Big Boi teams up with the ubiquitous Harlem rapper and pop duo Phantogram.
‘Lines’ is muscular and dramatic, a well-orchestrated trunk rattler from the erstwhile Outkast member. Indie pop duo Phantogram (who Big Boi mentioned as collaborators back in August) add a bit of breathy finesse to the track, while Rocky opens the track with one of his timbre-hopping 16-bar verses. However, Big Boi’s nimble flow almost gets lost in the spaced-out track.
