Description
2021, 12″ EP, Rhythm Section International. Yellow marbled vinyl.
He may not have achieved the same acclaim and status as his fellow West Coast native Thundercat, but Mychaal Fisher AKA MMYYKK looks set to follow in his footsteps. His genre-bending music, as showcased on this brilliant Rhythm Section International debut, draws on a similar pool of influences – think Prince style purple funk, jazz, hip-hop, R&B and classic electrofunk – while also upping the soul factor to dizzyingly high levels. The results speak for themselves, with Fisher – in cahoots with a wealth of collaborators from around the world – remaining front and centre throughput thanks to his own emotive lyrics and smooth-as-butter lead vocals. In other words, it’s an EP you need in your life right now. – Juno
