Brand-new music from rapper Da L.E.S. is on the way! The rapper announced today that his highly-anticipated upcoming album ‘Caution To The Wind’ drops next Friday 20 November and as he prepares for the project’s release, he’s dropped his new star-studded collaboration ‘Elon Musk’ today.
The track features popular artists Focalistic, Kamo Mphela & Jobe London. Produced by Da L.E.S., GT Beats and Mphow69, “Elon Musk” is a unique fusion of Hip-Hop and Amapiano genres in a way that’s never been done before.
“Sonically on Elon Musk, I think GT Beats, Mphow69 and I did something really dope and different,” says Da L.E.S. “Working with Jobe London, Kamo and Focalistic really happened when we decided to fuse the two genres: Hip hop and Amapiano. I love collaborations and exchanging energy with younger artists. I would go into my studio feeling inspired and laydown tracks. These began to evolve organically, each track having its moment, creatively. It came to represent being positive when dealing with adversity, keeping your head up during challenges, overcoming and surviving. Sometimes with your back to the wall, you simply have to throw ‘Caution To The Wind'”!
On the new album, the rapper says that he tried to be innovative when it came to the music he created. “This album speaks to overcoming challenges, reaffirming a belief in oneself, being positive and, as always, having fun. It has allowed me to work with friends like AKA and Ishmael Morabe as well as artists who are taking Hip-Hop to the next generation, such as Focalistic,” says Da L.E.S.
