Song: Rollercoaster
Album: Torn Together
Vocals Creature ft. Homeboy Sandman
Beat: Preservation
Lurking the shadows of hip-hop's ever-changing landscape, Creature, one of NY's most respected D.I.Y. artists is definitely back. Less than a month after leaking "Sore Eyes", his triumphant return to rap (featuring Cannibal Ox's Vordul Mega), the Corona native previews another gem from his upcoming album,Torn Together, "Rollercoaster", featuring none other than Homeboy Sandman.
"Rollercoaster" has all the ingredients of a true-school inspired hit. Producer Preservation(Ka, Yasiin Bey) puts an old school drum loop into a blender with dusty keys and bass, creating the kind of jazzy, but jagged-edge beat real hip-hop heads have been starving for. Creature makes quick work of it all, finding the perfect verbal sparring partner in Homeboy Sandman who's dense, dizzying word play rounds out the track. "Been down and out with my kinfolk. Made a little bit, but we need more." Creature has returned to get his...and if these first two glimpses of Torn Together are any indication...hip-hop may demand he stick around for awhile.
