Numera! – Varför Gör Du Det Med Honom

Speedy Swedish rap. Let’s do this.

Tim: Speedy Swedish rap. Let’s do this.

Tim: My brain has trouble processing this as rapping.

Tom: It’s doing the same thing that Example did in his earlier tracks – the cadence and meter suggest rapping, but it’s fully voiced and definitely has a pitch.

Tim: That’s partly it, yes, but it’s also because I’ve haven’t a clue what they’re on about (aside from the title meaning “Why Do You Do It With Him”) – my basic Swedish is nowhere near the level required to translate this.

Tom: Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t your basic Swedish about the level required to ask for a beer?

Tim: Not just that – I can ask for a vodka and coke as well. But regardless of my linguistic capabilities, it’s so quick that I had to listen to it a few times before I could even discern where the verses stop and where the chorus begins, and part of me feels I’m not quite capable of reviewing this to the extent that it deserves. I do like it, though, somewhat for the musical bits that are present, but mostly because I know I could dance very enthusiastically to it if it came on in a club.

Tom: In the end, for music like this, that’s what counts.

Tim: SORTED.
