The flip stays true to salute’s high-energy rhythms while keeping the essence of KAYTRA’s bounce and H.E.R.’s soul. Right off the bat, salute intoxicates us with a fleet-footed garage beat and spellbinding vocal chops that lead into H.E.R.’s singing. While salute keeps the claps throughout the track, he subs KAYTRA’s organic keys for club-ready synths that prod you to get out of your seat and groove.

As with most of his edits, salute knows just how to keep the spirit of the track and inject his own sound at the same time. His vibrantly free-spirited production style never takes itself too seriously, and invigorates you to look on the brighter side of life.

salute adds that this ‘Intimidated’ edit is “a part of an edit pack, Wahala Edits Vol. 2, that I’ll be releasing soon!” Keep your eye out for more information, but for now, enjoy salute’s ‘Intimidated’ edit below or download it for free on Bandcamp.

The title track has to be my favorite of the project, and it was absolutely the most hyped-up song as soon as the record dropped. H.E.R.’s nicely nectarous voice makes you instantly fall in love, and it’s even more intoxicating when matched with KAYTRA’s bubbly beats. Thundercat then joins in for the bouncy ‘Be Careful,’ flaunting his distinguishing falsetto in this sultry serenade. The EP ends with Mach-Hommy’s ‘$payforhaiti,’ which is a follow-up to the rapper’s similarly-themed Pray For Haiti album that was released 6 months ago. Mach-Hommy switches off rapping in English and Kreyòl, paying homage to both his and KAYTRANADA’s Haitian roots.

You can always expect greatness from KAYTRANADA, but Intimidated proves that you don’t need to release 20+ tracks (looking at you Kanye and Drake) to make waves in the scene. While the EP rests at 9 minutes and 14 seconds long, it’s so addicting, there’s no doubt you’ll be keeping it on repeat.

‘NIKE SHOE BOX’ delivers old-school hip-hop vibes. In this track, KAYTRANADA goes simple and clean with his sound design, complementing Lou Phelps’ velvety verses. While there’s no information on whether or not the Canadian lyricist sold drugs himself, he could be paying tribute to one of the famous pusher-turned-rapper, Jay-Z. Phelps spits, ‘I said Nike shoe box with the money filled, / I’m ready to box n***** like my name Holyfield / I said Nike Shoe with the money ooh / Another day, another dolla, as usual.’ This isn’t the only time Phelps references one of Hova’s bars, calling out ‘Watch The Throne,’ in the second verse and dropping “We don’t believe you, you need more people,” early on.

Listen to Lou Phelps and KAYTRANADA work together in ‘NIKE SHOE BOX’ below, or stream it at your preferred music provider.

BUBBA shows us that KAYTRANADA is here to stay. From start to finish the quality in production is nothing short of masterful. Throughout the project, different vibes and energies are brought to the table with a fully-loaded features roster that includes names like Mick Jenkins, Masego, Kali Uchis, and many more. ‘Gray Area’ is a lovely hip-hop track centered around the pleasing voice of Mick Jenkins filled with KAYTRANADA’s distinct production. On ‘Midsection’ with Pharrell Williams, KAYTRANADA shows off an island influenced beat injected with energy by Pharrell. This is without a doubt an album you want to sit down and ingest front to back. Check out the whole LP down below!
