Read that artist list again, because somebody really did get T-Pain, Shaq in his DJ DIESEL costume, San Holo, NGHTMRE and three more bass producers into one room for a track literally called STFU. By all rights a seven-name posse cut should collapse into an incoherent mess of egos, and the genuinely surprising thing is how much it bangs anyway. It’s maximalist dubstep that knows exactly how stupid and fun it’s being, T-Pain’s vocal tying together a drop that hits like a collapsing scaffold. Monstercat releases tend to land somewhere between meme and mosh pit, and this is squarely in the overlap where the two stop being distinguishable. The miracle is that with that many cooks it still has a shape, a clear arc rather than a contractual pile of features. You are not going to put this on to relax. You are going to put it on to ruin a perfectly calm afternoon, which is its own kind of public service, and the neighbours will simply have to cope.
