Background

Flatbush Zombies are a hip-hop trio (composed of rapper Meechy Darko, producer/rapper Erick Arc Elliott, rapper Zombie Juice) based in Flatbush, New York that formed in 2010. Since then, they have long been making waves in the New York underground with critically acclaimed mixtapes D.R.U.G.S. (2012) and BetterOffDEAD (2013) and for their work with other groups such as The Underachievers and Pro Era, together with whom they form the collective Beast Coast. Their more psychedelic, substantively lyrical approach to hip-hop gained them a relatively large following moving into the release of their debut LP, 3001: A Laced Odyssey in 2016. While the album was well received critically, it wasn't the immense success many hoped it to be, primarily due to the lack of sample-based beats that had been present in their earlier work. The trio came back in 2018 with their sophomore album, Vacation in Hell. In contrast to their first project, Vacation in Hell was large in musical scope, combining elements of pop, rock, and trap in hopes of appealing to a more mainstream audience. In their 2019 collaboration with The Underachievers and Pro Era as Beast Coast, they stuck to this more mainstream style and while fans of the trio were generally pleased with Erick's hazy production, Juice's passionate crooning, and Meechy's off-kilter delivery, all traits they had come to expect from the group, the album was largely panned for not being as innovative as it could have been. Going into 2020, Flatbush Zombies was relatively silent. While the tail end of 2019 saw the release of a single, "Monica" featuring Tech N9ne, to promote their third studio album, it wasn't until after the national George Floyd protests began in May 2020 that the trio began to release new material again. The promotional single for their new EP, "iamlegend," released on May 28, 2020, just two days after protests began to break out all across the United States. The single targeted themes of revolution, police brutality, and hope. With fans anticipating a more focused thematic approach and reinvigorated passion in their message, the trio released their debut EP now, more than ever on June 5, 2020.

Review

The 6-track, 20-minute EP now, more than ever kicks off with Zombie Juice singing "Get the lighter, roll the sticky, let's get high" on the opening cut "herb." The track is relatively simple in concept: it's an ode to marijuana. Even so, there appears to be a level of artistic progression and introspection that while characteristic to earlier Flatbush Zombies releases, carries much more weight in the context and short-form approach of the project. The track is backed by constantly evolving production from Erick Arc Elliott, transitioning between sections of twinkling pianos and reverberating guitars. Fan favorite Meechy Darko saves his powerful verse for last. On this track, as he does on much of the project, he questions human conflict and strife, claiming "the most dangerous animal on the planet is two-legged." Meechy delves into a more personal side of himself as well with the line "intoxication, so far from home, but still my problems waiting"; alcoholism being a vice that he will continue to revisit throughout the EP.

The following track "iamlegend" was released as the single just about a week prior to the release of the EP. It's clear why; the track's synth-backed trap-influenced beat and catchy hook makes it one of the most conventional songs on the record. But while the track doesn't have the bounce of "herb" or the emotional weight of later tracks such as "quicksand" and "when i'm gone," it still doesn't necessarily detract from the project's themes of unity, struggle, and suffering. In the context of the protests that defined the project, Meech's standout bar "destruction is a form of creation" indicates a penchant for revolution and its capacity to lead to a better future. Furthermore, Erick acknowledges in his verse that "[he] just hopes to see the day when niggas ain't shooting it out," sounding equal parts pained and optimistic. Zombie Juice takes up hook duty yet again, which isn't a slight at all, considering how effortless and natural his whispered chorus comes across on the track. His words betray the ubiquity of hustling and struggle throughout his life, yet carry behind them the significant hope and longing that characterizes much of the track, referencing a "light through the tunnel" that he alone has the power to pursue.

"quicksand" is particularly unique in that it is a Meechy solo track. This isn't new to the Flatbush Zombies catalog, we've seen Meechy perform on his own before in 3001 solo cuts like "Fly Away" and "Ascension." And just like on "Fly Away," Meechy proves on "quicksand" that he has a distinct talent for carrying emotion and pain through his one-of-a-kind voice. We've seen Meechy touch on his vices in "herb," but on "quicksand" the reference abruptly materializes into an honest recollection of his sins. The verses on this track will grab you instantly, because they're delivered in two different pitches at the same time. In the main channel, Meech's voice is muted, sounding restrained and barren. One could almost mistake him for being entirely emotionless, but lower in the mix he's delivering an entirely different performance of the same song, one where he sounds unhinged, chaotic, and on the verge of self-destruction. It's fitting for the message of the song because at times, his lyrics are shockingly nihilistic. "I swallow my courage and then I swallow my fears and then I swallow every ounce left in a bottle that's near," he delivers, sounding distant in one voice and deeply hurt in the other. "I know that drugs kill, so do cops, who cares?" is another line that packs a punch. He's essentially relaying his feeling of total inevitability of death in the context of the protests, recontextualizing his own addictions with respect to the present hostility toward the black race. It's lines like these that make this project much more than a response to the protests, but one that shows how the circumstances are perceived through the eyes of the Flatbush Zombies. Notably, the intro and outro to this track feature a sampled quote from Meechy's father, who died in January 2020, just months before the release of this EP. It's evident that Meech's pain in this track is the resultant of his death, a questioning of spiritual faith. After all, he begs listeners "don't pray for me" in the event of his own death, just moments after his father proclaims that Meechy is "the most important God." Religion, despite its relative presence in the concept of the EP, seems to be the furthest thing from Meech's mind; it's not an answer to his father's death nor is it an answer to the protests.

