Skizzy Mars has become one of the most refreshing acts in Hip-Hop today, with a balance of technical ability, great beat selection, and depth to his words he is undeniable. Singer Phoebe Ryan hones in on the songs central theme in the chorus claiming that we as humans enjoy things that are often not very good for us. I can’t say I disagree.
The dreamy synth based melody and the sparse hi hats in the production along with Skizzy’s honest and introspective lyrics give the track a birds eye view feel. The listener is seeing a story basically from the perspective of a wiser self helping to reflect on ones own life and the things you need to change to become a better person. An applaudable and wise effort by Mr. Mars to take a step back and try to see the world from another angle; a little perspective could help us all.
“We know it’s bad for us,
But we Like it”
