For this week’s release, 1999 WRITE THE FUTURE has brought together 88rising‘s Rich Brian and indie artist Cuco on a dreamy new single dubbed “silence STArEs me down.”
Clocking in at just over three minutes, the track finds the unexpected duo cruising over a mesmerizing beat, co-produced by Rich Brian himself. Cuco kicks it off over the shoegaze melody, before Rich Brian jumps in for some crisp bars.
“Then she said I live in the hell of my own design / But when we’re talkin’ goals it gets harder to pick a side / The trophies I collect might seem a lil pointless without your smile / But ’til then I might just say, ‘Thank you for poppin’ by,’” he signs off.
“silence STArEs me down” arrives after last week’s “SLOPES” which featured 88rising’s Warren Hue alongside Offset.
