about
Juan Wauters on "Presentation": "'Presentation' was made one night when Nick, Benamin and I met at Nick's studio in Brooklyn. Nick and I had only met a few times before and Benamin and I met that night. We all hit it off really well and made this song that was built by all of us pitching ideas.
The lyrics are a mash up from a bunch of notes I had scattered on my cell phone. There are many references to other songs, some obvious some not so much. I'd rather not disclose that since that's the fun for you, the listener.
In many ways, unintentionally, the song came out to be a big shoutout to NY and things that have come out there. New York has been one of the main powers pushing behind my creation and this is me saluting it again."
lyrics
Made it through another year
There’s nothing that I fear
I’m just cooling off
Watching you all bugging
running a rat race
I’m setting up my pace
I just left
Got caught up in a fight
I’m standing in karate pose
I’m about to feed you a dose
of something
that I learned during my lockdown
bro down, go down
Nothing new but more due
bills to pay. Let me say,
got caught up in the system,
got fed up and I dissed them
now they're on their knees
I’m about to say peace
There must be lights shining brighter somewhere.
(There must be lights shining brighter somewhere out there)
It’s me again, I’m back
It’s that JPW coming out of your stereo
and if you wanna know my thoughts and my opinions
I got about a million
What is it? What’s good?
What is that type of mood?
We're bringing up the vibe, we roll up like a tribe
I’m a real dude, you know what I'm about to do?
I’m bringing out to the truth to the young youth that is wilding
(To the young youth that is wilding somewhere out there)
(And it’s cool to look bummy and be a dumb dummy and disrespect your mommy)
Nah, man
Who’s up in here?
We got the Benamin
We got the Hakim
We got the Nico
and we got the Julia
Another JPW presentation
Crumbs
It’s Latins going platinum

It has depth and range. I had only heard the title track on a radio show and was surprised by the rest of the record. I thought it was going to be kind of rockabilly but they are doing their own thing and its sophisticated and beautiful. _eyeam_good11
