The song, โInSanity (Radio Edit),โ by Ginger Linger will hit you like a fresh lemonade with its fresh vibes and clean translucent soundscape. It comes across like a clear breeze on a sunny summer day that will get you head bopping, swaying, and tapping some cool dance moves at the same time. Listeners might get an idea of the music from Ralph Ellisonโs Invisible Man, MF DOOM, and Kendrick Lamar, that inspired our artist here.
The singerโs charismatic, youthful voice will get you vibing along because it matches the freshness of the guitars and the snappy, catchy, and light beats. But what really gets your attention is the way he sings. Itโs kind of like a merging of rap and singing, because he tacks up quite a few strong, tongue-twisting terms and words in his lines that really stick out. But the soothing rhythm that eases up on you alongside Ginger Linger syncing up with the rhythm is what gets you flowing.
Whatโs so interesting about โInSanity (Radio Edit)โ is that these words start with โI.โ For example, in one line, he goes, โIcebergโitโs icky, icy, idealistic./Identity imitates illegible intentions intimidating ideals and identicalityโฆโ And it goes on.
The songโs actually intriguing because at one point, it seems the artist is trying to express something about this world and possibly the rise of identity crisis amongst the youth, in the face of too much information, just like the structure of his song, which is quite short but is very telling, under three minutes. He refers to social media apps like โInstagram,โ which relates to the trending terms like โImmigrationโ and โisolation,โ which says a lot about the things that are affecting the world as of now. As for his state of mind, the line, โIโm impatiently unpassionate,โ is understandable, given what has been happening to young people in todayโs circumstances.
Regardless of all the ruminating over what Ginger Linger is trying to tell us, one thingโs for sureโitโs deep. โInSanity (Radio Edit)โ is light and refreshing, but also deep. His singing style, his art style, and the structure of the song are all so unlike your usual pop music.
โInSanity (Radio Edit)โ is definitely worth giving a shot.
