CRITICAL by KABASHI
Peeling open the moment-to-moment promises and betrayals of living in a torn United States, CRITICAL rushes warmly, rightly, like blood—life-giving and dangerous—in the ears. CRITICAL is the sound of battering protest, tidal energy, the notes and chords of a dream stitched by history and being made real.
Written for the men, women, and children standing against oppression, against brutality, against rising U.S. fascism, CRITICAL is a pulsing beat of this movement, this moment. From the first note, CRITICAL ebbs and flows with the energy, the forward pull, the empowering push of people—people, people, holding onto each other and saying in one voice—no.
Speaking through rich multi-instrumental productions and creative yet direct lyricism, Kabashi introspects and fights back against systems of oppression through vibrations.
For fans of Gang Starr and Kendrick Lamar.
