The brazen West Londoner just dropped his latest video taken from the ‘Liability Jones‘ mixtape for ‘Crezzeh, Baby!’
Bringing that raw, authentic hip-hop vibe on the visuals, this track has that wavey feel from the beat, which sees him vocal EARTHGANG’s track Meditate ft. J.I.D.
Always the entertainer, KAO drops lyrics that reflect his playful character while also making the most out of the situations we could all find ourselves in.
Check out the Amo Jones-directed video for the track that’s – in KAO‘s words – “An anthem for the unwell… A trip with the wicked”.
Previously featured tracks, ‘Just A Kiss’ and ‘Always Been This Way’ have set a curious tone for KIT RICE‘s brand new album entitled ‘Konfidence’, released on Monday (25th June).
I was very privileged to be invited to Kit’s album release launch party on Monday at London’s 229 The Venue Club and I gotta say this newcomer’s – along with the backing singers – well-poised vocals has compelled me even more to the eight-track collection.
‘Konfidence’ certainly matched the full-on confidence of the live performances I witnessed, by kicking off with a boisterous sound of the UKG scene, before offering up more club filling makeovers of the original R&B/soulful offerings, ‘Always Been This Way’ and ‘Just A Kiss’, with the help of producers Operator S and DJIMON.
The combination of that UKG vibes and smooth R&B offers the perfect balance throughout the album, topped off by the 2017 Voice contestant’s soulful vocal which effortlessly flows between the two genres.
With this pretty neat set, KIT RICE firmly holds onto the title as one of the most exciting and promising artists that the UK has seen in a very long time…
