Shawn Chrystopher Is 'Not Really Here' But Sam Sparro Is

Those of you who peeped my Top 10 Picks of 2008 know that I stan a bit hard for some Sam Sparro. While I will give love to whoever produced this track for the synth-laden groove (the high-hat was a nice touch by the way), Shawn Chrystopher's rhymes were a bit lacking. That may be the point of "Not Really Here" though. Taking its title from the refrain of "Black & Gold," the original track on its own is pretty hard-hitting and succinct, while its spawn has a slower tempo that lends itself to feeling a bit more spacious and atmospheric. Make up your own mind below.
