The Clipse have released their second single from their album When the Casket Drops, which is due out this September. Their first single was Kinda Like a Big Deal with Kanye, which was the best thing I’ve heard from them since Hell Hath No Fury. Their new single, “I’m Good” features Pharrell and takes the Clipse back to a few years ago with some Neptunes production. It’s a pretty sweet track on first listen, it’s reminiscent of Lord Willin and KAWS signed up for the artwork once again. That means it’s totally awesome.
