Touch down in ‘BUDAPEST’ with Zulu Abantu’s Seminal Alt-Hip-Hop Track

Posted on 4 April 2024

Zulu Abantu may have cut his teeth in the grime scene, but he is coming into his own through vibrant genre fusions, especially after the drop of his latest single, ‘BUDAPEST‘. This track is a cultural mosaic, melding the raw edge of grime with the soulful depths of R&B and the universal appeal of pop.

‘BUDAPEST’ resonates with an exotic flair, breaking the monocultural mould with its eastern rhythms that weave through the production atop the trap beats, while Zulu Abantu’s vocal versatility is on full display, proving that his voice can effortlessly bridge grime, R&B, and reggaeton.

For those who crave rap tracks that abstract from material reality and transport you to domains you’d die to explore in physical form, ‘BUDAPEST’ hits the mark. The hooks in this track are not just irresistible; they are a siren call to those seeking musical exploration beyond the conventional.

Zulu Abantu’s journey from grime to an eclectic mix of genres is a testament to his artistic evolution. With a decade of dedication to his craft, he’s got what it takes to perpetually change the atmosphere of the alt-hip-hop scene.

BUDAPEST hit the airwaves on March 20; stream the single on Spotify and YouTube.

Run Over Dogs has dropped ‘G0t W0rse / All G0ne’

Posted on 29 April 2020

Run Over Dogs has released single ‘G0t W0rse / All G0ne’ an eerie and mysterious piece with many Rock elements.

Starting off with the pluck of the strings, adding in that electric riff as the vocals come in, in a rather low-pitched gravelly sound as they tend to become distorted and they begin to really hit the high notes and the pitch heightens as it begins to fade in and out.

Having that rough texture on the vocals keeping the pitch at that same low volume throughout, making sure to still continue to have that steady flow between the vocals and the instrumentation.

The instrumentals begin to cut through whilst having this static effect added to them that continues through as the clasp of the electric guitar strings play over the top with that same style of instrumentation playing till the end as it begins to fade out slowly.

Listen to Run Over Dogs G0t W0rse / All G0ne by heading over to YouTube now.
