Creatively theatrical yet minimalist for intriguing impact, Wykil blends spacious and haunting sound-design, with rhythmically unique bars and an unsettling hook, for the aptly-titled Murder and Sex.
Featuring an increasingly unorthodox and interesting mix, Murder and Sex blends production that appeals for its cinematic fusion of genres, with a freestyle-esque, mildly raw vocal recording; which furthers the expressive and dark nature of the music.
The hook is simple, spacious and striking, while the verses inject a notable degree of versatility in everything from detail to flow.
Focused on the overall presentation and mood rather than a single lyric or keeping the attention on the voice, Murder and Sex helps bring hip hop back to its purposeful roots, with a passionate delivery and no filler whatsoever.
It’s a fresh arrangement, and only the most relevant lines make it through – even regarding the musical threads; Wykill keeps things devoted to the cause. As such, this unique style will likely ring loud across all future releases.
