FYM JAM OF THE DAY: MACKLEMORE FEATURING FENCES, OTHERSIDE (A RYAN LEWIS REMIX)


Seattle's voice in hip-hop, Macklemore brings up an uncomfortable reality in his latest version of 'OtherSide.' He throws caution to hip-hop royalty (influences and otherwise), blaming it on the Drank (prescription cough syrup, mixed with soda, and jolly rancher pieces)

This particular version, remixed by Ryan Lewis, eliminates the original Red Hot Chili Peppers sample, and relies heavily on the  hopeful, rainy-day grey vocals of Fences (Seattle Indie SuperHero).



Lewis links two sonic worlds together, providing a moody remix that pairs well with the weight of subject and flow. This makes it forYoungModerns Jam of the Day. (perfect for the grey days of October in Seattle Washington)
