Again in April, Uproxx despatched Jeremy Hecht to the Dreamville Pageant in North Carolina, the place he gave the Sound Verify components a street check, difficult stars like Ludacris and Juvenile to a musical style inspection.
One of many acts he caught up with was Earthgang, the Atlanta duo consisting of Olu and WowGr8, often known as Johnny Venus and Doctur Dot. They put their heads collectively to give you a joint desert island track, and Jeremy did his greatest to decipher their shared style by means of selections between Child Cudi and Future, Outkast and The Roots, and Harry Types and T-Ache.
Right here’s the way it works: Jeremy performs two songs for the visitor artist, who has to decide on one and clarify their alternative, giving Jeremy an opportunity to be taught their musical style. Jeremy then has to guess the artist’s life anthem, the track they’d take to a desert island, which the visitor wrote down earlier on a chunk of paper. Our manufacturing crew has additionally given him a decoy track, and Jeremy has to guess which is right based mostly on what he’s discovered within the earlier rounds.
Watch Earthgang tackle the Sound Verify problem above. New episodes of Sound Verify drop each Wednesday at midday ET / 9 PM PT on Uproxx’s YouTube.
