Smoke DZA – “Outside My Mind” (Prod. Flying Lotus)

New York rap stoner Smoke DZA has never been an especially experimental type. He’s a terse formalist, sounding hard even when he’s talking about smoking enough to send his brain drifting off into the ether. So it’s interesting to hear him team up with a real way-out producer like Flying Lotus. FlyLo produced DZA’s latest track, which is really a three-in-one, going through three movements in five minutes. DZA adapts to the different beats beautifully, and he throws a Bernie Sanders endorsement in there. Check it out below, via Nah Right.

I think that cover art might be what swings the Democratic primary.
