“LOW SODIUM (ft. Chance The Rapper)” offers a serene soundscape – calming to both the ear and the mind. The palette is effective at communicating the message, as the track is about letting go of unnecessary hate and being salty. The Cool Kids deliver, as expected, but Chance’s verse is the standout. He has been delivering consistently amazing quality verses and contributions post The Big Day, and it should be acknowledged and applauded.
