Compton’s Problem dropped the throwback West Coast jam “Like Whaat” back in March; minimal but laced with one-liners and ultra-compressed claps ‘n kicks, the original is perfect music to bump while cruising around in the ‘Lac. But now international badman and selector Salva – the trap lord of Friends of Friends fame – has taken the original and tweaked it into a club-friendly jam, complete with shifty, staccato drums, cleverly chopped vocals, and a bevy of reverb-laden synths. Salva keeps the minimal spirit of the original alive, but isn’t afraid to pair it with saccharine party-vibe maximalism.
