Brooklyn-hailing, Freeport-based wordsmith Spaceman is well versed in the art of sonically storming compositions. Armed with a distinct lyrical depth, if he were to put ‘Alchemist’ at the top of his resumé, nobody could question it. Following the growth of a superbly varied catalogue with releases like ‘Forget It’ and ‘Obedience Training’ garnering thousands of streams, the unique talent now returns with his latest offering ‘Thrift and Diligence’ as part of his album ‘Annihilation’.
Having created a sound that resembles a transformative potion of wondrously alternative hip hop sounds and echoes of Toronto-esque toplines, the master of alchemy has stirred up some magic yet again. By fusing the perfect melodic and upbeat rapping flares with evergreen tones and seamlessly integrating them, Spaceman’s latest offering lends itself to an introspective listening experience that envelopes its listener in a toe-tapping, head-bopping moment.
Crooning over a journeyed beat, Spaceman strikes the perfect balance of mellow cadence and recite-worthy hooks resulting in a cleverly complex track in wonderfully simple clothing. As Spaceman continues to interlink classic, evergreen styles with pleasing, unexpected flips, his signature unruffled and unhurried flow is one that resonates with every rap lover.
Since the day Spaceman realised his zest for surrounding himself with like-minded creatives, he has consistently worked to develop his craft and collate ever-growing knowledge. As the emerging wordsmith seeks to discover a pure means of translating and understanding his environment in all he releases, he crafts a refreshingly different sound that is also consistent with the stylistic trends of today’s hip hop soundscapes.
“You’ve gotta laugh to keep from crying” - Spaceman
His latest delivery explores a duality of ideas and emotion, as his crisp delivery and unique production style supports his contemplative offering. Coupled with his stoic, efficient rap style and winking wit, this is an artist born out of pure organic growth. As his dynamic background and points of reference ground him, he embarks on a journey of self-discovery. The result being a contemplative track that prickles the ears of many.
