Opening with an old-school nostalgic opening beat, Burgess enters with verve and stature on “Little Drink”. The soulful hip-hop tune from the Kent based artist takes a distinctly boom-bap approach to his soundscape, crafting together this distinctly lackadaisical vibe in the beat and the chorus that’s contrasted by his more fiery and forceful delivery in the verses. Brought to life with immersive story-telling through Burgess’s poignant and pointed lyricism, “Little Drink” takes you down a the vibrancy and grandeur of London’s night life through personal experiences being narrated with class and substance in equal measure.
The entire composition of “Little Drink” feels inherently classy and stylish, the kind of slow moving yet impactful delivery that hits you with its message and soundscape in every note of the beat. A refreshing spin on the classical bedrock, it’s got the class of classics with the freshness of today.
