Interstellar word-smith Spaceman comes with “Geometry” on new single. Guest featuring Kyle Rapps, and produced by The Suspect (Allegedly), Spaceman said the single “is about pattern recognition. Or maybe the pitfalls of pattern recognition. Regardless, certain patterns in life, once you see them you can’t unsee them, and there’s a weight to that. A presence.” Indeed the track probes the tension between perception and reality, how recognition can clarify, or distort.
Speaking on his link-up with Kyle Rapps, Spaceman relayed “I’ve been knowing Kyle Rapps for a long time, he’s another guy I knew through Inner City Kids (my first group). We did a song forever ago and haven’t really done anything since but in general the thing about Kyle Rapps is he just has this preternatural sense of word economy; he’ll convey an idea in such deceptively simple phrasing that you might even miss the depth at first. He has such an intuitive approach to language I knew he could convey the texture I was looking for.”

Available via all streaming platforms, “Geometry” is the third single in Spaceman’s “Social Skills” series to drop this year. After releasing three entirely solo projects, he devised doing this series as a step out of his comfort zone and collaborate with other rappers that he respects. The previous two singles included “Mumblecore” featuring his former Inner City Kids Collective cohorts ABGOHARD and Producer K3Mal as well as “Think Twice” featuring Fatboi Sharif and produced by The Suspect (Allegedly).
