New Music Friday

There are only a few artists that have the ability to storytell to the point a whole song can grip you. UK artist Cadet is certainly one of them.

His regular freestyles are infamous and this song ‘Closure’ is a continuation of his previous song ‘Slut’. I dont want to ruin the storyline for you but ‘Closure’ is a personal open letter based on the events in the previous chapter. However, Cadet provides us with the shock factor and honestly, the song will have you at the edge of your seat.

Closure

I was recently at an event where they played some R&B songs that stuck with me. Due to this, I discovered an artist called Sy Ari Da Kid. I checked out some of his songs and one in particular stands out as a favourite. The song called “Closure” features Tink and unsurprisingly the song is exactly about closure in a relationship. One thing I love in particular is when Tink sings “I love you, but I don’t wanna cuff you” which I find refreshing to hear from a woman’s perspective. With artists like Bryson Tiller recently, we usually hear this from a man’s point of view.

I like that she seems to have some sort of control in this song. She sings that she’s used to his games which is why she knows she cannot be in a relationship however he still has a hold on her. This song ends as confused as they were in the beginning and I think it’s such a great representation of life. Nothing is ever in black and white and sometimes we experience that.

I will definitely be listening to more of his music.
