Trap legend RL Grime is gearing up for the release of sophomore album Nova. Building onto the hype comes the release of a new single entitled ‘Era’. An anxious introduction builds immense excitement as tribal undertones drift under a massive drum build. A perfectly placed Redman sample ushers us into a drop that’s grande and wordly (think ‘Core’ & ‘Waiting’). What may be the most exciting aspect of the release is the finale where Grime flips the script and drops it into a crazy DnB section. ‘Era’ gives listeners everything they’ve come to expect from RL Grime and just enough of something new.
