Showcasing their strongest techniques while honoring the label with pure style.

 “I curated this project to affirm the belonging of hip-hop & electronic music in a single space. Otherwise known as future beats, this project brings together soulful and jazzy boom bap production riddled with soulful rap vocals and electronic sound design. The subgenre was greatly inspired and developed by the likes of Flying Lotus, Mr. Carmack, and quite a few of the artists featured on this project including Oshi, Lophiile, DECAP, whereisalex, & ROMderful. It was no easy undertaking bringing together these staples of the producer world, but over the past year, I’ve been lucky enough to have everyone place their faith in me. After over two years since the last issue, Good Society Volume 3 is our version of the ultimate genre fluid hip-hop album.” – Josh Yamini

But as one problem wanes, another stands in the way of his dream. “I let down my defense/How am I supposed to leave you alone/In your heart I made a home,” every therapist who listens to the problems others, goes somewhere to be relieved of theirs. His latest success has created a rift. He’s traveling more, spending less time with her. Ayotemi attempts to reassure her that nothing has changed as the lifestyle surrounding him evolves in real-time. It’s a balancing act, and one of the chords tries to soften with each strum mirroring the pulsating strums of the drums.

Fully embracing his role of minister, there’s an understanding that the people won’t listen to someone they foresee themselves empathizing with. An image of perfection is only suitable for marketing purposes. But to warm the soul, being willing to let fans get a glare of the madness inside fosters that connection. ‘Letterman’ is a man who is finally able to love himself and return it to those guided through this journey. It’s gentle yet firm, transferring the affirmations from himself to his relationships.

Stay Grounded, Stay Golden. Mountains and rivers will move over you.

AYOTEMI, ‘PEON’

Right out the gate, we’re met with this wavy synth that we ride throughout the intro before the voice of Ayotemi finally peaks through the mix. The opening seconds of the first verse are a perfect example of Ayotemi’s versatility. An off-kilter flow that perfectly fills the spaces between the ever-increasing percussion elements perfectly is soon interrupted by a switch-up that offers a smoother ride along with the beat as its drops. Effortlessly switching from singing to falsetto and back to rapping is something to marvel at, and ‘peon’ has plenty of that lying within. Check out the whole thing down below!
