737) Pink Oculus - Sweat

Warning - This video may potentially trigger seizures for people with photosensitive epilepsy. Viewer discretion is advised.
Hailing from Amsterdam, Esperanza Geronima Denswil (otherwise known as Pink Oculus) is extremely talented when it comes to songwriting, producing, rapping, and performing. Her band Badjekkah is in charge of the heavily electronic hip hop instrumentals accompanying her in this song. The backing track has inspired fans to make Massive Attack and Roots Manuva comparisons, but her smooth vocals and slippery rhymes remind us more of artists such as Lauryn Hill and Ester Rada. This piece is a fresh, unique standout and the confidence and untouchable energy in its lyrics are empowering to listen to. We love it when you can tell just how brilliant and forward-thinking the minds behind a tune are from only one listen, and that's definitely the case here.
Enjoy! ♪
