Earlier this month RiTchie of By Storm (FKA Injury Reserve) shared his first solo single. The track wasn't a one-off, with news today that the rapper's debut album Triple Digits [112] will be released on April 5. In addition to the album news, RiTchie has also shared "Dizzy" featuring Aminé. Scroll down to check out the self-directed video for that song now.
"Dizzy" is a pointed and amusing takedown of those people in any music scene who seem to be more into the lifestyle than the work. "Is it as simplistic as parents all rich?" RiTchie asks at one point. Aminé backs him up, taking shots at people who "link and build at the urinal." The video, meanwhile, is shot from RiTchie's perspective, kind of like a rap version of Peep Show.
Last year Injury Reserve announced their decision to change their name to By Storm in the wake of the death of founder member Jordan “Stepa J” Groggs. They subsequently shared "Double Trio" and appeared on The FADER Interview podcast to discuss the next chapter in their story.
