about
PawPaw Rod makes his debut as part of Godmode's Hot Sauce series, which highlights the outer limits of pop, rap, and crossover music. The record was produced by the enigmatic and newly un-retired Smash Brothers, a Philadelphia-from production team with roots in the Sigma Sound/Philly Soul studio culture of the late 70s and early 80s.
lyrics
Sunshine, bathe me, lately life’s been crazy
Your Eyes, tell all, we outside with it, your call
Move me, Need Me, care about it, breath deep
You see, what I miss, holdin on to ya with a tight grip
Light Lit, no cap, heart spilled all over the Floor mat
Tongue out, I don’t know how to hold that
Nowadays I don’t really want to hold back
So I hit em where it hurts, (Set sail, lighthouse, Search)
So I hit em where it hurts, (Set sail, Lighthouse, Search)
I been down with you, you been down with me, we know this ain’t all Talk
I’m on a Quest-love, Learn my roots/ Think that Black Thought, this my truth/ This that tipping point, this that proof/ Go head spark it up, we off mute/ loud and clear now, that sound good?/ Life in motion, like it should/ Came a long way, play that long game, yesterday gone, we’re on our way, aye/

Like so many others, this came like a bolt out of the blue and, even though it's well before payday, I had to have this astonishing album on vinyl to prove it exists. The feel of the tunes makes me feel like the Impressions do, Curtis Mayfield, the big spaces and instinctive horns and stuff drifting in and out. Great grooves and I can see lots of ghosts nodding along to this with big smiles on their faces. At last! Anthony Cottrell
