IDK & KAYTRANADA Join Forces For ‘Simple’ EP

blame it on Meka May 6, 2022

Linking with GRAMMY-winning producer KAYTRANADA, DMV representative IDK drops a Simple project.

“There’s a neighborhood in my city called ‘Simple City.’ It gets its name because you can get killed for any simple reason,” IDK explains. “Simple City is also the birthplace of Marvin Gaye. I wanted to tell the story of Simple City in a way that it’s never been told before. From drug abuse to crime and murder, I wanted to cover what it feels like to be from Simple City and teach the world that the fix to helping disadvantaged Black communities isn’t as simple as you think. The way people view our mentalities is a straightforward thing. There’s a lot of depth and it should be handled with care. I wanted to create a project where people can ‘dance to real sh*t’”.

Led by the singles “Dog Food” and “Taco,” Denzel Curry is the EP’s lone guest feature. Stream SImple below.
