Even as Lake Michigan has chilled to a still, and epic winds have seized his city of Chicago, rapper, J1S, nevertheless finds a way to make something warm, wavy and hypnotic. Supported by the likes of O.J. and Sonny Trill, he delivers “Rodeo”; a tranquilizing, first cut from the upcoming “Gipetto” project. Synonymous to its cover-art, “Rodeo” is an euphoric blend of colors and emotions. It is backdropped by a trippy, electric guitar; which glides ghostly about a world of bubbling synths, ambience, and grooving trap drums. A disembodied, electronic vocal gives further depth to the instrumental; washing you in waves of melody and elation. Before long, J1S’s rhymes are the only thing keeping your head above the water. With the trillest charisma and poise fathomable, a hook is served into the mix. One that sends the chilled-out energy of “Rodeo” swirling around you. Yes, J1S has bars; and the performance of O.J. and Sonny Trill on this record is to be equally respected. However, when it comes to creating a energy, emotion, and overall world, through sound alone, this Chicago artist’s talent is incomparable. “Rodeo” is a ride to die for. If it is any indication of what “Gipetto” has to offer, that project will make a tidal wave once dropped.
