Toronto jazz trio BADBADNOTGOOD and Ghostface Killah are back with a new track from their upcoming Sour Soul LP, which will feature the Wu-Tang rapper on every track. On this new track called “Ray Gun”, BBNG let loose and deliver a cool cinematic, jazz-infused sound while Ghostface and rap legend DOOM trade fearsome verses with their signature cinematic flair. BBNG explained:
“When we first heard we had a chance to get DOOM on a track for Sour Soul, we were ecstatic and also a little nervous. DOOM and Ghostface are two of our favourite rappers and creating an instrumental that blended both Ghostface’s raw powerful flow and DOOM’s poetic quirkiness proved challenging. We ended up with an arranged form that had also had an improvised feel to it, and a string and horn arrangement at the end inspired by DOOM’s love of sampling old movie soundtracks.”
