Edgy, daring, and unafraid to push creative boundaries in their immersive approach to musical composition, Los Angeles-based nightmare pop artist KENNSIX has been setting the standard for haunting and assertive music since emerging onto the scene a few short years ago. Defined by their work that encompasses not only their music, but a full multimedia experience they cultivate through an ambitious and nuanced approach to creating a full aesthetic through the projects they undertake. Their latest single, BORN SICK, proves a marquee standout in their already robust portfolio of records, as it takes listeners on a multifaceted sensory journey through its aggressive, yet poignant, tonal progression.
The piece begins with a series of heavily pulsating electronic accouterments that evoke an adrenaline surge from the music’s first seconds. The artist’s vocals begin in tandem, as they immediately set the narrative up with the opening line “I was born sick, I cry, I was born sick, I try.” The inescapable intensity of the tonal flow fills listeners with a sense of ominous anticipation as the tune develops and we feel the world of this music build around us in real time.
Through their notes and verses, the artist showcases their proclivities as an innovator and a provocateur, as they showcase their interpretation of the human condition as they see it in their mind’s eye. Having accomplished so much with this latest single, fans can only wait with excitement to see what could possibly be coming next from this young artist’s mind and studio.
