Tripp Denom - Run The Budget Up (feat. Felice LaZae)
Hip Hop/Rap, R&B, Pop
California, United States
Overall Impression: Tripp Denom pioneers the Stoner Indie genre with his original double album, The Grand Conjunction - split into smaller EPs and set to release across streaming platforms over the next several months. Smooth, sonorous, and intimately immersive, Tripp Denom's track "Run The Budget Up" brilliantly captures the essence of the burgeoning genre, clocking in as the second track on Lady & the Tripp E.P. (Songs from Jupiter T.G.C.) with a resonant vibe and a flawless flow!
Strongest Point(s): From top to bottom, Tripp Denom's sound is fully cohesive. Ethereal pads mingle with laid back drum and bass lines to pave a spaced-out soundscape for Tripp's warm and relaxing vocal approach - contrasted nicely by a bright and colorful vocal hook that does well to expand the already immense scope of sound in "Run The Budget Up". Clever sound design supports a lyrical theme that seeks to deliver listeners a slice of the high life, and does so with stylistic strength and a bold sense of artistic authenticity.
Target Audience Appeal: Fans of Indie Hip Hop and Rap will find themselves completely enamored by the sound that Tripp Denom finds in "Run The Budget Up"! Specifically leaning into sonic themes of space and relaxation, "Run The Budget Up" stands to introduce a wide range of listeners to the Stoner Indie genre, and Tripp Denom is bound to find an avid following among those that enjoy the vibe. Spacious and soulfully wrought, "Run The Budget Up" has discerning listeners patiently waiting for the next installment from The Grand Conjunction - though Lady & The Tripp is plenty enough to enjoy for the moment!
