Dance, Pop | Kai Straw Inspires With Crossover Single “Light Speed”
Posted by VMan on November 8, 2019
Kai Straw is someone we’ve been posting about for quite a while. Through the years he’s managed to keep things extremely fresh with a wide array of sounds that seem to ensnare everyone who listens to him. Lately, he’s dipped his toes into the dance pop world with a couple of smash hit singles and now he’s added a third with “Light Speed.” I have to say, this may be his best crossover single to date and one of his top records out of his full discography. Although, that’s a tough call with so many great singles. Have a listen to “Light Speed” and the rest of his tracks to see just where it sits with you.
Chill, Indie | Kai Straw Exceeds All Expectation With GUN LP
Posted by VMan on February 7, 2018
Kai Straw’s album GUN is something I’ve been waiting on since I heard the first single several months ago. A couple other singles have made their way out since then and they had me at the edge of my seat. The thing is when you anticipate something, you create an expectation for it. Whatever I had in mind was completely shattered when I ran through this LP the first time. It’s just incredible. The song writing is as good as it gets and Kai gracefully bounces between genres on this one making it a journey from start to finish. If you could only listen to one album this week, you’d make it this one.
