FNCY makes nostalgia seem so natural. The trio of Zen-La-Rock, G-Rina and Chinza Dopeness has largely turned throwback hip-pop ideas into tag-team successes, as recently as this past January. Latest single “DRVN'” still nods to the past, but strips the sound back in favor of a cool West Coast breezer of a beat (produced by G. Rina) allowing space for all three to show off their rapping and singing. The other boost FNCY allows them is how each can dip in and out of different deliveries, something their solo output hasn’t always reflected. But here they get to shine as individuals while playing off of one another just right. Works at any time. Listen above.
