Aaron Rose recently reunited with his frequent collaborators Joey Bada$$ and Chuck Strangers for a menacing new track titled “FTW.” Given the personnel on this track, it is to be expected that it is laced with heavy bars, but instrumentally this is not at all what I was expecting, as it is a highly atmospheric trap beat with punchy electric guitar accents. Rose mans the hook and does a fantastic job, setting the tone for the whole track and Joey returns to old form with a flow that is reminiscent of Joey’s earlier work. Chuck Strangers also offers a guest verse that is solid and fits the mood of the track well.
