Fallin- slowthai

Slowthai via Apple Music:

“When I was making this, I was imagining a monkey in an astronaut suit floating through space, floating endlessly, and he’s not going anywhere and he’s not got anywhere to be…”

That’s it. That’s the blog.

No more overthinking, no more poetic breakdowns — I’m just gonna start copy-pasting Apple Music interviews from now on 😒.

Jokes aside, this song hits hard. It starts off with that numb, hollow feeling — like you’re stuck in your own head, floating through life on autopilot — and as it goes on, Slowthai’s rage builds like a slow burn turning into a wildfire. His voice gets angrier, more cracked, more raw… and the production follows. The instruments start to unravel with him. It’s chaotic but intentional. It’s a breakdown with a beat.

It’s one of those songs that feels like spiraling in real time. And somehow, it sounds amazing doing it.

Thanks a lot for reading.
