Young Black Boy


Swedish artist Adam Tensta is responsible for today's track 'Young Black Boy'.  The lyrics tell a familiar tale many of us are aware of, so it's good to hear a catchy tune with a decent message.

Thick, dirty electro bass perfectly complements a banging beat.  The music is the star here.  Adam's lyrical style is sometimes too simplistic and often jars with the mood and pace of the tune.

Once you give it a few listens you start to forget the details and enjoy this for the banger it was meant to be.  I especially like the bridge, which briefly slows down to a two-step for a few seconds.  This is crying out to be remixed.
