Poorboy Richkid ~ Return to Saturn
Theeeeese dudes. Poorboy Richkid are without a doubt my favorite new duo to come out of the Bay. It helps that one half (Solis Luminati) is a close dear friend of mine, but frill though, you'd have to be a dummy to not sit back and recognize the talent wrapped up in this package. Remember when they came out to open up for Ana Sia in September's 'You're Welcome'? This new one (well, sorta new) titled 'Return To Saturn' packs a punch, on multiple levels. Not only is the writing top notch, with talks of staying true to yourself, following your dreams, not to get caught up in the rat race, but then there's the style and the song structure. This production is off the fucking chain, pulling in elements of glitch, hip-hop, emo, indie, and bass throwing it through some kind of creative conveyor belt, and churning out this guy, a polished off, new age, forward thinking, piece of top-notch experimental hip-hop. Oh, and then there's the completely entertaining and thoughtfully drawn out music video. Poorboy Richkid......let's all bow down...
