There's been a hip-hop and house crossover building for decades that deserves recognition.At the
forefront of New York's house-rap scene since 2011, the introspective Cakes toes the line between
bounce and thought. - NPR
Cakes Da Killa seamlessly blends club music with hip-hop - just like he has over the past decade. -
CONSEQUENCE OF SOUND
New Jersey hip-hop / house innovator Cakes Da Killa has announced his long-awaited second album
Svengali available 23 rd June via the TOKiMONSTA owned label Young Art Records. With it Cakes adds
another landmark to his catalogue and brings the long-running relationship between hip-hop and
house music into a new chapter. Today you can watch a video for the new and seductive title track
"Svengali", in which Cakes presses pause on the real-time rundown of a decadent night out to
whisper a question to the object of his interest: "I know you're touching me / but are you feeling
me?" The single follows "Drugs Du Jour" and "Sip Of My Sip" both of which are included on the
album.
Svengali is a cinematic experience, charting a love affair from hookup to breakup, with all of the
highs and lows of romance and attraction in between. Always a brutally (and hilariously) unfiltered
voice, the album sees Cakes bringing a new layer of vulnerability and depth to his writing, charting
the vicissitudes of love in and out of the club. Coming on the heels of the high-energy cult-favorite
Muvaland Vol. 1 & 2 mixtapes (but recorded before either of them), Svengali dials back the manic,
rave-till-dawn energy in favor of beats by producer Sam Katz that offer more subtle moods, as well
as a jazz influence that connects Cakes to the early days of queer culture that bubbled up out of New
York jazz clubs and the sonically ambitious jazz lovers who pioneered house music.
