Stylish, syncopated, restless, witty, and slightly menacing, these punchy and pulsating new numbers by the entertainingly humorous Dutch alt-rockers comes from their new playlist of songs grouped under different colours – red, yellow, blue, each with a slightly different style and energy level, and the first two represented here. Head On The Block has an edgy terror about it, while Who’s Gonna Be The Goat? is a satirical number about fame, with a fabulously funny video featuring sports stars and other celebrities with a certain photobombing extra.
De Staat were formed in 2006 in Nijmegen in The Netherlands by frontman Torre Florim, their name translating as The State. They have released multiple singles and seven albums to date. To explore more of their work, see their website, as well as the embedded Spotify links below, with red yellow blue as well as other numbers. Out on Virgin / Benelux.
Head on the block
Neck on the line
That's how I live, baby
I'm terrified
Dance for the mob
And see the knife party
I got my head
On
Head on the block
That's how I sleep
While you'll be screaming at me
I'm counting sheep
Yeah I'd be dying up here
Go take a peek
I got my head
On the block
Boo me now (boo me now)
Or praise me later (praise me later)
Either way, man
I'm here to hate it
Afraid of everybody body thinks I made it
So stay sedatеd
Head on the block
I'll take thе risk
Go sip your drinks while I'm
I'm eating dicks
I wanna stop, stop, stop
But need the fix
I got my head
On the bloc
Head on the block (x4)
I'm gonna kiss
Apocalypse
Head on the block
Who's gonna be the GOAT? Not me
Ain't gonna train for the UFC
You're protein shakin' the money tree
On a twelve step plan to meet Jay-Z
You're busy-busy-bees, I'm free
Resisting whistling J'aime la Vie
You have a dream
I get sleep
I guess, the best of the best ain't me
Who's gonna be the GOAT?
Who's gonna be the GOAT?
Ey, all eyes on the top of the heap
While i'm hanging at Paul's Boutique
Ain't got the power, no technique
Ain't got the moves, no greek physique
But I've got a record you cannot beat
And you got the purpose I defeat
So you do you, I be me
I be me so carelessly
Who's gonna be the GOAT?
Who's gonna be the GOAT?
I ain't gonna be the GOAT
Who's gonna be the GOAT?
Vitamins at the afterparty
You wanna be the GOAT, you got it
Get your heartrate up, jog home
From the club, go keep it up
Stack by stack movin' up the ladder
'Nother car on your parking lot, ah
Oh please, I don't care
I'm a minute millionaire
Who's gonna be the GOAT?
Who's gonna be the GOAT?
I ain't gonna be the GOAT
Who's gonna be the GOAT?
I ain't gonna be the GOAT
Who's gonna be the GOAT?
