Only Vince Staples can start a song with “woke up in another man’s main bitch” and get away with it. Maybe it just won’t be here in the America so perfectly skewered in this very musical. I have to believe that, someday, we will find a new way of living. All that makes sense and feels right to me is hearing the eternally joy-infused voice of Tituss Burgess belt out the heartbreaking ballad from West Side Story in front of the Stonewall Inn. How do you make sense of a senseless massacre like the Orlando shooting? No one has the answers. When it hits you, you feel no pain.” I’m reminded of it in times of deep, unspeakable tragedy because, in those moments, all I have is music to carry me away. There’s a timeless Bob Marley quote: “One good thing about music. Tituss Burgess, “Somewhere” ( West Side Story cover) No doubt inspired by Jamie xx, this is maybe Disclosure’s best use of someone else’s material since “When a Fire Starts to Burn.” –DL The way in which Disclosure pick apart, update, and give new life to Al Green’s “I’m Still in Love With You” on this song from the duo’s new EP captures the spirit and ethos of dance music to a T.

Yeah, that rain he’s alluding to is most definitely gunshots. It’s an aural assault, pounding in both the skittering beat and Danny’s vicious tales of life in the hellish D (“living every day like it’s the end”).
