'The Bounce' by Lennox Campbell AKA Biggz Manifest‘The Bounce’ is a lively single providing listeners with a smooth, yet energetic feeling.

According to the band, “Chemical Sleep is a look at the effects of addiction, through the eyes of a friend. While the song itself never refers to any particular vices, it can be applied to any and all ways in which we harm ourselves or seek escape. The song explores the attitude and personality changes we have seen in people close to us, from the excuses and lies we make to hide our habits, to the way we push others away when they try to help us.”
