Kassa Overall: Tiny Desk Concert Hotney 3 Streams • 3 years ago

Suraya Mohamed | April 5, 2023
Kassa Overall is no stranger to NPR. Back in 2020 he was a featured vocalist and percussionist on the Terri Lyne Carrington + Social Science Tiny Desk concert and in the same year he scored the original music for the first season of NPR Music's Louder Than A Riot podcast. (His catchy theme song has been remixed by producer Suzi Analogue for the show's second season.) Now, Kassa's back again, leading his own band and doing what he always does — pushing musical boundaries and finding new ways to express himself through a unique blend of experimental hip-hop-infused jazz.

This Tiny Desk starts with two cuts from ANIMALS, Kassa's May release that will be featured on his upcoming summer tour. On "Ready To Ball," pianist Ian Finkelstein opens with a chord progression that signals bebop but quickly moves into a more dynamic, experimental sound with hypnotic meter changes and surprising interludes.

"Make My Way Back Home" is a beautiful song featuring Nick Hakim's sultry vocals overtop a captivating rhythmic foundation with an avant-garde yet familiar feel. I especially love the catchy melodic line, one you can sing along to even if only hearing this tune for the first time.

Then, Kassa's outstanding drum solo on "Find Me" moves into a driving percussive groove that breaks for a short rap interlude and thoughtful melodic moments featuring soprano saxophonist Tomoki Sanders and vocalist J. Hoard. "Who's on the Playlist" is an oldie but goodie from Kassa's 2019 record, Go Get Ice Cream and Listen to Jazz, which finishes the set with a continued virtuosic display of musicianship, lyricism and artistic innovation.

Lyrics:

Sheee
Yeah
I been too passionate
Passionate, passionate, passionate
Remember days we wasn’t having shit
Having shit, having shit, having shit
And now we gang sliding and we got some bags in this bitch
Bags in this bitch, bags in this bitch, bags in this bitch
Two door, two door, two door
You know I got a bad lil bitch
Bad lil bitch
 
I put on for the city I put on for the map
Tell them niggas tap in we on the phone it’s a wrap
If we ain’t gone get it bussing we ain’t flash on nothing
If you’re tryna stand on it gotta put that on something
I been to passionate but when I ride the ‘rari I ain’t never gone fasten shit
And when my bitch inside it she don’t like when I go fast and shit
Motor in the hood sound just like a dragon bitch
And I put that on my momma
I ain’t gone raise a bastard son 
he ain’t gone have to pick up sticks he ain’t gone have the drum 
He’ll know his daddy had a mothafucking platinum run
I like my Fanta and syrup too concentrated
I’m holding down my family told ‘em promise I made it
My lil bro took my chain he said this shit look amazing
My grandma told me it look like I won in Vegas 
 
I been too passionate
Passionate, passionate, passionate
Remember days we wasn’t having shit
Having shit, having shit, having shit
And now we gang sliding and we got some bags in this bitch
Bags in this bitch, bags in this bitch, bags in this bitch
Two door, two door, two door
You know I got a bad lil bitch
Bad lil bitch
 
Yeah
And I done put my heart and soul in it
Got it out the mud I promise it’s a cold feeling sheee
This ain’t overnight I woke up with no ceiling
I made a vision come to life I’m Cole Bennett
720S I’m suicidal door living
But I still gotta do some soul healing
Lonely at the top everybody can’t go with him
We can’t even chop it you stopping the momentum
And I been too passionate
I ain’t looking over shoulders bae the bag legit
Lemme show you how to get it go from rag to rich
Presidential tint I can’t be average yeah it’s Blxst and Ricch
And we done came a long long way lil baby
I could never knock my losses it made me
Said I’m the truth baby but I thought you knew baby
The one not the two baby
 
I been too passionate
Passionate, passionate, passionate
Remember days we wasn’t having shit
Having shit, having shit, having shit
And now we gang sliding and we got some bags in this bitch
Bags in this bitch, bags in this bitch, bags in this bitch
Two door, two door, two door
You know I got a bad lil bitch
Bad lil bitch