The subsequent track, "dirty elevator music," is my favorite track of 2020. It likely has my favorite production of any track from that year too; it sure sounds like something that would be playing in some post-apocalyptic elevator taking you straight to hell. The beat alternates between reversed warbles, foreboding chord rhythms, and jingling piano arpeggios. However, all these components are coming and leaving at different times, all of them sometimes alternating in pitch for effect. So while the beat uses the same sounds, it's rare that you'll encounter the same loop. In terms of lyrical content, the track is still tied to the 2020 riots with the performance of two absolutely stellar verses from Meechy Darko and Erick the Architect. Meechy's verse is filled with grisly imagery, a deranged depiction of his "riot-inciting" passion; he threatens to "kill you on cam" and "take your life for likes". "Gucci sweats while casket shopping" and "Ask why Satan cried when I was baptized" are personally some of the hardest bars of 2020 as well. It would seem that no rapper could match Meech's constantly varying flows and pitch, but Erick's verse is equally as impressive, if not better. He takes a similar approach to Meechy throughout the verse, threatening all those who dare to oppose him and braggadociously asserting the Zombies' goal to "[take] over this globe." Yet in line with much of this project, behind all the flexing and celebration of their dominance, there's deeply wounded bars that merit a second look: for instance, he's "bowling with pins of woes." It seems like the riots that define the project have forced the Zombies into a spot where they're simultaneously questioning themselves and their trials while also presenting their skill and victory as a way of demonstrating their dominance, or perhaps the strength of the black race as a whole. The contrast between tracks like "herb" or "dirty elevator music" and more cerebral cuts like "blessings" and "quicksand" only serve to accentuate this contrast.

Speaking of "blessings," it follows "dirty elevator music" as the fifth track on the EP, and couldn't be more different stylistically. Erick's hook on this one is smooth and relaxed, he adopts a quasi-speaking tone in contrast to his punctuated exclamations on the previous track. In the interview for the making of this EP, Erick explains that on "blessings," "Juice is more like the angel, and I'm more like the devil," which seemingly feels cryptic at first. But the differences are stark: Juice's verse is composed of short reflections on his personal talent and come-up; he commands listeners to "shine like my skin, the melanin," which undoubtedly conveys a sense of angelic imagery. Erick's verse is about violence, stone, and smoke, a hellish depiction of what the streets have taught him. Like in the previous track, the contrast seems to be set between two very different methods the Zombies have for dealing with their trauma. Nevertheless, the two verses are tied together by Erick's hook, pondering their blessings, one being the very fact that they are still alive. In doing so, Erick establishes the idea that his fire-and-brimstone esque trials are conversely a blessing, although it is Juice who claims his blessings came "disguised as lessons." And the central angel in the center of the EP's cover continues to assert the fact that blessings, spirituality, and death are in fact central to the theme of the record. Erick asserts on the hook that "Heaven sent me this angel," which could potentially refer to the EP cover but also a broader representation of his blessings. In contrast to Meech's dismissal of religion, Erick's angels empower him to help him believe "there's nothing [he] cannot handle."

That being said, the final track on the EP "when i'm gone" ties together all these themes masterfully. This track has the only feature on the record, with a monumental chorus from Sophie Faith. It's no surprise that the title "when i'm gone" itself refers to death, given its omnipresence throughout the EP. It seems like all three Zombies, expectedly given their name, have dealt with some form of death that they are now addressing on record. Juice proclaims that he "just wants to die," in the same breath that he references his mother's death and that "every damn day niggas dyin' in the streets." Like Meechy's bold claim "I know that drugs kill, so do cops, who cares?" on "quicksand", death from the riots and their personal death experiences seem to be indistinguishable to the Zombies. More than wallow in his death-induced sorrow, Juice advocates for hope and recognition of one's blessings: "Sometimes it's hard, but nigga, you alive." Erick's recognition of death comes in the abstract by referencing fallen soldiers and human desentization. His claim that "life ain't supposed to be this way" is one we can all relate to; never mind the fact that we are living through a pandemic that is a staunch reminder of the inevitability of death. But he is correct that we are all desensitized, desentized to the reminders of death on the news every day. Whether it is pandemic-related or protest-related, it is simply death, "the pain we can't ignore." Meechy's final verse could be the best on the record, beginning with a triumphant scream of his condolences for the late Mac Miller, a visceral summation of the death that has haunted him throughout the record. "You are not gone, you entered the void," he states, which is more than likely a reference to his father but can be construed as a reference to those who are dead at the hands of the present circumstances.

In conclusion, now, more than ever is more than an EP. It's a statement, coming at a deeply meaningful time and tackling the subject of police brutality and violence with introspection, rage, and gratitude. In doing so, the Zombies create a project that is thematically and structurally sound and certainly bodes well for future projects to come. Coming up on almost 8 months since the release of this EP, it's unfortunate that the Flatbush Zombies have not released their third studio album. Yet when it does arrive, if it is anywhere close to the quality of now, more than ever, it could be the Zombies' best album yet.

Discussion Questions

  • How do you think the themes and topics of this EP will play into Flatbush Zombies' third studio album?

  • Why do you think projects like these get so little attention despite being amongst the best of the year?

  • What is your favorite track off the project and why?

  • How does this EP compare to previous releases by the Zombies?

They were talking about late 90s/Early 2000s and how Puffy started to usher in this new era of hip hop, flashy and very funky, and how he made it really mainstream. But in one of the interviews someone said hip hop isn't supposed to be mainstream, it's supposed to be underground and raw. What are your thoughts on this?

As of today, January 22nd, 2021, the video for What You Know Bout Love was removed from YouTube following a copyright takedown request. I won't share names or any links to prevent any harassment coming from here, but it seems like the takedown came from one of the user's own recorded videos of Pop Smoke and other rappers in the studio. I doubt the dude would just strike it down directly because of Pop, so there's probably been some bull behind the scenes from the label, similar to the "1$ sample" thing from not too long ago.
