Does Ed Skrein play piano?
He strives for a deliberately underground sound, seemingly drawing from a youth full of A Tribe Called Quest and the adolescent discovery of Aesop Rock. There’s a jazziness to his beats, as well as plenty of pianos.
On “Once Upon a Skrein,” the EP’s standout track, he displays a solid sense of humor. I mean, the title’s a silly riff on his own name. He begins his second verse, “Tequila, strawberries, ginger beer / Has got me thinking clear / ’Cause the gentleman gets blurred just drinking beer, listening to Cher.” He might struggle with rapping, but even he realizes it’s a bit much to glorify too greatly. The hook goes, “Spark it, shit on the carpet, and pass it,” hardly glamorous.
