NVRTOOLATE #002 // NOT THAT NORMAL PT. 1 - Kasai
Break ups are hard and the process of getting over it is even harder. Luckily, under 13 mins, West-London born artist Kasai provides the soundtrack for someone who’s finally found peace with a break up. On her debut EP ‘NOT THAT NORMAL, PT.1,’ we go through the emotions with Kasai as she assess her past relationship, while also coming to terms with personal grace. Enriched by the eclectic string arrangements, the trap-soulish production is preen but woeful with intent. Every track title feels like a heading for a journal entry. In my opinion, “Drunk Diary, weed & Liquor” embodies The Weeknd’s Trilogy all wrapped in one track.
NVRTOOLATE #001 // Transit - AJRadio
Upcoming Brooklyn artist , AJRadico, dropped his debut project Transit back in February. With all songs produced and written by AJRadico, he precisely takes us on a futuristic adventure, with the NYC subway lines leading us to the oyster. AJRadico stays true to melodic lines and heavy 808’s to carry his message of proving his disbelievers wrong.
On “Ballhog” , he holds no punches towards the doubters. AJ is fully aware of his place in the world and the challenges he’ll have to endure during his journey.
The nonchalantness of “that’s on me” being repeated on “Centre,” proves that AJRadico understands nothing is perfect and sometimes you have to roll with the punches.
With brazen, AJRadio shows no fear in entering various genre’s and allows his vocal bending abilities to guide his creativity with no barriers.
