Fat Joe, “Lean Back (Julius Jetson & Ronzel Remix)”

People have been joking all summer asking what year it is. It’s remarkably surreal to see how brands and pop culture from our childhood have become repurposed in recent months. On the cusp of that tidal wave of renewed interest is G-house. Thankfully for us, we have producers like D.C.’s Julius Jetson to put us at ease and know our childhood memories are in good hands.

His most recent flip, Fat Joe’s rap classic “Lean Back,” flaunts the familiar playfulness Jetson likes to sprinkle into his work including his token use of snares, hi-hats, and moody atmospheres. On the remix, though, is a new collaborator, Ronzel, whose voice works phenomenally well with Jetson’s allowing his indie dance tendencies to become more transparent than usual. Together, the pairing have switched the formula and found a common ground in deep house that’s light, airy, and poppy without sacrificing the G-house attitude which will make all the millenials go hard.
