The latest release from BJ the Chicago Kid is an experimental, slow-tempo rework of the Yeezus track “Can’t Hold My Liquor.” The audio features a melodic solo from BJ as well as an impressive guitar spot reminiscent of John Mayer’s “Pyramid” contribution. While a debut album is still pending for the Chicago native, it is clear from the impressive vocals and quality visuals that this artist is ready for further exposure. Check out the track below and see if it stacks up to Kanye’s original.
