Lil Skies & Landon Cube Reflect On Fame's Pressure in "2Much 2Fast"
After a long three-year hiatus, Lil Skies and Landon Cube are back together on “2Much 2Fast,” a track that dives deep into the challenges of fame and the pressures of the music industry. The song, filled with reflective and moody energy, marks the duo’s first collaboration in years and offers a raw, unfiltered look at their experiences with success.
The track's central theme revolves around the idea of achieving fame too quickly. In the chorus, both artists ask themselves whether they hit the spotlight too fast, questioning the rapid pace at which their careers took off. The song strikes a chord with many listeners who’ve followed their rise to fame, knowing all too well how overwhelming it can be when the music industry turns up the heat at such a young age.
The music video plays into this idea perfectly, starting with a comedic yet pointed moment—a random guy casually stating they’ve “fallen off.” This bit of commentary sets the tone for the track, as Lil Skies and Landon Cube watch this criticism on an old-school TV in a decaying house. With no door in sight, the video creates a sense of isolation, mirroring the way fame can sometimes leave artists feeling disconnected and scrutinized.
Though “2Much 2Fast” is a diss track at its core, it’s more than just an attack on critics. It’s a commentary on the duo’s personal journeys. They reflect on relationships, the struggle to stay relevant, and their fight to succeed on their own terms in a cutthroat industry. With every verse, they assert their determination to keep pushing forward despite the doubters and challenges.
Fans have been waiting for Lil Skies and Landon Cube to return, and “2Much 2Fast” serves as a reminder that even the most successful artists can feel overwhelmed by fame. The track feels like a victory lap—a moment for the two to address their critics and reclaim control over their narrative. It’s also a nod to their resilience, showing that while fame may come with its struggles, they’re ready to keep going, no matter what.
