Up & coming R&B artist Kenneth Cash returns with the atmospheric new single “Juvi.” Listen HERE. Moody and multi-layered, the track showcases the Brooklyn artist’s insightful songwriting and innate ability to blur genres. It follows November’s debut “Catnip.”
Built upon a lurching beat and cascading melody, Cash delivers his mysterious lyrics in a sweet, half-whispered timbre, hinting at hidden chaos. “Something’s come and something’s gonna grab us, maybe not soon but does it really matter?” he sings over gentle rhythms and echoing effects, adding, “Wanna climb up but it’s a broken ladder.” Drawing upon influences such as Tame Impala and Radiohead, “Juvi” is as elusive as it is spellbinding. With “Juvi,” Cash levels up, delivering the kind of richly textured, strikingly original R&B that has made him one of 2022’s most exciting newcomers.
Over the last couple of years, Cash has made a name for himself in the Tri-State Area and well beyond. Earlier this month, he rolled out the video for “Catnip,” an R&B rumination brimming with bluesy beats and atmospheric guitar arrangements. The visualizer features Cash making his way about town in grainy, early-digital production. Once again, it reflects how little interest he has in being pinned down.
