P O S – Fuck Your Stuff
P.O.S. doesn’t care about your bucks. And he doesn’t want your stuff. His is the true pursuit of happiness. And with new album We Don’t Even Live Here, he’s found it. On the anti-capitalist track ‘Fuck Your Stuff’ – over an expansive, bumping Lazerbeak beat – P.O.S. becomes the first rapper to rhyme discussing Christopher Hitchens with how to make bombs from shit found in your kitchen. And now the song has a music video to match.
Out November 05 on Rhymesayers Entertainment, ‘We Don’t Even Live Here’ is the fourth solo album from Doomtree co-founder, punk philosopher and lyrical bomb-thrower Stefon Alexander, aka P.O.S. It’s a tight, bombastic record that builds on the Minneapolis-bred rapper and producer’s penchant for grinding beats and radical lyrics. But at the same time, WDELH marks a change — in sound and in attitude.
Known for welding hip-hop with guitar squalls and screamed vocals, on WDELH P.O.S. steps away from his noisy past in favor of futuristic beats fit for a Berlin nightclub. Though his hip-hop foundation is firm on tracks like the fiery ‘Fuck Your Stuff’ and the funky ‘Wanted/Wasted,’ the album brings banging new sounds from dance-oriented collaborators like German DJs Boyz Noise & Housemeister, Gayngs’ Ryan Olson, and Innerpartysystem’s Patric Russel.
Also along for the ride are Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon (who lends his shapeshifting vocals to the heartfelt bear-hug of an anthem ‘Where We Land’) and P.O.S.’ trusted Doomtree co-conspirators Lazerbeak, Cecil Otter, Mike Mictlan, and Sims. Bringing it all into focus is all-star producer and mix engineer Andrew Dawson (P.O.S.’s former high school classmate), who has worked on platinum releases from the likes of Kanye West, Jay-Z, Beyonce, Rick Ross, Lil Wayne and Fun.
