OnCue – “No Setbacks”

blame it on Shake January 24, 2020

OnCue is back and he’s got a lot to get off his chest.

Seven months after I Hate Me Too was released, the Connecticut-bred artist returns to the DopeHouse with his new single, “No Setbacks.” It’s the first of many new drops he’ll be making in 2020.

“For the last six months I’ve never been more productive in my life,” Cuey said on Instagram. “Recently, I’ve felt more mental clarity than I’ve had in some time now. This year, I wanna try things differently. Rather than hoarding and tweaking an album til perfection, I want to give you the songs in real time. I create, I release. Look at it as a window into the creative process, how I move from song to song in creation, how I distribute my emotions across album mode.

“So with that being said – you’re getting the album, single by single,” he continued. “I vow to you you’ll get more music this year from me than you EVER have in a year span. I’m not sitting here saying I’m dropping a song every week. No, I’m not setting myself up for a standard to potentially forfeit quality, but the releases will be more frequent than they’ve ever been. No rules. I’ve let go, and ran out of fucks to give and this process feels right to me. 2020 for me; is all about going with my gut. I’ve ignored my gut one too many times and it stops now.”

Produced by ymar, “No Setbacks” can be heard below.
