Hundred Waters featuring Chance the Rapper, Moses Sumney and Robin Hannibal “Show Me Love (Skrillex remix)”

Even just a year ago you’d see “Skrillex remix” attached to a song title and reasonably expect it’d be really fast and aggro. He’s a bit more subtle these days, and so this track is allowed to retain its gentle warmth even as he layers in dynamic beats and very sparkly synth notes. Instead of amping up the energy, he amps of the sentiment, and so the song feels like a big, teary hug. Chance the Rapper and the stylistically similar Moses Sumney are perfectly suited to this sound – it flatters their melodic rhymes, and nicely frames the kind-hearted humanity at the core of their aesthetic. Chance’s verse is brief, but it’s a super-concentrated dose of his seemingly effortless charisma and relentless Chicago boosterism that makes me even hungrier for a full album from him than even his SNL appearance or album-stealing verse on Kanye’s “Ultralight Beam.” That record can’t come quickly enough.
