Emerging Hip-Hop Beatmaker King Shares Delicious Instrumental "Suslord Theory" + New LP Tracklist

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

Perhaps you're already familiar with the lovely R&B duo King, whose divine vocal talents have been keeping us more than content for quite some time. Today, however, you're going to update your contacts and rolodexes, because a new hip-hop troubadour bearing the same name is firing funky shots across the bow. Signed to Alpha Pup Records, King have just released their new single "Suslord Theory," which features a beat constructed of clean, instrumental samples (guitar, piano, drums, trumpet--it's all here folks) and slathered with a veneer of synthesized gleam.

"Suslord Theory" is the debut single off of King's upcoming LP Let Flavor Manifest, a 16 track demonstration of his unpredictable, vintage--inspired beatmaking. Filled with equal parts samples and brand new compositions. An acolyte of the Los Angeles Low End Theory scene, King takes a new-limits approach to his work and on Let Flavor Manifest samples strange vocals, feral beats and experimental sounds from all available sources. Okayplayer is proud to premiere the tracklisting to King's new LP below, and we recommend you put "Suslord Theory" on repeat for the rest of your afternoon.
