On Iconic, Spitten Image is able to lay out some introspective bars as a haunting backing beat adds further gravity to each lyric. There’s a smart tack taken with the production here as each side (vocal / instrumental) recedes a bit to allow the other part ample time to shine. The straight-forward buckshot that Spitten Image fires here is honest and earnest, coming forth as utterly unique in an era where seemingly every rapper apes individuals that came before them. The complexity of Spitten Image’s delivery during Iconic is impressive; no matter the hurtles he makes it through, the resulting track ends that much stronger as a result. Peep out Iconic and let us know what you think.
