1. JPEGMAFIA - THE BENDS!
My favorite of JPEGMAFIA’s EP! releases throughout 2020, this song details the hardships Peggy faced at the time and several slick politically charged bars - in true JPEGMAFIA fashion. Funnily enough, this track references both Radiohead (through the title) and Earl (with the mention of Earl’s former stage name, Sly Tendencies). 2. Radiohead - The Bends The title track to their sophomore record, Radiohead contemplates who’s there for them when they are needed. Another ode to the negative, high-pressure side to a life of newly acquired fame, this song excellently depicts exactly what “the bends” is. 3. Earl Sweatshirt - The Bends Although this is one of my least favorite tracks instrumentally on Earl’s renowned 2018 record Some Rap Songs, simply acting as a means of passage to the following song “Azucar”, it does provide a bar here or there worthy of thought.
