This episode’s highlighted track:
Wildcookie - Serious Drug
Serious Drug begins with a samba-like, scattershot sample that provides the backdrop for vocalist Anthony Mills’ funky falsetto; his lilting voice lets us know that “cocaine is a serious drug” by name checking artists like Rick James, Amy Winehouse and Robert Downey Jr., among others who have fallen victim to its devastating effects. In addition to being incredibly funky, it’s also admittedly funny as Mills lists cocaine’s debilitating effects with a splash of color, “Smokey Robinson could have wrote way more songs, Richard Pryor didn’t have to catch on fire, and Natalie Cole lookin’ way too old.” The Brighton, UK duo known as Wildcookie consists of producer Freddie Cruger and vocalist Anthony Mills who dropped their experimental album Cookie Dough on Tru Thoughts records in 2011. The lyrics of Anthony Mills blend perfectly with the sophisticated piano melody and offbeat rhythms from producer Freddie Cruger—this catchy track would make anyone rethink a dalliance with Charlie.
