Live Review: Hugh Augustine recruits Syd Tha Kyd for 'Nights On Replay'

HUGH AUGUSTINE is one of L.A's biggest emerging rappers right now, most recently featuring on Isaiah Rashad's debut album The Sun's Tirade. Now, he's making waves with his latest track 'Nights On Replay'. Who else to recruit for this sexy slow r&b jam than the one of the hottest and most alluring voices right now - SYD THA KYD, another recruit from The Sun's Tirade.

Let's begin with the production. 'Nights on Replay' has one hell of a production team, teaming up with The Most Art, comprising of producers A.WALKER, DEZ JETSON and TREBLE aka E. At the beginning of the track you'll hear the sampling of Disclosure's 'You & Me', which may seem out of place but surprisingly sets the mood the for the song. The Most Art's "forever goal is to create undeniable, replayable, and genuine art. The team is made up of music producers dedicated to promoting and nurturing unique sound". Keep an eye out for these guys, because their sound is fire.

Hugh Augustine has a sultry laid back sound that puts you at ease, yet he still has a smart and witty flow. Having Syd (The Internet) as a feature really ties up and perfects the vibe, as she's known for her angelic yet alluring vocals. Hugh's flow and Syd's voice combined really completes the 4am laid back sexy vibe of the track. Take a listen below:

If you're still sleeping on Hugh Augustine, I'd wake up. There's also a sweet video for 'Nights On Replay', directed by APLUS.
