Amsterdam’s Latifah crashed into the cultural consciousness with an explosive appearance on the music channel 101Barz, but her coarse delivery on that landmark performance showed just one side of her sublime rapping technique. Since her career began in earnest she’s showcased her astounding verbal dexterity on the swooning neo-soul jam “Oeps”, but the glittering dancehall of “Avec Me” is also illuminated by her presence, riding the rails of her attentive and precise flow. She even uses ratatat 808s and seismic bass as a punchy trap background over which she unveils a chilling autotuned drawl.
