Why do we like this?

Just short of three minutes long, this memorable song goes straight in, quickly establishing a rugged feel with a glossy finish. 

Theophilus London flows with the unforgiving charisma of a young Jay-Z over a lo-fi, retro-inspired dark and synthy groove. All the while, Kevin Parker showers the thunderous beat with a soft and candied chorus. A Kavinsky-esque baritone synth-line runs throughout, creating a sinister tone while the drums contrast playfully. All of these elements set up the perfect stage for our two cinematic heroes, who together adorn the soundtrack with blazing rhymes and sedated melodies.
