ArtOfficial - Migraine
Artist: ArtOfficial
Producer: ArtOfficial
Album: Vitamins & Minerals
Label: Unsigned
I know what you’re thinking. Isn’t naming a song Migraine kind of like naming a chicken restaurant Salmonella or an airline Crash? Good point, but consider this: first, live instrument Miami crew ArtOfficial have never been ones to do the predictable, and second, thanks to smooth live instrumentation by Official members Danny Perez, Manny Patino, Ralf Valencia and Keith Cooper, Migraine is actually far more Tylenol than headache. Collectively produced by the group themselves, Migraine takes a sparse beat and punctuates it with distorted synths and horn riffs, all driven by a stuttering drum kit. Vocally emcees Logics and Newsense match the beat’s mellow personality, delivering flows that are on the surface non-threatening, until you start paying attention to the lyrics: “…hide your sons and daughters / you started getting shot at when you made yourself a target.” If you’re finding this jazz-influenced cut soothing that stress-induced headache, you’ll definitely want to check out their forthcoming album, Vitamins & Minerals, as well as keep an eye out for Migraine’s visual components, dropping next week.

i really like the horns in this song. The beat overall is terrific, but the horns are bomb. The hook is kinda catchy too.

@Far East Movement - Spammer is gone, sorry about that. I hate that, too. Trust me!
ArtOfficial is always dope, but this record didn't get me as hyped as their past materials did. Its very mellow in comparison.

The production is terrifically nasty but I think the hook could have used more attention.
