Houston
If you’ve been locked into our radio show for the past year you would have heard the dark tones of ‘Paris’ by Israeli lyricist Sighdakeft on regular rotation. Swing around to October and the rapper is back with new release ‘Houston’ bringing hard-nosed bars over a $wedo low-end boom-bap beat. Simmering with end-of-summer vibes, the track is fueled with old school charm but shines a hazy spotlight on the gritty set of street tales Sigh brings to the forefront through his eloquent raps. Meanwhile, New York producer $wedo stays true to his hometown, bringing forth a tight RZA-esque drum beat with heavy break neck appeal.
A follow up to his hard-hitting Trap laced EP ‘¥¥¥’, the luscious vintage jazz break is a reminder that Sighdafekt has a lot more dimensions to his talent and is a true testament to the health of Israels growing Hip Hop music scene. Yet to make it on official streaming platform, Houston is exclusively for the Soundcloud lurkers and a real treat for the fans. Support and check out more from Sighdafekt on his Soundcloud or Spotify.
