Keyon | The Canadian Triple Threat
We are happy to introduce you to Keyon. Aside from the beautiful artistry the Canadian possesses, he produces, mixes, masters, and writes all of his own tracks. Keyon is the whole package. The quickest comparison he draws is PartyNextDoor, as he is comfortable exhibiting his impressive vocal range on seductive R&B tracks. He recently dropped an album titled ‘Summers Not Over‘, and the 3rd track ‘What You Like‘ is jam packed with tastefully placed harmonies and soft-sung vocals doubled with higher octave melodies. He teases a sensual tension through his lyricism in this track, and the production works perfectly with the vibe he aimed for. Straight Marvin Gaye seduction mixed into modern day hip hop.
When it rains, I be thinking about you
My favorite track by him is definitely ‘When It Rains’ off of his album, ‘Summers Not Over’. The acoustic guitar melody looming through the song is complimented lustfully by perfectly placed 808’s. In addition to his production skills, his cadence on his delivery is on point. The chorus “when it rains, I be thinking about you” really sets the mood for the gloomy, nostalgic vibe- which was perfectly executed. The pain is felt in this song. His ability to make you feel that pain is why you should be excited. The ability to convey emotional feeling through words is a skill that Keyon clearly posses. I highly suggest giving his album a thorough listen. Trust me, you will be able to extract a wealth of emotion from it.
We are excited to hear what else Keyon has in store, and are happy that we could expose his talent to you, here at Rap Fiesta.
