    I saw Kaytranada way back in 2014.
    By far one of the dopest shows ever honestly.
    His album 99.9% IS WAY AHEAD OF ITS TIME.

    Discovered his work a couple months ago, a big leap out of my normal listening, I simply can not get enough. 99.9% is some of the best work I’ve ever heard. What an album, what a dude, what a fucking genius

      On almost every song/album by any artist there's a comment about how underrated they are.

      Just because hes an amazing producer doesnt mean he is underrated

    “If you feel like you’re doing your thang, don’t let nobody talk down on you. If you feel driven in your heart & you really love what you do, go for it! Deep down in your heart, you know what you want. You gotta be able to take risks in life. DO OR DIE. What else will you be? Do what you love.” - Paraphrasing Kartranada 💛

    He's the second coming of the Neptunes'. When he popped off it was incredible, now he is just as good working with the majors

    • @tyharris3263
      @tyharris3263 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      musically kaytra has been far past the neptunes for quite some time tbh

    • @rjgthuro

      Ty Harris I would disagree but he has incredible range of production this "early" in his career.

    I'll say this to those who also make music we know what we struggle with, and we know our weaknesses. Once you feel secure in your strengths then focus on the weaknesses, and let's be honest deep down you know what you should be doing. Much love.

    His music is so fun, so interesting, so well rounded. He has got that "it" factor for sure. 99.9% is my favourite album from at least the past year or two. So good cover to cover.

AND then, ending the project with "Holy Hole Inna Donut" FUCK! That track gives me goosebumps just thinking about it. I'm glad there's a growing base for Kaytra, Man's a musical force.
