Alchemist Loose Change

It’s no secret that Alchemist and Earl Sweatshirt have mutual respect for one another’s artistry. In fact, Alchemist recently praised Earl’s unique nature, revealing that the young emcee has become somewhat of an A&R for him. So much so that he actively sought the Earl stamp of approval for his upcoming EP This Thing Of Ours, on which Sweatshirt appears in abundance. Today, the pair have reunited on the new single “Loose Change,” which picks up where last week’s “Nobles” left off.

Taking to Alc’s sample-driven production, Earl wastes little time in weaving a few cryptic pictures for the masses to unpack. “You be with the boys and I’ma be with the dawgs,” he spits. “Blood on the Travies, it serve as a challenge coin / I’m the voice, I had to speak for the org, passed the preacher / Smashed up weed on the organ, master teachings.” While the crux of Earl’s message isn’t always entirely clear, damned if he doesn’t sound like a natural over Alchemist beats. Behold the pair of kindred spirits at work right here, and look for This Thing Of Ours to land in full on Friday, April 30th.

Lyrics

[Intro: Earl Sweatshirt]
(I’m back for my people)
Uh
Yo, yo, yeah
Uh, uh, yeah, yeah

[Verse: Earl Sweatshirt]
You be with the boys and I’ma be with the dawgs
Blood on the Travies, it serve as a challenge coin
I’m the voice, I had to speak for the org, passed the preacher
Smashed up weed on the organ, master teachings
Actually couldn’t hold me (Who’s gonna stop me?)
I was hungry
Mama made her son read, so I’m hunting glances ’til the peak
That still didn’t feed me
I had to get a feel for the whole thing
Peeking the orbs, speak on what I absorb
Reserved boundaries, I found a different route to explore and run around deep
I told you ’bout the reaching, you found out and screamed, that sound to me like a loss
I had a bad bout with grief and I tossed a match on it
Kerosene, burned the ring down to ashes
And memories, feather feet behind
And ahead of the beat, throwing ’em off

[Chorus]
Arriving in the nick of time, these niggas nickel and diming
I’m giving ’em five and sliding, my way up the street
Pretty penny, you my luckiest find, skin copper
Titties bouncing, save a generous slice for me
Please ([?])
Please, save a generous slice for me
Change jingling in my pocket
These niggas nickel and diming
I’m giving ’em five, pretty penny, you my luckiest find, skin copper
Titties bouncing, save a generous slice for me
(Please, please, please, please)
