If you are tired of listening to the same old trap music that glorifies the same evil—from drugs, to flashy lifestyles, crime—with curse words that make you cringe every time the music is played with your family around (you know that shame you get on behalf of all of them), then North Carolina-based artist Kayo Bracey is your saving grace. If you hadn’t already known about him, don’t worry because this is the right time—a time guaranteed to change your playlist for the better. He represents the good side of trap; music that carries a deeply relevant and positive message. He uses his lyrical gifts to rap about Christ and everything He represents.
With the drums rolling, both eager fans and new listeners are looking forward to the release of his new anthem, dubbed “Steppin on my problems” that is scheduled for an August 1, 2023, official release.
This is music that powerfully resonates yet feels heavenly, capturing a unique balance. The beat is simply stunning, and the message is more appealing.
The theatrical drum rolls set the tone for this tune, and you can’t help but reminisce about a football game where drummers set the mood with their rhythmic beats before the game kicks off.
Kayo then makes a grand entry with the hook for this sensational masterpiece—a chorus that is guaranteed to remain stuck in your head for the rest of the week.
Kayo then vividly paints pictures with his words, praising God for his never-ending grace and how he is stepping into the kingdom of God like a drum major. This performance is imbued with wise perspectives and masterful flows over the catchy drum-flavored beat. His voice is expressive, ideal for the genre, and he knows how to demand a listener’s attention with his intricate wordplay and storytelling knack.
This is the kind of music that gets you dancing on your feet as you relish every second of it and, owing to the easily quotable rhymes, especially the hook, singing along as if no one’s listening.
