My first impression of this was that I wasn't sure if I loved or hated this. I'm leaning a lot more towards liking this, it's very
different
. I actually feel like the rap sections in this are the high point. The pop sound is a bit "ehh", but it has enough of a dark, ominous sound that I end up liking this. (Also like how they rhymed "pirouettes" with "silhouette")

Last few years it seems I've seen
everyone
talking about the Yakuza series, like it's had a big resurgence in popularity (never played myself). This song (and most Yakuza music I've heard) is alright, nothing special, gets the job done as a boss fight theme. Bodhisattva Kill from VGMC several years back is still my favorite Yakuza music by a long shot.
