Malaysian rapper Joe Flizzow—also known as The President—rose to fame as one half of notable '90s hip-hop duo Too Phat. After they split, Flizzow embarked on a solo career and carefully shaped a slick sound with mainstream appeal that built on his earlier success. Soaring pop hooks are layered over oozing R&B rhythms and sticky synth bass beats, a mix of Malay and English rhymes delivered with his trademark super-smooth flow. On "Baek", the MC unites East and West as he drops multi-lingual verses over stripped-back boom-bap drum loops, vocals rippling over cinematic samples in "Apa Khabar".
