Three minutes long, and the only line of information attached to it is a website address. No producer, no director, no label, no release date for the audio. This is as thin a submission as a release can be and still be a release. What is verifiable: Choco Valens is a Miami artist who has been covered repeatedly by one US hip-hop outlet over the past two years, and whose single "Hell On Earth" featured Gil Scott-Heron. That is a genuine line on a résumé. The same outlet, writing about "Hell On Earth," described "Never Miss" as a track on which Choco "confronts the music industry's gatekeepers" which suggests this recording has been sitting around for a while and the video is late rather than simultaneous. That cannot be confirmed, and it is worth saying so rather than smoothing it over. The track itself opens on spoken dialogue about sending money home, then moves into dense, associative verse Serena Williams, Skywalker, Chappelle, Buzz Lightyear, a marathon before closing on "I never miss stupid. Shout out to Nas." Beyond the words, nothing here can be assessed honestly: there is no audible description available, and the absence of credits means there is no way to say who built the track or where it was made.
