Though she is quiet and reserved in person, her lyrics can be raunchy (as heard on Jacquees’ “Want Your Sex”), disarmingly aggressive (“Problem”), or achingly tender (“No Fear”), while her sound incorporates influences like hip-hop stylist E-40 and R&B singer Anita Baker, two of her childhood favorites. The song exploded on social media, thanks in part to a Drake shout-out, and suddenly DeJ Loaf became an in-demand feature contributor, jumping on tracks by Lil Durk, The Game, and Tinashe. It’s the joy of a simple crush.Few artists emerge as fully formed on a debut single as DeJ Loaf did with 2014’s “Try Me.” From the jump, the Detroit rapper, born Deja Trimble in 1991, sounded utterly distinct, with a melodic rap cadence that wrapped her threats against all comers in a sparkling musical package. Y: Dej Loaf “No Fear” - I got to hear this song in the studio months ago when I interviewed Dej Loaf for a Fader feature and I still enjoy the light hook and the summer MCM hookup feel. Which you might think sounds horrible but I’m into it! - HC I like their rubbery new song “Nobody Cares,” which reminds me of something that probably would have come out on K Records in 2007, like The Blow or Kimya Dawson.
I loved it and had no clue who they were other than blogs saying that they were maybe a 17-year-old Japanese girl from Maine recording with seven different people in London.
Y: Superorganism, “Nobody Cares”-Earlier this year Frank Ocean played a song called “Something for your M.I.N.D.” on his radio show from this band Superorganism, now pulled from the Internet. “Tin” bounds in like mid-‘90s Todd Terry and then hooks you with a lovely cooing vocal sample that I’m almost positive come from the intro to Mariah Carey’s “We Belong Together.” Compulsively catchy, “Tin” luxuriates in the great gray area between song and track.
Y: Daphni “Tin” - Dan Snaith, whom you may know as Caribou, has unveiled the second offering from his upcoming Fabriclive mix that will be comprised entirely of his music (with a whopping 24 previously unreleased tracks). Every Marvel Superhero Needs a Kid Now, I Guess?
