Brixton-born artist, rapper and producer GAIKA is due to release his forthcoming album, Drift, the most stylistically accurate representation of his personal tastes to date.
Drift is non-conforming and genre blending. Whilst hard to neatly fit in a box, the record feels like an avant garde blend of electronic, hip-hop, punk and grunge music featuring soundscapes recorded from GAIKA’s travels abroad. Shapeshifting and cinematic in style, GAIKA draws inspiration from musical greats; Prince, Wu Tang Clan, Massive Attack and John Coltrane, with his approach akin to the Pink Siifus, A$AP Rockys and Dean Blunts of this world.
GAIKA’s sound spans from grime, dancehall, R&B, electronic and beyond, often weaving in political commentary through his lyricism. This new album is an ensemble record with GAIKA as the central writer, working with collaborators bBbyMutha, KIDÄ, Azekel, Charlie Stacey, Chamber 45, Brbko, The Narrator (Amber Joy), SAMANTHA and more.
