Respecta.is - The Ultimate Hip Hop Portal

Abstractions is an international collaboration featuring Maryland’s lyricist extraordinaire, K.A.A.N. going in with his signature machine gun flow over some of German producer Klaus Layer’s most unique soundscapes to date. Hip-Hop as a genre is big on labels and while many might consider the musical styles demonstrated on here to be “boom-bap” inspired with a side of “lyrical miracle,” there’s more than meets the ear happening here. The project is brief but thanks to the dense layers of both music and introspective wordplay crafted by the artists, listening to Abstractions is a very rewarding experience.
