140.Rae Sremmurd: “No Type” (2014)

In 2014, Rae Sremmurd stepped into the spotlight with the infectious “No Flex Zone,” backed by Mike WiLL Made-It at the height of his superproducer powers. The two baby-faced brothers had a club anthem on their hands, though many were skeptical about their ability as rappers and wrote them off. But within months they topped their first hit with “No Type,” which elevated Swae Lee and Slim Jxmmi from predicted one-hit wonders into bona fide stars. At the song’s irresistible core is Swae’s gliding chorus, but “No Type” is more than just a catchy hook: It established the duo’s yin-yang balance of sparkling melody and raucous energy. –Alphonse Pierre

2014年，Rae Sremmurd憑借極洗腦的“No Flex Zone”走進(jìn)大眾視野，該歌曲由頂級(jí)制作人Mike WiLL Made-It操刀。這兩個(gè)長(zhǎng)著娃娃臉的兄弟擁有一首“夜店國(guó)歌”，但依舊有很多人質(zhì)疑他們作為說(shuō)唱歌手的能力，唱衰他們。但僅僅數(shù)月內(nèi)，他們成功打造出屬于他們的第二首熱單“No Type”，歌曲使Swae Lee和Slim Jxmmi從曇花一現(xiàn)的one-hit wonder成功晉升為貨真價(jià)實(shí)的大明星。盡管歌曲最令人難以抗拒的精華是Swae Lee絲滑流暢的副歌唱段，但“No Type”絕不僅是一首口水歌，它確立了這對(duì)組合在閃耀旋律與喧囂能量之間的陰陽(yáng)平衡。
