On March 22nd Trackademicks blesses us with his latest offering off of his debut album, State Of The Arts. “Check” features HNRL cohort Josie Stingray for what serves as the quintessential pre-game attitude adjustment/enhancement for a night out. As Track states in his liner note for the song, “‘Check’ is about being Fresh with what you got”.

Cocktail and Sartorial references included, the two playfully trade perspectives on this theme, with Track’s trademark breezy synth-laced soundscape as a the backdrop.

State Of The Arts is available at all digital retailers.
