Loe Shimmy makes mellow music. He’s not for the clubs, he’s for late night drives and headphones. He provides listeners with subtle, melody-driven hip hop. The notion of him linking up with Cash Cobain was not a slam dunk on paper, given that Cobain has made his name with snappier, more dance-friendly hits. Fortunately, the combination worked out wonderfully. Loe Shimmy and Cash Cobain joined forces on the new single “Confession,” which manages to cater to the strengths of both artists.
The Cash Cobain stimulus package is in full effect here. The snaps, and the producer tag are heard at the top of the song, but “Confession” is a bit different. It’s glitchy, but it’s also slower, and more subdued than most of Cobain’s biggest hits. The change works. Loe Shimmy finds a pocket during the first verse, slipping effortlessly into the beat with his catchy delivery. Cobain has a different approach when he picks up the song during the second half, but the switch up works to the song’s advantage. Loe Shimmy and Cash Cobain sound wildly different on record, and it’s these sonic disparities that make “Confession” a compelling listen, ultimately.
