By Rishma • On What is New

YKDis­con­nec­ted is the latest EP to come out of South Lon­don, brought to us by pro­du­cer and artist YK. The 5 track col­lec­tion will become avail­able from the 8th March 2019.

Dis­con­nec­ted is a group of tracks that illus­trate how we must over­come the these times of dark­ness and push through to find the light. The title sym­bol­ises the war­fare we exper­i­ence on a daily basis with the battle between phys­ic­al and men­tal wellbeing.

YK speaks truth about the struggles he faced with being a man of col­our grow­ing up in the south of Lon­don, feel­ing held back by his own shad­ow he channeled his energy into music to show­case his ambi­tion and determination.

YK’s sound blends clev­er lyr­ics with a set of melod­ic and syn­thet­ic beats. Each track on the EP brings a slightly dif­fer­ent ele­ment, start­ing off with the instru­ment­als in Live Forever to the heav­ier, faster paced vibra­tions of If Only and Big Dream. The third track ‘Lost’ is one that stands out on the record, start­ing off with dream­like notes that pro­gress into Hip Hop pulses. Lost is a large scale ana­logy of his awaken­ing and shift of con­scious­ness with­in his own belief sys­tem. To accom­pany this track, YK is work­ing with tal­en­ted anim­at­ors to bring his visu­als to life, set to be released in the near future.

YK is set to release his EP Dis­con­nec­ted is avail­able on all major digit­al platforms.
