A strong online presence ensured Rakhim’s first foray into music would instantly find an audience. But his smooth, swaggering vocals and ear-catching beats are what quickly propelled the young talent into the hip-hop A-List. The bouncy, trap-driven mantra “Fendi” (later revisited in a collab with EDM DJ/producer R3HAB and rapper Smokepurpp) stands out in a set of alluringly fashion-forward jams. Alongside the bass-heavy, aspirational tracks in his arsenal, Rakhim also reveals a beautiful pop sensibility—laid out in achingly personal melodies and piano-laden pairings with the likes of Konfuz.
