Melodic and mellow, yet still brimming with energy that’s bound to bring your highest octane self to the forefront, Lowkey718’s bringing that addictive and infectious early 2010s hip-hop back to life with a fresh take and spin. On ‘WHAT U WANT’, the Brooklyn based hip-hop artist has found the perfect beat to spit bars over, catchy from the back to the front with the right kind of intrigue and cleverness to make it that much more addictive. His flow is the indisputable highlight on the record, quick-fire when he wants and mellow when he needs to be.
What’s clear from the get go is the penchant that Lowkey718 has for penning down addictive hip-hop bops that any a listener is bound to enjoy. ‘WHAT U WANT’s greatest problem is it feels too short, but perhaps that’s why that replay button is bound to be on repeat from the minute you hear it.
