![]() I’m super stoked about the song, and shout out to Cudi as we got more stuff on the way too. I love how he can hop on every genre yet still sound like a fucking rockstar. He has been since the first moment I heard him. Kid CudiĬudi is one of my favorite artists. In a sense it did drop, as you can find it on YouTube. I loved that Yandhi project we worked on, and wish it would have dropped. It’s the greatest thing that could happen, to be one with God, but I still hope we can find a way to give that song to the fans. On this track, I talk about asking Kanye to drop the OG “New Body.” We shot the video and finished everything, but then Kanye got enlightened and was brought to Christ. I listen to J Dilla, Madlib, and MF Dooom every day, like, I could go for hours. The way we mixed the vocals and all the high pitching had those Quasimoto vibes. ![]() Shout out to Bongo ByTheWay, as he brought me this beat a year ago and I freestyled the whole verse. “That kind of lifestyle can definitely get empty ,” Ty concedes. The up-and-down sequencing of the record seems to represent the brittleness of the male ego. Songs like “Temptations” and “Real Life” hint at exhaustion behind all the failed relationships, an indication that being LA’s most celestial sex symbol since Jim Morrison isn’t all it’s hyped up to be. Yet Ty balances his skills of seduction with a sobering regret for the fast lifestyle he’s enjoyed. On project-highlight “Everywhere,” Ty pledges to make a lover “hit high notes like Mariah” with a croon which might result in thousands of lockdown babies. Given the state of the world, it's a much-needed dose of escapist fantasy. At a time where watching even five seconds of the news can result in an existential crisis, the project (which is only Ty’s third solo studio album) has a commitment to shifting the artist’s signature sticky brand of R&B into a more psychedelic direction. It’s been a slog getting to the top (he started out in a pop duo with friend Kory in the 2000s), but you sense this will be the moment that removes any remaining doubts around his ability to be the star attraction. Ty is from a school of artists that learned how to play just about every instrument in existence after finding out Prince played all 27 parts on his 1978 debut, For You. ![]()
