One last transmission in 2014 from one of hip-hop’s most intriguing new crews, BROCKHAMPTON (born of the ashes of AliveSinceForever).

Previous 5 On It entrant Matt Champion teams up with talented Memphis rapper Jon Waltz (who here sounds at peak powers) over a sprawling nine minutes on new single “BURN,” rapping about the ebb and flow of relationships over an instrumental that evolves from mellow and watery to uptempo electro-disco reminiscent of Daft Punk. It’s an ambitious companion piece to Kevin Abstract’s equally sprawling recent single “bubblegum / iwb” and a fitting end to a year in which the collective began tapping into its ample potential.
