DJ Rashad - "I Don't Give a Fuck"
Videos1 CommentDJ Rashad dropped this video and track a few months ago, but it has been criminally underexposed. DJ Rashad cuts up a sample exclaiming that "I don't give a fuck," and then proves he doesn't by creating the main melody of the song from what sounds like an old flip phone's numberpad. Look out for I Don't Give A Fuck--is it a single or EP--to be released on Hyperdub on July 22. Enjoy!
