Skepta had a couple of songs on his latest LP, Konnichiwa, that skewed towards more North American sounds, but his new loosie, "Coming Soon," is certainly his most out-of-character and weirdest collab with an American artist yet, going embracing the playful, cartoonish world of SoundCloud trap on his Makonnen and Céon-assisted "Coming Soon". The record wouldn't have sounded out of place on Lil Yachty's last project, and is certainly a surprising move from Skepta, who nevertheless sounds comfortable on the warm, child-like instrumental. While his delivery is a little more reeled in than usual, his bars are as hard as ever, closing his second verse with a perfect brag, "dropped Konnichiwa that's the blueprint now you're stuck with me".
Quotable Lyrics:
We predicted you would switch up
When we made the plan, dickhead
See them fuckin' with my style when I'm in Japan
Cause the man makes the clothes
Coming Soon
Skepta teams with Makonnen and Céon on "Coming Soon".
