Dave East and Young Chris redefine “Fine Dining”
Dave East and Young Chris prepare “Fine Dining” on June 20th, with twenty-two minutes of crisp vocals and savory melodies. This gourmet album is a treat from the pair, especially after the completion of Dave East’s 24-city stint, The Dirt Tour.
The “Fine Dining” album is not the only exciting news, the song “Pablo & Gunner” from the album has released visuals for fans to enjoy.
Within the first 8 seconds of the “Pablo & Gunner” music video, the audience sees a cartoon background of a landing plane. These visuals feel nostalgic, much like the cartoons that would glue our peering eyes to the screen as children. The decision to include this scene is intricate and foreshadows the meaningful lyrics tied to this song.
This driving beat is smooth as butter, leaving listeners no choice but to nod along. Both Dave East and Young Chris’s voices slide clearly amongst the beat and do not overpower one another at all. It is easy to gauge and even easier to fall in love with.
It is clear that the dedication of “Pablo & Gunner” is bigger than the duo itself. Both rappers pay homage to Nipsey Hussle, recognizing his impact on their careers and the lives of many fans.
“Nipsey, I’m shinin’”, the song echos.
This is not the only time Dave East and Young Chris mention another celebrity. Both rappers utilize double entendres in their lyrics, shouting celebrities out along the way. One line reads, “Everything tailored, word to Teyana.” This lyric is crafted for Teyana Taylor, a popular singer, songwriter and actress.
Another line mentions the famously known company, Johnson & Johnson. This line, “Kept us some powder, Johnson & Johnson.”
