Cakes Da Killa - Black Sheep

Black Sheep’s inspired by seeing the world, embracing the nightlife and building community. Whether holding court, going through customs, or crushing competition, Cakes stands firm as a seasoned vet who knows his role and knows the game. He moves through mess with a wise poise, having persevered through blogs, SoundCloud, an ongoing  global pandemic, and an ever-shifting music landscape prioritizing everything but talent and taste. Nevertheless, his critical and communal acclaim precede him: he’s played Glastonbury, Governors Ball, Sonar, and Whole Festival. He’s worked with everyone from Honey Dijon to Injury Reserve to Rye Rye.

Black Sheep may be the name, but it’s a thrilling listen that spends its time basking in the light. When concerning the pen, Cakes’ relationship to isolation became inspiration for some of his sharpest writing and most electrifying performances to date. He silenced the outside voices, and leaned fully into his versatility: more melodic hooks, even slicker punchlines, and the signature voice that always cuts through with an assertive, raw power.  
 
As darkness looms in our global conditions, Cakes da Killa offers new avenues to escape; not of negligence, but of recovery to continue fighting. In a sense, Black Sheep is a coronation of his graduation to foremother: a figure who spent his 20s hustling alongside his peers, focusing on the work, and paving the way for the generation we see today. He’s a rapper’s rapper, a girl’s girl, and he’s ready to be a superstar.
