I know what you’re thinking: Jared Evan has never shied away from channeling his angst into his work, but “Kill Me?” That’s a touch dramatic, isn’t it? Don’t fret—not only does the Zone 4/Interscope recording artist not have a death wish, but his predicament on this newly-released cut falls squarely within the category of good problems to have. The follow-up to the reader-acclaimed Traffic Light, the freestyle series alum‘s latest album leak finds him caught in the web of a female who can turn him on—and get him off—like none other. The downside, however, is that her absence sends him into unbearable withdrawal. Over project collaborator !llmind‘s grimy synth grooves, accented with My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy-style distorted vocal samples, Evan compares the woman in question to every habit-forming narcotic in the book. On the hook, he paraphrases Beck’s ‘90’s classic, Loser: “I’m addicted baby, so why don’t you kill me?” While The 4th Chapter has yet to receive a solid drop date, fans who haven’t already copped the projects can get their fix of Jared Evan by downloading one (or both) of his Booth-sponsored 2011 releases, UnCOVERED and Back & Fourth.

We already knew what Jared and !ll were capable of together, so their collaborative efforts on this record don't come as a surprise. The industrial, rock-infused production provides Jared with a nice sonic landscape to do his thing. His thing? That half-rapped, half-sung flow, which stradles the fence of several genres. Plus, who doesn't love that classic "Thriller" laugh used on the front and back end.

I like the beat on this track. Good singing and just good all around. I like the lyrics and the vibe. I'll give it a few spins.

!llmind always kills it behind the boards! Jared has talent, but his style isn't something I would listen to regularly.

This guy has the potential to drop a near classic right out of the gate. His versatility is incredible.
You guys must be fired up, you all are really bringing it with the features lately. I dig the Vincent Price laugh. 4.5 stars |
