DESCRIPTION:
Hip Hop / R& B & Rap Across 2x12" LP Poster + MP3 - Kaytranada makes a triumphant return, five years after "Bubba" and following production duties for a who's who of global celebrity rap and RnB talent including Anderson.Paak, Kendrick Lamar, Freddie Gibbs and Alicia Keys amongst many more.
"Timeless", like much of his output, plays like a mixtape, skirting around styles and flavours with tons of bravado and buckets of style. From the smooth RnB of opener "Spit It Out", through the tongue-in-cheek masculinity of "Call U Up" and onto the rousing, party-starting boom-bap of "Weird", the Haitian-Canadian producer doesn't hold any punches asserting himself in 2024.
Seemingly able to effortlessly merge electronic elements with live sounding funk jams, the producer's beats crunch, thud and spit in all the right places; with a modern sheen yet sounding natural with it. Given the wide range of vocal talent, it's testiment to Kaytranada's palette and production that the album retains a cohesive core throughout. It's classic in the classic sense - an album to be played from start to finish, not just three big hits segued into a load of filler. Perfect for the car or jeep, or more intimate moments indoors, "Timeless" is another winner from the much adored producer.

Kaytranada (stylized as KAYTRANADA, sometimes shortened as KAYTRA) is Haitian-Canadian music producer, rapper and singer Louis Kevin Celestin (born August 25, 1992). Celestin rose to prominence after releasing a series of mixtapes, remixes, and original music projects beginning in 2010 under the alias Kaytradamus. By 2013, and under the moniker Kaytranada, he began gaining wider recognition and, the following year, signed a deal with XL Recordings, with whom he released his debut studio album, 99.9%, in 2016. In 2019, he released its follow-up, Bubba, for which he won two Grammy Awards including Best Dance/Electronic Album. Celestin is one half of the hip hop duo The Celestics, along with his brother Lou Phelps.
Kaytranada arrived during the early 2010s with ear-perking remixes and an array of sounds that veered from J Dilla-inspired hip-hop beats to distinctly woozy house grooves. Numerous commissioned works and short-form solo releases led to his debut album, 99.9%—which went on to win the 2016 Polaris Music Prize and the 2017 Juno Award for Electronic Album of the Year. After signing to major-label RCA, the Haitian-Canadian released his second album, Bubba.
Kaytranada has worked with a wide array of artists including Anderson .Paak, Kendrick Lamar, Chance the Rapper, Robert Glasper, Lauren Faith, Mick Jenkins, GoldLink, Snoop Dogg, Freddie Gibbs, and Alicia Keys. His 2016 debut album, 99.9% features guest appearances from Phonte, Craig David, Vic Mensa, Little Dragon, and more. Bubba, his second album, was released the following December with Pharrell, Kali Uchis, and Masego among the contributors—and has won the young producer two Grammys at the 2021 Grammy Awards.
