Norfolk native Sleep's Cousin has a variety of styles, from trap and boom-bap to nu-metal rap. With a range of influences spanning from heavy metal to dubstep, and even folk, his sole producer LIEU feeds into this versatility with beats blending old school, new school, and pop elements.
Sleep's Cousin released "Look Back" on December 15, 2022, preparing for a long list of singles in 2023. Produced by LIEU, the track is comprised of old-school boom-bap elements to get across the message: life will always get better, if you keep moving forward. When asked about his inspiration for writing the track, Sleep's Cousin stated, " There’s been a lot of changes in my personal life in the past year, a lot of which was pretty tough to go through but it was all for the best. So this song was me essentially saying: even tho it’s a bit peak right now, there’s no use in looking back. You gotta push through it and whatever you're dealing with will get better."
