Kraftykid & Vangs Music Want You to Take Notes on “Homework Edit”

Verse 1

The first verse sees Kraftykid discuss everything from gang culture, to braggadocio, to politics, to fears of losing loved ones in a slew of one-liners. With only two 8-bar verses this song went over well with its listeners, clocking in at over 14,000 streams. People want short and sweet these days.

Verse 2

Verse 2 sees Krafty switch up the flow to talk more braggadocio before leaving people with a confidence boost. “How you know your league if you just stay dribbling?” We also hear an interesting reverse melody in the last third of the song. Listen out for when the reverse 808s kick in.

Artwork

In summer 2018 I took a solo trip to Hiroshima. On that trip I also took the liberty of visiting Rabbit Island and Miyajima. I like solo trips. This picture was taken in Miyajima after most of the tourists had gone home or back to their hotels. But on its own it was missing something, so I added my special touch, iridescence. I chose this vibe because it reminded me of art associated with Chillhop, and Chillhop music usually have “homework edits” which are hour-long versions of the songs for students to study to. Well played, Krafty.

Moral

If there’s one takeaway from this song, it’s simple. People always talk about dating leagues but in my opinion if you’re funny, well-presented and honest you’d be surprised what you can achieve.
