No question, in this moment, dae zhen. is the most fly artist coming out of sunny CA. There's an exciting and jubilant quality to the track, akin to the pure joy of a James Brown song. dae zhen. packs so much range into such a particular, soulful sound. Bouncing synths cede control of the melody to his rich singing, and his writing is ever-witty and charming.
"Smooth" is the second single off of dae zhen.'s forthcoming album.
