Channel Tres is one of the artists we’re most looking forward to hearing from this year. The Compton man’s music combines West Coast hip-hop vocals with Detroit house, but it doesn’t sound at all forced. It’s like nothing else out there, so it’s no wonder Robyn and Vince Staples have got him supporting them on tour.
Before he hits the road, Tres is sharing “Brilliant Nigga,” another stylish record, and his first release of 2019 so far. “They tried to put shackles on you, girl just be yourself,” he says on the track. “Might as well pay for it ’cause you know they need your help.”
