Future
“Crushed Up” / “Jumpin’ On A Jet”
THE WIZRD (out 01.18 on Freebandz/Epic)
Though his legendary reign was showing signs of slowing down in that 2016-17 period, Nayvadius the Great came back strong last year with a handful of monster singles and Beastmode 2, his best project of the last few years. And judging by the rock-solid pair of pre-release singles from THE WIZRD, his fertile creative streak is well and truly back on. Both tracks are weightless, wobbly, mid-tempo burners that are absolutely loaded with sticky, druggy hooks. More than anything, he sounds inspired again. And when he’s in that mood, there’s nobody better.
