Press Quotes
Groove is the heart of throbbing solo debut from laid back Kenyan rapper and producer.
The musician who shares a nickname with an irascible cartoon koala doesn't stray too far from the spiked hybrid electro-hop of Just A Band-the revolutionary Odd Future-like collective he leads. No two tracks are quite alike as he tackles everyday struggles (Bills To Pay) via nagging electro riffs, chipmunk vocals and warm guitar slick, interpolates tribal chants over high-end trap synths (Don't Worry), shows off his Chiptune funk chops or engages in stripped, soul-searching duets with Zambian rapper Samba The Great and South African singer Petite Noir. He may whisper ''Nairobi can you fell me'' over Winner's warm and bubbly interface, but Blinky Bill has the undeniable swagger of an artist with the world in his sights.
