Apparently the fact this song was written for Rihanna is a talking point, which might have made sense five years ago, but the fact that Sia wrote a song, a very successful song, for Rihanna that sounded like Zola Jesus, the train of thought feels redundant. Go has some great elements, the trappy instrumental hook doesn’t really work as a hook, and isn’t exactly ahead of the curve, but it still hits the spot. It’s a world away from the previous Blood Diamonds x Grimes collab, the tropical bubblegum bliss of Phone Sex (still the strongest track in the Grimes setlist). A satisfying stopgap ahead of the follow up to Visions, but it might feel like a cop-out if Go finds its way onto the album tracklist.
