Looks like penning, performing and producing hit records aren’t the only skills in BOOTS‘s repertoire—the buzzmaking singer-songwriter’s also a skilled gambler. On his latest single, I Run Roulette, the man who brought us Mercy compares romance to a high-stakes game of chance. While BOOTS’s vocals are as distinctive and attention-grabbing as ever, it’s his production that steals the show on this single. Fueled by abrasive guitar riffs and a pummeling rhythm section, the instrumental backdrop is more reminiscent of a Nine Inch Nails composition than your typical R&B/pop single. Roulette is just a loosie, but those feeling it can keep it locked for more fresh tunes from the Roc Nation signee.
