“I think I need a little wiggle room,” she says on the M.I.A.-like “The Way It Goes,” and she allows herself more this time.If you’re not a fan of Future’s music you can at the very least respect his hustle. It’s a hip-hop skate-punk set, with Moolchan’s often playful, sometimes pointed raps again built on stark beats and bass lines, but fleshed out more with keyboard or guitar textures.
Highway Hypnosis, at 13 songs in 29 minutes, is her third and longest album, but it still races by. While not quite adhering to the rigorous, Instagram-able brevity favored by Philly’s Tierra Whack, Moolchan, who came out of Washington, D.C.’s DIY scene, keeps her tracks sharp and focused and under three minutes. So casual fans can add “Call the Coroner” to the highlight reel, with its hypnotic Buju Banton-cum-“Bodak Yellow” melody and fun boasts like “I don’t have no stylist,” as well as the addictive “Krazy but True,” which invites us to imagine a “fishtank with a shark in it” and a penthouse living room “with a garage in it,” while credibly taking credit for the way 2019 rappers “drop your mixtapes, your adlibs, and everything.” The turntable scratching(!) on “Crushed Up” will make you look up, but so will “Servin Killa Kam’s" “bought a new toy” just because you thought he said “toilet.” - Dan WeissĬoncision is crucial to Sneaks, the solo project of Eva Moolchan. The others only hit a nerve sporadically, and this one has 20 tracks. How many times can one warble variations on “When it come to emotions, I play camouflage,” not to mention “Jumpin’ on another jet / Jumpin’ on another jet” in the same robo-tripping quaver? One Future album is excellent: Dirty Sprite 2, named for the cough syrup habit he says he’s kicked ( The WIZRD’s “Overdose” actually refers to his abundance of “swag”).
