Deadmics is presenting “Lily Livered,” an honest alternative hip hop track with a charming old-fashioned atmosphere. The instrumental side of the song, by produced by Rob Castro, is nicely soothing, featuring pleasing piano lines and a lovely string section reminiscent of a black and white film. The addition of the horn solo enhances the warmth of the overall production. Thematically, the song discusses feelings of jealousy and vulnerability, as well as recognizing them. It deals with the conflict of feeling the dopest but not receiving recognition for it. On one hand, it seems uncool to crave acknowledgement, but on the other, it feels justified. Ultimately, it’s a reflection on both sides of the situation. You may hate the world. On not. Either way click play and dive in.
