Skiifall – Problems (produced by Kenny Beats)

 

Skiifall returns to share new single “Problems,” a lovers rock anthem that serves as the first taste of a forthcoming project that is due before 2024 is over. The Kenny Beats-produced single finds Skiifall more overtly embracing his Caribbean heritage more than anything in his catalog to date. While the sound of his native Saint Vincent has been present throughout his discography, it has historically been hybridized with the sounds of UK rap, which lets “Problems” stand out as the start of a stark new chapter in Skiifall’s career.

Speaking about the single, Skiifall shares:

“What speaks to me most about lovers rock is the joy in it. I grew up with it being played all around me and I always thought of it more as background music, but as I grew older the nostalgia brought me peace in moments of chaos. From there, I started exploring more artists who made lovers rock, but never knew how to approach the sound for myself. When I met Kenny we talked about my love for the genre and he really instilled the confidence in me to try it out. That first session ended up turning into something I would have never imagined.”
