 A standout cut from this Toronto upstart’s 2018 debut is the phenomenal “Christian Lou”. For three minutes, we are warped into the slow-thumping wash of Prince Legend’s fourth “Black Waterfalls” cut, where autotune and free-flowing rhymes drizzle cleanly around you. Even the melody is particularly aquatic. Sluggish, watery synths run calmly behind the artist, sparkled by light, yet coinciding bells. What enhances “Christian Lou”’s specialty is how easily the Canadian emcee blends into the current. He never forces himself against the tide; instead maneuvering his delivery and flow in perfect synergy with the music around him, offering a lax, atmospheric sound. For those warm, summery nights, cruising through your local, metropolitan area, “Christian Lou” is unrivaled. It is a banger capable of being effortlessly enjoyed.

One thing that will always go absolutely respected over here is versatility. The ability, as an artist, to prove that your talent extends beyond just one form of artistry; and how variously you can connect with the audience of the world. After dropping his modern-trap dedication to his younger brother, “25”, Brandon Mitchell is spinning back around with “Dope”; and its sonic difference from the aforementioned banger proves exactly that: he has much more to offer the globe. Featuring Rockomal and Sasha Mari, “Dope” is a more intensely, melody-powered track; bolting a luscious, slow-jam groove that totally rivals the last. It exhibits Brandon Mitchell in a completely different atmosphere; spitting over a colorful chord progression, ghostly background vocals, and bouncing trap drums. The music video that chaperones this drop is just as vibrant; depicting the Kansas emcee, as well as who appears to be Rockomal, rocking to the feel-good smash in the middle of a desert. If not a metaphor for this summery single, it certainly could be. The song is as hot as the earth they are walking on. Between Brandon Mitchell’s rhymes, Rockomal’s and Sasha Mari’s unique, sing-song offerings, and the torrid production that backs them, “Dope” is definitely poised to rule our May, June, and July. And this lyricist, with his immaculate versatility, poised to climb the charts.
