CMH and Joost Klein build 'jackass' around a collision of Russian rap swagger and Dutch absurdist humour, the track a gleeful provocation that samples the opening of the MTV stunt show and runs with the chaos. CMH's verses move through scenes of reckless abandon, speeding, substances, the blur of nightlife, whilst Joost responds with deadpan non-sequiturs, his English-language sections pitched somewhere between genuine affection for Russian culture and deliberate silliness. The production sits heavy and distorted beneath the vocals, a platform for both artists to riff on excess and transgression without apology. What holds it together is a kind of shared anarchic energy. CMH raps in Russian, Joost in English and Dutch, the languages layering over each other without translation or apology. The song doesn't court accessibility; it courts complicity. There's a tribal, almost defiant quality to the collaboration, the two voices building something that feels genuinely uninterested in mainstream palatability. 'jackass' is a track that knows exactly what it is and leans into it completely.
"jackass" is a track by CMH, from the album MUDBLOOD, released 12th March 2022. Full lyrics are available below.
