Roy Rutto's latest single, "a while," exudes soulful vibes and heartfelt lyrics, offering a captivating journey through the depths of human emotion. The Kenyan-American Rutto is a unique talent with as much in common with Marvin Gaye as with Anderson .Paak. Roy Rutto balances influences from the 60s soul and modern hip-hop with grace. With smooth rhythms and poignant storytelling, Rutto creates an unforgettable experience on his first single, "a while".
Brilliant hip-hop for the fans of
boom bap. It also has a slightly more experimental side, but remains super cohesive altogether. The flows of the MCs are masterfully complementing excellent production. This is a great album. Thibaut Devigne
