Set to be released on Friday, What Kinda Music is a joint effort with Yussef Dayes and it has more of a jazz orientation to Misch’s previous efforts. The most recent single, Nightrider,  features Freddie Gibbs (American rapper just coming off two very well received albums with production legend Madlib) and has a very mellow, laidback feel which no doubt will be a lot of people’s soundtrack of the summer. You can listen to the track below:

This jazz oriented style is a departure from his first album, which had a hip hop feel to it. Although this may not be something his fans are accustomed to, it is one they’ve welcomed with open arms.

Misch is seen as somewhat of a rising star in the music industry, first gaining notoriety by releasing music through the streaming service Soundcloud. 

His upcoming album will be his first since 2018’s Geography which featured rap legends De La Soul. Along with this he is also known for his collaborations with Loyle Carner. Given the two year wait for new material, his fans will be waiting with bated breath to see if it lives up to their expectations.

With positive announcements becoming evermore few and far between, Misch showing off his new album will bring excitement to his fans. The two years have seemed even longer, especially since we’ve been locked down, but if the singles are anything to go off I’m more than sure it’ll be worth the wait.
