Shoe Fits
By
TASH
It’s been a while since I dropped a single review so, I
thought I’d get this one sorted as it has been one that I have put back due to
time constraints.
Shoe Fits is a recent single release from TASH of the
Alkaholiks and is the first release from an upcoming EP Attention Is The
Drug, to be released through AlkaRhythm. The single is also produced by
Sbvce.
Now, being a Hip Hop head, I have listened to the Likwit
crew on and off over the years, and they have dropped some solid joints over
those years. so, it’s a pleasure to be able to bring you my take on this
single. I also have to give props to my man John Dugan (JD Hip Hop Reviews) who
brought my attention to this one, otherwise it might have been one I missed.
So, lets get into this one…
Shoe Fits see’s Sbvce bring us a heavy bass drum
driven sound with claps and keys to give us a sound that vibrates your mind
from the get-go, getting you bouncing and nodding along. Tash uses his slick
wordplay to bring us a highly enjoyable track that speaks on being comfortable
in your own skin. The phrase ‘If The Shoe Fits’ is one of those phrases that
can used both ways as a compliment or criticism, implying that something which
is said or suggested about someone is true and they should accept it as such.
So, while it can be used to promote humility and self-awareness, it can also be
used in a derogatory fashion as well. Here TASH is simply saying that you
should be comfortable as you are, be the person you want to be, so ‘If The Shoe
Fits, Wear It’, it’s as simple as that.
The message in this track might be plain and simple but.
It’s not one that is often put across in such a matter-of-fact way. TASH gives
us the message plain simple and invites us to wear it as we see fit. It doesn’t
matter what others think, it’s how you feel that counts. You have to be you, in
the best way that makes you happy, and that is the key to this, you being the
best expression of your true self and not something that comes from peer
pressure.
It’s good to have that Likwit sound back with some new vibes
and giving us something to think about as well as enjoy along the way.
Shoe Fits is out now.
I’ll see ya next time,
Steve.
