How It Goes by James Tonic, Kodak Black and Daniil, Electronic Press Kit
Out now. A dream pop hook wrapped around two rap verses. Explicit.
The Record
How It Goes is what happens when dream pop moshes with rap. James Tonic builds the hook, all Montreal at 3am haze, then hands the floor to two rappers who pull it to the trenches. Kodak Black answers from Florida. Daniil answers from Ísland. It should not fit together, and that is exactly why it works. Out now on Drummer Records.
James Tonic. Montreal. Dream pop that sounds like a city you only see at night.
Kodak Black. Florida. One of the most recognizable voices in American rap.
Daniil. Iceland. Rap from the far north.
Music
Clean and explicit versions are both available. The explicit version is the lead.
