Act Like You Know

It sounds like the party has burst out of the basements and clubs and onto the streets - bold, loud, smelling of smoke and expensive handbags. Every line is either a threat or a joke, seasoned with a pinch of cynicism and a couple of extra moves that are better not to try out in practice. The music is held together by a strong beat, and the lyrics are a mixture of bragging, street rules, and a frank desire for luxury.

There is a certain charm to this: everything seems too loud, too much, too deliberate... but that is precisely what hides the feeling of absolute freedom. It is as if the world here is divided only between those who are “in the know” and those who are better off pretending to understand.
