Antwon BUTTERFLY KISSES
Summery single by Antwon and Lil Peep.
Lil Peep died in 2017, yet his impact lives on as rappers continue to be influenced by the emo rap sound he helped pioneer. Peep’s new music is also continuing to emerge. Last year, Harry Fraud released High Fashion, a collaboration EP with Peep.
Antwon has now released a single featuring the late Swedish-American rapper. Antwon captures a summery feel on “BUTTERFLY KISSES,” crooning about the warmth of a new relationship. The instrumental is made up of a variety of synths sparkling over a powerful 808 beat. As synthetic flute notes float in the background, Antwon and Lil Peep deliver an immensely catchy song. Lil Peep’s verse is amusingly disjointed, as he sings with his trademark angst about everything from popping Xans to getting poop on his sneaker (“I got caca on my shoe, baby”).
The low-key tune has a sorrowful undertone beneath the song’s lighthearted content. As Lil Peep’s all-too-brief existence demonstrates, brilliant moments like these seldom endure long enough.
