Earlier today, Lil Skies dropped off his latest project The Life Of A Dark Rose. The fourteen track project has Skies flexing every bit of his strengths throughout the project and overall, it has something for everyone. One track in particular that meshes his various skills together is the second song on the project, "The Clique."

Lil Skies "The Clique" is a definite highlight of his most recent project. The production alone stands out among the other tracks off The Life Of A Dark Rose. The production is led by an classy violin progression that contrasts the gritty bass in the percussion. The song sounds triumphant in a way like he's finally starting to see the fruits of his labor. He stands by his loyalty to his friends and family that stood by him through his struggles.

Quotable Lyrics
Ouuuh, do the dash in the whip
Got a .30, I'm like Curry
I just aim and I swish
Make her sing like a birdie,
She take flights for the dick
