Aesop Rock sigue trabajando en la continuación de su grandioso disco The Impossible Kid del 2016 y como muestra está su nueva canción llamada Rogue Wave que pueden escuchar aquí mismo. El rapero también se dio tiempo para hablar un poco sobre esta y lo que le espera en el futuro.
“Rogue Wave” feels like a long journal entry to me — perhaps in the vein of “Hot Dogs” and “Klutz.” I really enjoy skipping the hook entirely. It doesn’t always work — but when it does it just feels right. To me, this song is a small boat lost at sea, rowing for hours, days, losing all track of time and direction — 360 degrees of nothing but ocean.
I’ve been a little timid over the years to showcase my own drawings, probably because I’ve been out of practice, and also because people know me for my music. That said — I’ve been drawing a fair amount in recent years, and finally decided to collect a lot of the images together for a music video. My long time collaborator and friend Rob Shaw pieced them together in a way that feels similar to the song — an uninterrupted stream of information.
