According to a statement made by Clay on his Youtube Channel, he’s always “loved working with juxtapositions” in his music. He says that Thin Ice on the Cake relates to “being on the edge of something really bad as we grow nearer to death; birthdays are also about celebrating the positives and joys of life.”
Clay says that is a great symbol of the word ‘cake’.
My Review OF “BURING UP SLOW” BY CAUTIOUS CLAY:
As someone who has been listening to Cautious Clay for at least 4 years, I must say, his music never disappoints. Most of his songs will either get you in your feelings or have you bopping your head to his high-energy beats.
Everything from the groovy beat and instrumental to the oddly satisfying music video makes “Burning Up Slow” an exciting tune to listen to. “Burning Up Slow” is definitely been a song that I’ve been walking to my college classes listening to.
With Clay’s previous success, I would definitely recommend checking his music out. My favorite songs by Cautious Clay would have to be Cold War (2018) & Crowned (2018).
