Smino

Elastic vocals and liquid-gold production that feels like a warm hug from the future. Soulful, rhythmically adventurous hip-hop for late nights and slow mornings.

It sounds like if a lava lamp could rap and had a really expensive studio.

A playful and sophisticated nocturnal energy that balances technical skill with soulful warmth.

Moments Worth Waiting For
the aggressive, percussive vocal delivery on KLINK that mimics the sound of ice in a glass
the transition into the hazy, wine-soaked atmosphere of MERLOT where the bass becomes a physical weight
the intricate vocal harmonies on KOVERT that stack until they feel like a choir of one man
