Watsky

Let’s go!

Oh yeah, I just remembered to remember your first name (oh yeah)
I shook your hand, I locked your eye but my mind was in Spain (come on)
My brain’s been out of order
Insert quarter, no reply
Left to my own devices
My devices cried for me

This world today
This world today
It’s not our fault
This mind decay
This mind decay
This chocolate malt

Tastes so good to me
Tastes so good
Tastes so good to me
So damn good (so so so so)

I’ve got such plans
Such plans stacked high
Bow to my stack of plans
I stand in awe
Below them and
Enjoy the avalanche
I swim upstream
I have bad dreams
If I wake up
I drown (I drown! I drown!)
I drown my sorrows with my
Pals from town

This world today
This world today
It’s not our fault
This mind decay
This mind decay
This chocolate malt

(Dang ol... dang ol, dang ol' Pat Dimitri)
(Hey! Hey! Hey! Woo!)
(Hey! x10)

Tastes so good to me
Tastes so good
Tastes so good to me
So damn good

Tastes so good to me
Tastes so good
Tastes so good to me

A successful slam poet turned rapper, Watsky first gained attention through ‘Russell Simmons’ HBO Def Poetry,’ and a later burst of viral success for his fast rapping. At every turn, Watsky has refused to be pigeonholed, following up his speed rap success with 2013 LP Cardboard Castles, an eccentric ode to creativity, and 2014’s Anderson. Paak-produced All You Can Do. After a hiatus to work on new material, Watsky pivots again, this time to prose, returning simultaneously with the essay collection How To Ruin Everything, published by Plume/Penguin-Random House, of which Hamilton creator Lin-Manuel Miranda writes, “funny, subversive […] you find yourself nodding your head in wonder and recognition.” How To Ruin Everything debuted in the New York Times best-selling list. In total, he has created five studio albums and two live albums. Watsky released his fifth album, x INFINITY August 2016, describing it as his most ambitious project yet. Most recently, in January of 2019, he released a short album called Complaint.
