After years of recording music and touring in various musical acts, the guys decided to put aside their music projects and began working traditional 9-5 jobs. Troy became a producer/personality on SiriusXM’s “Jim Norton and Sam Roberts” show and Jared worked as A&R man at Republic Records, signing acts such as Phantoms and Prince Fox.
In 2015, Hinson and Piccone dove back into producing music and formed their current project Black Caviar. Citing musical influences such as Timbaland, The Beastie Boys and Fatboy Slim, the NY duo approached their music on a quest for the “perfect bounce.” Quickly garnering a reputation as one dance music’s most versatile producers, Black Caviar fuses elements of Detroit House and NYC Hip-Hop, with a blend of New Orleans Bounce and twist of Latin Rhythm. “We have such a wide array of influences across the music spectrum, it’s fun to mix and match all of them to make something unique,” adds Hinson.
Amassing almost 50 million Spotify streams in their illustrious career so far, Black Caviar’s rise has been nothing short of meteoric, with the duo racking up huge success with a vibrant rework of Modjo classic ‘Lady (Hear Me Tonight)’ and their thunderous remix of iconic dance legend Tiësto’s ‘BOOM. The pair earned widespread plaudits on their original production ‘Coco’ (over 12 millions Spotify streams), tackled official remix duties for viral superstar Big Shaq’s ‘Man’s Not Hot’ and ‘New York, What’s Happenin?’ with legendary Bronx rapper, Kool Keith. “We really just started making music for the love of it with zero expectations, and somehow, it started popping off,” adds Piccone.
Supported across SiriusXM’s electronic channels, including BPM and Diplo’s Revolution, the duo recently hit the road to perform at gigs ranging from private parties in Silicon Valley to clubs in Las Vegas, New York and Boston. In addition, they performed festival sets over the summer at Electric Zoo in New York and Splash House in Palm Springs. “We are having a blast right now making music, playing gigs and having as much FUN as possible. We are just starting to get going ”adds Piccone and Hinson.
Most recently, Black Caviar debuted their major collab ‘What’s up Danger’ with rapper Blackway from the Spiderman: Intro The Spider Verse movie soundtrack. This is the second single released from the soundtrack, following Post Malone’s ‘Sunflower’ featuring Swae Lee. The soundtrack is set to be released on December 14th, the same day as the nationwide theatrical release of the film.
Transitioning into the new year, Black Caviar are poised to break out in 2019, so you’ll want to stay tuned for more.
El Camino
Black Caviar Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I switch up then she pop it
That top drops when I lock it
In my El Camino
And I′m gassed up and she want it
I did it, I got it, in my El Camino
Face in the mirror and a rack up front
In my El Camino
In my El Camino
Like that, like that, like that
In my El Camino
Like that, like that, like that
In my El Camino
She pull up inside it
I switch up then she pop it
That top drops when I lock it
In my El Camino
She pull up inside it
I switch up then she pop it
That top drops when I lock it
In my El Camino
And I'm gassed up and she want it
I did it, I got it, in my El Camino
Face in the mirror and a rack up front
With a ass like that, gotta put it in the trunk
In my El Camino
In my El Camino
Like that, like that, like that
In my El Camino (Like that, like that, like that)
With a ass like that, gotta put it in the trunk
Trunk, trunk, trunk, put it in the trunk, trunk, trunk
Trunk, trunk, trunk, put it in the trunk, trunk, trunk
Trunk, trunk, trunk, put it in the trunk, trunk, trunk
Trunk, trunk, trunk, put it in the, in the trunk
Like that, like that
I did it, I got it, in my El Camino
In my El Camino
In my El Camino
Like that, like that, like that
In my El Camino
Like that, like that, like that
I did it, I got it, in my El Camino
The opening lines of the song "She pull up inside it, I switch up then she pop it" seem to suggest that the singer is with someone who has just arrived in their El Camino. Despite not revealing who the person is, it is clear from the context that they are close with the singer. The chorus of the song goes "In my El Camino, and I'm gassed up and she want it, I did it, I got it, in my El Camino", which seems to establish a connection between the car and the person riding in it. The El Camino is perhaps a symbol of success or validation for the singer, and they are proud to have achieved it.
The second verse includes the lines "Face in the mirror and a rack up front, with an ass like that, gotta put it in the trunk". This line is quite suggestive, and it is clear that the singer is with someone physically attractive, but not much more can be inferred from the lyrics in this verse. The repetition of the chorus seems to emphasize the importance of the car and what it represents to the singer.
Overall, the lyrics to "El Camino" seem to suggest that the singer is proud of their car and the success that it represents. They are also with someone riding in the car who they seem to be close with, and who is physically attractive.
