Ray Rife samples the iconic piano chords from Radiohead's "Pyramid Song" on his new effort, letting the sample play out chopped and screwed before restructuring them in a driving boom-bap style.
That's only the first half, as the song turns over into a string-laden sample, as Rife incorporates dialogue and sound effects to create a narrative within the song.
The Long Island rapper is among the final four Heatseekers for this week.

Quotable Lyrics:
On the streets
And they different from the army
They been shootin' recrutin' soldiers
Well before Atari
