Listen: Martin $ky – Polaroid (Prod. by Knxledge)

Guitar strum wails and midi devised melodies jangle and dip in subtle swooshing fashion, acting as the backdrop for one of the hottest MC’s still flying under the radar, Chicago’s Martin $ky.

At the tender age of 18, the prolific rapper has already developed a swagger and style beyond his years, boasting lyrical flips and quick witted lines that behave like smoke tendrils swirling through the connoisseur of downtempo beats, Knxledge’s hazy, electronic vibes.

‘Polaroid’ is just the carrot being dangled on the end the musical string, the first taste of what’s to come on Martin $ky’s debut album, #timeLESS, which drops on 12 April.
