G-Eazy - Lost In Translation
Producer: G-Eazy, co-prod. Swiss Chriss, Christoph Andersson
Album: None (Promo Single)
Label: Unsigned
When I first saw that G-Eazy’s new single was titled Lost in Translation I prepared to make a series of jokes about the Bill Murray and Scarlett Johansson flick of the same name, until I saw the cover art and pressed play. Huh, looks like the track actually does reference the movie and samples hit single PONPONPON by Japanese pop singer きゃりーぱみゅぱみゅ (aka Kyary Pamyu Pamyu). After watching the frankly insane original I didn’t think it was possible to translate the track into English hip-hop, but Eazy remarkably pulls it off, recruiting producers Swiss Chriss and Christoph Andersson to man the boards alongside him and flip the track into a bouncing but still anchored beat. On the mic Eazy plays the international man of luxury role, pausing in his cross-Pacific pursuits only long enough to shout out Scarlett Johansson’s a*s (good call). While this cinematic affair isn’t tied to a larger project, those in the market for yet more Eazy living should check out his recent The Endless Summer album, available for free stream and download right now.

This is definitely a Banger (as he says in the first verse). The beat is creative and knockin' at the same time. G-Easy's flow is excellent on the beat. Really good music. ***Downloading now!

I'm telling you, this kid is primed for stardom. There is a reason he is nominated for a Best of the Booth award.

Every since I herd his first track I knew there was something dope about him. He is going to have a HUGE year in 2012, just watch.

I think G-Eazy is a better producer than MC, but he's above average at both. I like how he flipped the sample here.
