In terms of weight, grit, and meaning in Hip Hop, few speak as sturdily, point blank period. Kandalit, a Gambian-born, UK-raised Emcee/Producer and Sound engineer, returns with a unique track, "Go Get It," a statement of intent that doubles as motivation and a warning shot, woven with his punchlines and razor wordplay that defies reality.
From the first beat, you're sucked into Kandalit's world, grim, heavy production created by his own hand, with every minor detail from the mix to the mastering polished for maximum resonance. Kandalit studied Music Technology nearly a decade ago, and it's clear that he doesn't simply rap over beats, he constructs an entire environment that is impossible to ignore. "Go Get It" is enlivened by this state, a record that carries with it his commitment not just to saying what's real but to pressing on with dogged resilience. Fans familiar with Kandalit's background as the powerhouse behind Hip Hop 101 on Paradise TV and Paradise FM know him as a supporter of lyricism and a supportive voice within the culture. But here, he brings that focus inward, turning his own hungers into an anthem that's both deeply specific and universally relatable.
With "Go Get It," Kandalit reinstitutes his status as an artisan MC. The bars are hard, the cadence air-tight, and the production is characteristic of a sound that's unapologetically gritty but intricately engineered.
In an era of Hip Hop where content is all too frequently substituted for fashion, Kandalit serves as a testament to what happens when the artist truly owns his artistry. "Go Get It" is an announcement. And if you listen closely, too, it's also an invitation now is the time to make your move, now is the moment to create what you will become, now is when you seize what belongs to you.
