Last September, RadixTheRuler dropped one of my favorite hip-hop tunes of 2024 - "Hazy". Cloudy, smooth, playful, on the verge of old-school & newschool, with intricate sound design.

The US rapper returned today with a new single, this time more in the jazz/neo-soul hip-hop lane. "Crash Out" definitely feels more like a cruise along the sunny coast than a collision. His rapping is way more chill than we're used to, supported by warm keys, slick guitars, boom-bap drums & smooth sax (production courtesy of carelesscat).

What more can you ask for?
