A response to society's unraveling moral fabric, the latest single "Faceless" from Ex Mykah spotlights the West's increasingly naked fear of 'the other'. Meshing haunting hip-hop structures with leftfield pop flourishes, the LA-based producer/vocalist takes aim at the toxic, hypocritical pedantry embedded into our politics and religion.
"Faceless' offers another clue into Ex Mykah's forthcoming debut album hinting at a sound that is equally seductive as it is idiosyncratic, with its narrative gravitating towards the grim realities of this modern age: unjust economic systems, drug abuse, increasing tribalism/hive-mind, and the decline of a now unrecognizable 'America'.
"Gritty yet with a sensual quality, Ex Mykah's music takes its cues from contemporaries such as Kendrick Lamar and Frank Ocean." - Clash Music
"Lushly produced—maybe even to the point of adjectives like “narcotic”—hip-hop-gone-abstract song that’s bristling with strange and anxious energy in everything from its rhythm to its melody." - LA Record
