Darrin Bradbury Shares New Lyric Video For Kennedy-Inspired Track “Dallas 1963”
“‘Dallas 1963’ is one of the stranger songs on an already odd album,” Bradbury said. “It’s one of my personal favorites, though I’m not entirely sure why. I tend to stumble onto these Kennedy references in my records, I wouldn’t say they’re intentional, but when the opportunity reveals itself I tend to like to see where it goes. The animation is pretty spectacular (I can say that it because it wasn’t me) and brings to the song to life in a way that bridges two loves of mine, silly songs about deep things and cartoons.”

One of the fans favorite is “Nightmares At The Bottom” featuring YWN Melly, produced by Polk County Shaq D, its a melodic street record where the two have nightmares of being broke over box chevy pounding 808s and piano chords. The Tokyo Jetz song “Call It Quits” still is men and women’s one favorite. Burga takes you down relationship lane where he is calling it quits and Tokyo Jetz fires back from female perspective. -Ayana Rashed (Respect Mag)
