Every so often, an artist needs to snap over a hard-hitting instrumental, if only to remind the masses that they still have it. For Logic, that occasion arose on “See You Space Cowboy,” a highlight from his experimental new album Bobby Tarantino III.
Marking his first big drop since his retirement, well, last year, Logic generally opted for a more laid-back and melodic approach — at least on the majority of the non-“Vaccine” singles. As such, there’s something immediately refreshing about “Space Cowboy,” and Logic wastes little time in putting on a flow clinic. Opting for a rapid-fire approach, Logic reflects on snapshots of his past as re-examined through the lens of financial and familial success. And that’s only in the first half — for the second, Bobby switches gears over a smooth instrumental, closing things out with a message to his loyal fans.

QUOTABLE LYRICS
Watch me throwin’ a fit and get lit like I’m Evel Knievil
Just me and my people, we call this the sequel to Under Pressure
Ain’t no need to measure who the best
Fuck around and know who the best
