How Kamaiyah Made The Hottest Mixtape of 2016
FUSE TV - How Kamaiyah Made The Hottest Mixtape of 2016
“Aw, shit—it’s Kamaiyah!/Aw, shit—please retire!/Hot girl, set the city on fire!”
That’s the exclamation at the end of both verses on Kamaiyah’s “How Does It Feel,” a deliriously joyful single about getting money, popping champagne and flipping off haters, among other things. Released last October, “How Does It Feel” was a warning shot, a harbinger that something big and euphoric was approaching. That something was A Good Night In The Ghetto, Kamaiyah’s debut mixtape released in mid-March; it’s as clever, consistent and flat-out fun as its lead single, and it's rapidly turning the 21-year-old Oakland native into a star.
“I’m just positive, and I want to have fun,” Kamaiyah tells Fuse. “I’m fucking 21 years old, and you gotta have fun in your 20s! I made a project that isn’t telling you to do drugs or be sad. I feel like a lot of music nowadays is hella dark, and I didn’t want to make a project that was dark. I wanted something upbeat—the public hasn’t heard that in a long time.”
