Peddling a fresh and melodic take on the modern L.A. sound, Kalan.FrFr effortlessly straddles the line between raw street rap and smooth R&B.
Stepping into the spotlight for a versatile new project, Kalan shares TwoFr 2. Spanning 13 tracks, the new project is an excellent showcase of what helps the Compton native standout in a crowded hometown scene, namely his silky, rhythmic croon and his sharp sense of songcraft.
TwoFr 2 opens up with mission statement “Look At Me,” a breezy and confident riders anthem, in which the 25-year-old artist marvels at how far he’s come and mourns the grandmother who always believed in him: “Granny look at me/I know you smile at me when I see the clouds move/I know you proud of me.” The project progresses through romantic ballads like “Big Dog,” flex-heavy anthems like “Ima Ball,” which alludes to his past as a Division I athlete, to rap-style hybrids like “Never Lose You.”
Along with the TwoFr 2 project, Kalan comes through with a cinematic interpretation of his latest single “No Love.” Featuring a breezy beat from Cypress Moreno and a soulful verse from Mozzy, “No Love” is a melodic examination of one of life’s most important questions.
