2017 certified-jam in modern West Coast hip-hop.

Kendrick Lamar’s magnetic, confident bark.

Stripped-down piano-and-808 beat with a rubber-band bass hit.

Instead of guessing randomly, combine the hints above with active listening techniques:

Cross-reference decade and genre: Once you know the release decade from Hint 1, filter your mental catalog to the dominant bands and producers active during that era. Check our 8 decades hub and 16 genre modes.
Identify drum production: Does the opening beat match the acoustic snare traits of rock or the sub-bass 808 glides of modern trap? Review the song recognition guide.
Use search autocomplete: If Hint 2 gives you a strong suspicion about the vocalist, type the artist name into the search bar to review their top discography tracks.
