Mr Slipz crafts another fire production as they tee up new album

Just when you thought the rap-well had dried up, Verbz & Mr Slipz saddle up to ride at dawn.

Back with a fresh song, their new single Mémoires De Perte is art and poignancy in motion.

What Mémoires De Perte Sounds Like

Filled with vivid imagery, the rapper delights fans once again with a poetic brace of slick bars over boom-bap beats.

“haunted by the memories I carry in my chest.”

It’s an inscription of grief, mental solitude, and the heavy weight of a loss. Through melancholic production, their performance overtly exhibits sorrow, pain, and anguish. Audiences will feel captivated by its smoky, wistful atmosphere anchored by the comprehension of feeling lost.

The production continues a long line of collaborations with Mr Slipz, who cooks. Its video — set against the backdrop of London — showcases an eclipsed life of sonder. Compositionally, it drifts into a bout of introspective sound, complimented by Verbz’ clever wordplay and tender delivery both technical and fluid.

The Verdict

It’s another win for the duo as they continue to play with fire on their terms. For hip-hop heads, it’s sonically metaphorical, and a style that will leave listeners with a child-like sense of wonder, spearheaded by a format they’ve mastered.
