Armed with a mellow flow and knack for storytelling bars, British emcee Ricko takes the listener through a lyrical and visual portrayal of how he spends his downtime, while Detroit rap vet Guilty Simpson offers up a slick verse about staying motivated.
Produced by Dave Mars, “Work Ethic” takes smooth, jazz-sampling instrumentation and pairs it with the duo’s flawless flows. Stemming from Ricko’s forthcoming debut LP, The Slick Rick LP, “Work Ethic” ironically is as laid back as it gets.
The Slick Rick LP is out September 29 via CRMG Records.
