Kida - Blues 101

Artist: Kida

Producer: Smokey Beatz

Album: None (Promo Single)

Label: Oso Reel Ent/a.Fam

No, the latest DJBooth feature from Kida doesn’t feature the West Coast representative talking us through the history of blues music from the early 20th Century to today—as dope as that would undoubtedly be. Instead, Blues 101 offers a crash course on the Cali rhymesayer’s deepest personal struggle and anxiety. The aptly-named Smokey Beatz mans the boards, flipping a moody jazz sample as the Inglewood native looks back at his father’s untimely death in the streets, juxtaposing those painful memories with bars depicting his relationship with his own son. This poignant jam is currently unattached to any forthcoming project but, if you’re feeling it, you can keep your browsers locked to The DJBooth for he latest from the West Coast buzzmaker.

DJ Z DJ Booth Crew Total Ratings: 11882	Rating: DJ Z's Top Rated Songs Reminded me of something we'd hear on the regular from Booth fave K. Sparks. I think Kida could have benefited from a different, even more laid back approach on the mic to complement the production and a better overall mix/master on the record. Follow @DJBooth
