RIP SOPHIE (did we really not have a thread?)

RIP SOPHIE. She’d only just gotten started, and already made such an impact. Unbelievably sad. What a talented and inspiring human being.

I discovered only after she died, sadly. I listened to her album the other day and it's really something else. Even more so how I read that she did all of the sounds from scratch, sculptured her own beats using synthesis. A touch of a genius in there.

Listen to her production for other artists too. Like “Yeah Right” by Vince Staples. Really quite an insane beat and melody for a mainstream rap single, and it has this absolutely heart-wrenching interlude, with vocals form KUČKA, that kinda makes the track.
