[Electronic] Imad Royal – Down For Whatever Ft. Pell (Bronze Whale Remix)

Imad Royal
Down For Whatever Ft. Pell (Bronze Whale Remix)

It must have been a minute since we’ve heard anything new from Bronze Whale, but we can assure you that when they pop up in our feed, we’re listening. The guys’ latest work comes in the form of a remix of Imad Royal’s sensual track “Down For Whatever,” and it marks an interesting and pleasant deviation from the Austin duo’s normal routine.

If you’re familiar with Bronze Whale, this remix is probably going to catch you a bit off guard. As they distance themselves from their signature coalescing of future and trap-esque influence, they electrify the original with a new zest. Their production proves flawless as their unique sound surrounds and bolsters Royal’s smooth vocals, prompting listeners to zone in on both the original’s detail as well as the crisp new details of the remix.

[Alternative Pop] Imad Royal – Down For Whatever (feat. Pell)

Down For Whatever ft. Pell

Imad Royal and Pell are both at a turning point in their respective careers. “Down For Whatever” marks the second single of Imad Royal’s on the Nice Life label, and Pell is following up his widely praised album, LIMBO. There’s no shying away from the straightforward message on this tune, and these two are steadfast in their ways amidst an airtight assembly of pop, R&B, and hip-hop influence.

A song like this certainly marks a deviation from the usual sound of Imad Royal, even from his previous effort, but it’s a seamless transition for this multi-faceted artist. Having Pell come along to bring the track home with his rapid-fire delivery is just the icing on the cake. Imad Royal’s fairly recent name change also came with a shift in style, and it’s immediately evident that he refuses to take any shortcuts to showcase exactly what he strives for and cares about in his music. 2016 may have just begun, but, however bold of a claim this may seem, you’re already hearing an early contender for a top release of the year. There’s an undeniable catchiness and magnetic attitude throughout “Down For Whatever,” and it’s a sound that’s here to stay. Give it up for this dynamic duo and be sure to show them support in every way you can!

Sneak (feat. Pell, Michael Christmas, Wonda, & Maarlon)

Hip-hop has been beating its head against the wall for a while now. There aren’t a whole lot of artists out there pushing the sound, but one track I came along that has some personality and creative direction is “Sneak.” Casper & B. made this one with the help of fellow artists Pell, Michael Christmas, Wonda and Maarlon. For “Sneak” being their first single, they show a lot of promise. We will be keeping a sharp eye out on what they got going on in the future, but for now we have our ears all over this new jam. It’s a party-starting record with a truly sensational instrumental, paired with quality rhymes, making it a diamond in the rough. It’s more than simply a song, as they take you on a journey that lasts exactly five minutes long, but chances are you’re going to have this one on repeat like we do. Currently there is no download, but if anything changes, we’ll be sure to let you know!
