KennyV by Serengeti

For fans of MF Doom, DJ Shadow, RXKNephew, sound collage, and that one friend you have with the craziest ways of telling every story, KennyV by Serengeti gives us a tense slice of life using an abstract hip hop style with instantly unforgettable production. Early digital age samples drenched in a distant reverb make up the spine of each beat, which when combined with a generally minimal percussive touch sets the perfect stage for abstract lyricism. These lyrics make constant reference to contemporary culture, urgently conveying esoteric messages which harmonize with the fever dream noise we constantly find ourselves immersed in online. Flows organize as a stream of consciousness, resembling the limitless transmission of information we’re encouraged to let loose into the vast algorithmic ether. However, the tension inherent in that emphatic delivery haunts us, representing our own experiences shouting into the abyss of the internet and receiving a deafening silence in return.
