After delivering a few singles and the EN LO QUE EP earlier this year, young artist NaboriNyah continues to show his ability to balance mainstream and experimental sounds to create a unique blend of his own in his latest project, KALUNGA. KALUNGA starts with “INTRO”, a very soulful abstract rap track that shows off the artist’s Griselda and Mac Miller influences. Afterwards, “TALES FROM KALUNGA” is another display of NaboriNyah’s lyrical skills as he touches on a variety of subjects while rapping over some underground hip hop production. Then “SON LAS HORAS” is a mix of trap elements with abstract hip hop, Caribbean and soul influences that continues to show the young artist’s openness to explore more experimental sounds. Next “METIENDOLE UN RATO” continues to show the artist’s lyrical skills, but this time over a trap/drill mix. Later, “MARGINAU’” is an interesting production that will have listeners creating mosh pits to the abrasive bass while NaboriNyah practices different flows. The second half starts with “THATSCRAXY!”, a psychedelic blend of lo-fi hip hop and phonk that’ll have listeners through some weird atmospheres. Subsequently, “GUERRA ESPIRITUAL” once again finds NaboriNyah over some soulful/abstract hip hop production, but this time around balancing his rapping and singing skills. The following track, “SUELTAME” finds the artist exploring more electronic-based sounds that allow the artist again show off his balance of rapping and singing abilities. Finally, “OUTRO” is finishes the project delivering a track with similar production to the intro, some soulful abstract hip hop that displays the artist’s Griselda and Mac Miller influences with some introspective lyrics.
In closing, NaboriNyah’s KALUNGA is a project that displays the artist’s ability to balance mainstream and experimental sounds while adapting to them seamlessly, thereby demonstrating his versatility as a musician.
