C-cret - P.A.B

New single released by Swedish rapper C-cret

An old pic taken by me back in 2010.

 


After a quite successful viral marketing campaign during the last two weeks, Swedish rapper C-cret (Johan Georgos Aslan) has finally revealed what the cryptic abbreviation P.A.B stands for. It's the name of his latest single, Punk Ass Bitch, a tight, catchy tune which is leaning a bit towards Timbaland in production, though it also faintly reminds me of the song Manipulate (Mastermind Mix), by the Boston synthpop band Freezepop (from the album Fancy Ultra Fresh, released in 2004 on The Archenemy Record Company), but that might just be the vocoded female vocals and the ping-pong delayed synth messing with my head. The composition and production on Punk Ass Bitch is top notch if you're going for a radio hit. The beat feels slower than some of his previous singles Closer (around 125 BPM) and Gotta B Tha Best (around 95 BPM), it's tempo feels more similar to the minimalism in Mami (around 98 BPM). Pretty straight, without a lot of shuffled rythmics going on. Worth to mention is that his previous singles are produced by Swedish DJ and producer Kemal Kem Yilmaz AKA Kem.163 (check this out if you're into the Moombah/Deephouse-sound) while this new single is signed Ivar Lisinski. The rap is as usual very tight, and the repetition of the title will probably make it stick in many heads this summer. It would not surprise me the slightest if a heavy club mix of this shows up on Dödselectro in the near future.
As a final conclusion, this single will most definitely make a few dancefloors and festival camps bounce later this year.

I wish you the best of luck Johan, and I'm thinking the same thing as everyone else, when is the album getting released?
