After closing out last year with his CITADEL project, South-East London’s Jim Legxacy opened 2022 with a new single, “Eye Tell (!)”, and now he’s back with another, “Hit It Light It Twist It”, expanding on his soulful, minimalist, indie-leaning sound.
The track’s already whipped up a healthy buzz on TikTok and it’s now spreading even wider. A slight change-up from the last single, “Hit It Light It Twist It” slows things down a bit: the looping guitar melody and percussion that comes in at the halfway point give the track its energy, but for the most part, it’s all about Jim’s wistful vocals.
And, just to add to the song’s ghostly quality, he also closes with some haunting snippets from Skepta’s grime hit, “Nasty”, taking the place of the main vocals before fading out in the track’s dying moments.
