Kweku Collins • "Life Part 2"

I've sounded like a broken record on more than one occasion lately as I reflect on the wild year we've had so far and it's impossible to look back on 2016 without Kweku Collins' name popping up. The kid has had a sensational year that has only continued moving into the final quarter and today he continued his hot streak by teaming up with the DJBooth & Audiomack team to release "Life Part 2" alongside a video detailing the making of the track.

Since emerging with Closed Sessions just over a year ago, Collins has grown into one of the most exciting, multi-faceted young artists on the rise here or anywhere. Speaking as part of the Booth's 'Tracked Out' series, Collins continues to set a tone as a thoughtful, layered fresh voice from a city seemingly full of them. As for the track itself? You'll definitely hear it on the upcoming return of TheseDays Radio, yet another impressive turn from an act we've come to expect it from. Performing a few weeks ago as part of Closed Sessions' East Room romp with Boiler Room, Collins emerged as a fully-realized artist in the live setting, rattling off a growing list of hits with relative ease, continuing to develop a lively rapport with the crowd as his showmanship continues to evolve. Dude has plenty in store, with rumblings of another trip across the Atlantic, but for now get into his latest, available below.
