Shad is at it again and unveils today a surprising punchy track and its video titled “Work”, premiered by Complex.
Shad tells us: “Like ‘Out of Touch’, “Work” was another song written pre-pandemic that is (sadly) even more timely now. I knew I wanted to write a song specifically about two aspects of work: One, the way so many of our jobs are disconnected from a sense of meaning and purpose, and from the people and places they impact. And two, just the increasing precarity and scarcity of work. Also as with ‘Out of Touch”, I wanted the song to hold both the irony/humour and heaviness of our situation.”
Produced by and featuring Skratch Bastid, this track was built on a blistering sample from art-rockers We Are The City and mixes old and new influences, taking Shad’s flexible flows into exciting new territory.
