Cakes da Killa drops his latest sonic creation, “Black Sheep,” on Young Art Records, triumphantly parading hit tracks “Cakewalk,” “Mind Reader” featuring Stout, and “Do Dat Baby” with a feature spot by Dawn Richard.
Delving into an odyssey of nightlife thrills and community spirit, “Black Sheep” resonates with the rich experiences that have coloured Cakes’ illustrious journey. His reputation for energetic live performances has been cemented with appearances at prestigious festivals like Glastonbury and Governors Ball. Collaborations with celebrated artists such as HoneyDijon and Injury Reserve further his decorated career.
The album signifies a reunion with long-term ally SamKatz, the talent behind the 2022 hit “Svengali.” Their creative chemistry is palpable throughout “Black Sheep” — a symphony of Cakes’ masterful lyrics and Katz’s dynamic beats. The record transports listeners from the pulsating clubs of Manhattan to the dynamic streets of Brooklyn, offering a narrative not only of survival but of an artist claiming his rightful place in the pantheon of hip-hop.
Cakes’ most cutting-edge lyrical work to date, “Black Sheep” heralds his ascension from the trenches of industry hustling to an emblematic foremother, leading a new wave of talent. With the soul of a poet and the heart of a champion, Cakes is not only a paragon for his fellow musicians but now steps into the limelight, ready to shine as a gleaming luminary.
