Words by Javier Nino


Just as summer comes to a close, Air Credits releases an ode to blowing diesel out the window.  The track opens up with a calm piano sample and quickly sets a hazy tone. Add some drums and the rest of the backdrop by The Hood Internet and ShowYouSuck on the mic, and you've got all the right ingredients for this heavy new single.  

...I got the joint so heavy before you pass it on
will you ask em do you even lift bro
ok blow out the window…
— ShowYouSuck

The Hood Internet slays the instrumental and ShowYouSuck continues to embrace his still kind of recent appreciation for weed. "So Heavy" is a track that easily keeps your spirits and your mind lifted. The song ends with “I was smoking heavy weed up in a limousine” a very Hood Internet mashup of a pair of B.I.G.'s "Juicy" bars.

Currently, Air Credits is touring the US and will be back in Chicago this November. After seeing their first performance at the Double Door, You DO NOT want to miss that show when it comes to your town. The tour dates are in their Soundcloud, so just click the link above.
