Retch is currently prepping his album Finesse the World for release sometime next year, and after sharing one track from it ("Guz Gon Blow"), he drops what he describes as a "throw away joint" on his SoundCloud. "Facts" is its name, and the track has Retch flowing over a tranquil, jazzy, Nujabes-esque beat.

Despite the chill sonic qualities of the music, Retch's delivery is tight-lipped and bug-eyed as ever, and he sounds like he's pouring his all out into every word. He raps a single verse, then improvises a Patois-laden hook before letting the song fade out ahead of the two minute mark. 

Quotable Lyrics

Back when everyone you knew was your cousin
And you got to high school and they run it, ain't it funny nigga
Moms ain't buy me too much 'cause I ain't act right
I ain't never get that Chia Pet or that Clap Light
