It’s not just the name of the track that makes “Curtain Call” sound like the last salvo from Little Brother‘s final album, LeftBack. Amidst shimmering synth flourishes, a boogie-indebted bassline, and a shuffling drum-machine beat, Phonte and Rapper Big Pooh declare, “this is it, the last monologue/last act in the play, you could say the epilogue,” and then list off their thank-yous as the track fades out—sounding less like an acceptance speech than the end of a memoir.

LeftBack is out April 20 on Hall of Justus.
