LIFEOFTHOM has shared a new single, "READY OR NOT", featuring Blvck Svm. LIFEOFTHOM is a New York City-based songwriter, producer, and performer born and raised in Washington Heights. Making a name for himself by pairing a meticulously thoughtful lyricism with expressive cadences and flows, LIFEOFTHOM is a reinvention of the classic New York sound. Blending together sharp rhyme schemes with genre-bending sonics, LIFEOFTHOM is the amalgamation of his influences- from old school backpack rap to R&B, hyper pop, post-punk, and more. For his latest single, LIFEOFTHOM connects with Chicago standout Blvck Svm for a thought-provoking, immersive new track that is refreshing in sound.
"READY OR NOT" finds LIFEOFTHOM reconnect with long-time producer Gutty for a track that blends atmosphere with precision. Gutty’s instrumentation is calm yet ruminative, featuring dream-like, graceful keys and crisp percussion, which sets a moody foundation for THOM’s focused verses to move fluidly between self-awareness and confidence. Black Svm’s guest appearance further enhances the track's immersive feel, as his subdued yet assertive, potent delivery adds further character and texture.
A hazy, pensive new track from New York's LIFEOFTHOM and Chicago's Blvck Svm, "READY OR NOT" continues THOM's prolific run of versatile, thoughtful offerings.
