CLOSE YOUR EYES

This new track from The Bullitts, that features Lucy Liu and Jay Electronica is just the right mix of euphoria and melancholy that I was looking for on this Saturday afternoon. The contrast between Lucy Liu’s spoken-word narration and the stylized and swooning R&B music creates a lovingly conceptualized piece that Jay Electronica’s rap nicely tops off. The Bullitts is the project of writer, producer and musician Jeymes Samuel, “Close Your Eyes” is out on the 18th April with the album, Hey Die By Dawn And Other Short Stories set for a Summer 2011 release.
