— GRAMMY® Award Winning Producer/Rapper, and SossHouse CEO, Pi’erre Bourne returns with the release of his latest project, Good Movie.
Following the announcement of a world tour and the release of the album’s lead single, Pi’erre Bourne’s freshly released Good Movie album is a 23-song set that firmly establishes him as one of the most talented multi-hyphenates in rap. The project, which boasts collaborations with Don Toliver and Young Nudy, arrives ahead of the Good Movie World Tour.
On album standout “Psane,” Bourne and Toliver conjure up a frenetic banger with bright videogame synths and layered vocals that set the stage for Bourne’s joyous verses. The track celebrates the duo’s successes and even includes a shout-out to the artist’s record label during the hook, “Somebody tell me who they think they is,” Bourne sings in his trademark half-rapped flow. “It’s SossHouse baby/ Welcome to the crib.”
“Psane” is one of many highlights on Good Movie that show how Pi’erre has evolved as a producer. Songs like “What I Gotta Do” and “Where You Going” — the latter of which has an official music video featured on Pi’erre’s YouTube channel — incorporate elements of Jersey/Philly club music into his atmospheric trap sound. On the other hand, kinetic songs like “Moving Too Fast” ft. Young Nudy and “SossHouse Party” are a natural progression for his candy-coated signature sound while simple yet emphatic words spill out of the rapper effortlessly on “Kingdom Hall” as he stacks outlandish metaphor after outlandish metaphor, intoning “Shakes-pi’erre, Romeo & Juliet/She may die for the kid.”
Good Movie also includes the title track, which finds Bourne serving free-associative flexes that evoke the lifestyle of a high-roller. “My life’s like a movie, yeah, yeah,” he raps over ambient keys. “She is so into me, yeah, yeah.” Released last week, the title track “Good Movie” received major support from XXL, Complex, Hypebeast and OurGeneration, who all included the track in their “Best Songs Of The Week” columns. With its slick melodies and to-the-point bars, “Good Movie” is quintessential Pi’erre Bourne.
