Vin Jay – Brain Dead [Single + Video]

“Brain Dead” by Strong Island emcee Vin Jay is a heated battle-rap-styled track that attacks the listener’s senses with unblunted rhymes over a hard, no-frills beat. Vin uses his all-gas-no-brakes flow to unleash his barbed-wire lines and visceral lyrics at an unrelenting pace that leaves listeners reeling in the aftermath. Throughout the hard-knocking sound piece, there are subtle shifts in Vin’s energy that help to build a sense of tension and momentum in the song that keeps the track from settling into a monotonous groove. The listener is left wondering what will come next as Vin Jay switches from a fierce, unforgiving assault to a somewhat more laid-back delivery and back again. Producer DEXTAH provides a stark, minimalistic backdrop for the song, centering his sound around gothic strings and heavy thumping drums that allow Jay‘s high-energy verses to stand out even more. The video for the single, directed by Anickan, completely captures the intensity of the song, with Vin wildly thrashing around in an empty all-white room like a possessed psyche-hold patient wrestling with his inner demons. When all of these elements come together, the end result is a song that delivers an intense listening experience and leaves the listener feeling like they’ve just gone through a war zone after hearing it.
