MIKE is one of the more eccentric and ever-changing artists in modern day hip-hop. He can go super lyrical and abstract on something like Faith Is A Rock or Burning Desire. Or he can be looser and dip into more contemporary sounds on Pinball. The latter is his latest offering following a very impressive and diverse 2023 in which those more experimentative projects dropped. One track to make a note of is MIKE's "On God."
Pinball is a collaboration tape that sees MIKE working with Tony Seltzer. He is also a native New Yorker like his rap counterpart, hailing from Brooklyn. The tape just dropped today, but leading up to it, there were a couple of singles released beforehand. Those included "R&B" and "Underground Kingz."
Listen To "On God" By MIKE, Tony Seltzer, Earl Sweatshirt, & Tony Shhnow
"On God" is one of three tracks to boast a feature. In this case MIKE and Seltzer are teaming up with two other "underground kingz," Earl Sweatshirt and Tony Shhnow. It is a bit of a weird mix, but they all work together very well. Every rapper on the track gives a subdued performance which complements Tony S.'s woozy and wavy trap-like beat. You will be floating on a cloud after listening to this one.

Quotable Lyrics:
She know I'm odd, I'm always a problem
You know I'm on & off, hydraulic
I cannot talk, it's all in your pocket
I milly rock when I saw the dеposit
Ain't off the top but it's off the noggin
I'll do you wrong, my dawg can vouch
