YC The Cynic lives up to his cynicism, but he also gives us clear reasons for its necessity. Highlighting the troubling and multifaceted connections between gentrification, inflated tuition and social disadvantage, YC paints a grim picture of deep urban tensions. This song didn’t make it to his album GNK, but that shows you just how high his standards are. Sure, the instrumental doesn’t quite match the intensity of YC‘s delivery or the vitriol of his lyrics, but it’s not a disposable song by any means. The way he puns on “bounce” is simply masterful. But that’s besides the point. Today it lives on. Embrace your inner cynic below.
