“Big Leezie” has crafted one of his most immersive soundscapes yet for the single “Vulture Island Gmix” to all the audience out there with a great vibe. “Big Leezie” is an Upcoming trap Artist out of Houma Louisiana. If ever the soundtrack to an intense movie scene aided the moment in sweeping you off your feet, consider this a cinematic experience built for precisely that sort of peak.
There’s a superb use of contrast showcased throughout this release, the fast pace of that distantly rhythmic synth-hum creates a manic aura that stands in juxtaposition with the delicacy of the surrounding waves of video and indeed the gentle, awesome rap vocal lines. What this does is build a mood that feels quietly crucial, as if the melody is essential but the energy is equally important in reminding you that time is running out. Indeed, the energetic visuals that accompany the track during the video add significantly to the awesomeness as well. It’s a powerful thing to witness, and the more you listen, the louder you play it, the more you let it take over – the stronger and more entrancing and inspiring the experience becomes.
The opening few moments of this song lay out a thread that seems to be the main element or strength of the song – the hook is presented from the offset, the music has a certain sense of rhythm, Big Leezies’ voice is gentle yet striking. As things progress though, the featured vocal and the structural aspects bring through a track that has far more to offer than the simple rhythm and melody of that key line.
Performance-wise the track is everything it needs to be. The leading voice carries the melody and ideas in a genuine, powerful manner, and the soundscape has been captured and produced to a superb standard – you can, and should, turn the music up loud and let it work its magic. Big Leezie knows exactly the sort of sound they want to present, and they know exactly how to do that – this single feels authentic, relevant, and beautifully interesting at the same time.
