Trippie Redd is certainly one of the most versatile and idiosyncratic artists from the SoundCloud rap era, and it's a skill that he keeps showing off. Following his recent EKKSTACY collab "Problems," this new track featuring him is an even more creative, genre-fusing, and fresh-sounding offering: his remix of "sins (let me in)" by Kanii. While he's a relatively unknown artist in the mainstream, don't let that fool you; he hit upon a very interesting blend of slowed-down Jersey club, electronic ambiance, melodic R&B-style performances, and an overall woozy atmosphere. As such, this is an environment in which the Ohio artist feels right at home, and could've landed on his recently released A Love Letter To You 5.
In fact, it's hard to think of someone who would've fit this song's particular vibe more than Trippie Redd. After all, his strained but ear-grabbing cadence makes dreamy or psychedelic soundscapes reveal their true nature, as he fits them almost perfectly every time. However, from a lyrical and structural standpoint, "sins (let me in)" is nothing too remarkable, at least when compared to the innovation on display in the production. It's a lustful song about longing and about finally giving into these desires, despite the consequences they may hold. As such, these two artist clearly focus more on crafting a mood and an emotion more than a narrative, and either approach has something unique that the other can't replicate.

I can give you everything you've wanted
So keep me in your mind, girl, and everything is fine
