Trouble Maker is easily one of the most unique artists coming out of Canada. We have been connected with him for quite some time now. His original style stuck out as soon as we pressed play for the first time. His project “Lofi and So High” was certainly not a disappoint for us. He is a humble/respectful artist that always shows love.
He gave us exactly what we expected with this project – uniqueness. I don’t think I have ever heard someone with a style like this. “Lofi and So High” has a total of 10 tracks and each one brings its own flavor.
The only thing I believe this project is missing is overall audio quality. I would recommend Trouble to possibly find a better studio to record at in the future just so his energy can fully be recognized.
Check out the full project below and let us know what you think?
Kilo Tae, out with his new single “Good Day” inspired after a first time trip to Santa Barbara and his experience of its party life. Coming from Northeast Baltimore his motivation for the track stemmed from seeing how different life is in Southern California and simply breaking away from all the noise and negativity in Baltimore. “Seeing those palm trees in the sky and that beautiful beach. I just had such a good time, I just couldn’t help myself but to rap about it.
The track was produced by godummikyle” also known as Kyle Junior, a producer with an extensive catalog and a large subscriber base on YouTube. “I found Kyle on YouTube, he has thousands of fire beats and I would love to someday meet him. I mean we have good music together, so of course I want to be able to meet the man behind the magic.” His first solo album is in the works and there’s talk if “Good Day” will go on it or not, currently the team is still in debate. Kilo’s main move for the future is to land a distribution deal while sticking to his plan and grinding it out.
“I hope I just take off…I’m covered like State Farm’s” that good gas had me in the booth spazzin not even goin lie to you dummy.” With bars like those we hope to hear more from Kilo Tae in the coming future. Check out “Good Day” in the links down below.
