Bringing together a laidback flow alongside inspiring and introspective lyrics, Reedus 3m brings ‘The Message’ with a lackadaisical vibe to remember. Short and succinct, the song’s the perfect chilled out rap tune. It combines a delectably melodic lo-fi pitter patter backing beat with a relatively hard bass and percussive drum alongside the decidedly mellow delivery to create a unique contrast that makes the entire song feel that much smoother and sumptuous. Reminiscent of a Kota The Friend type vibe, ‘The Message’ has you slowly bopping your head back and forth as you find yourself very carefully listening to each bar of the pronounced and powerful enunciation that Reedus 3m delivers his verses with.
A far cry from a trap or autotune driven tune, The Message is pure hip-hop. It’s got a simple yet catchy beat, but it’s all about the rhythm and rhymes that Reedus is able to so easily and effortlessly deliver.
