Although a majority of his creations are largely influenced by dance music, KAYTRANADA is a natural when it comes to collaborating with rappers.The album has been a labour of love spanning nearly a decade with the origins of KAYTRAMINÉ trace back to 2014, when Aminé unveiled 'Not At All,' an unofficial remix of KAYTRANADA's 2013 track 'At All. The standout feature belongs to Freddie Gibbs, who sounds right at home on “letstalkaboutit,” wielding a rapid-fire flow as smooth as Kaytra’s plunging bassline.

It feels like the kind of song that’ll grow on me, but on first listen, the off-kilter energy threw me off and it felt like something that didn’t quite make the cut for the White Lotus soundtrack. Once I tapped into that Hip Hop scene – the battle rappers, the producers – in Montreal, then I didn’t feel like such an outsider.

Ecleen Luzmila Caraballo:It’s a three-way tie between the excellent album-opener “Who He Iz,” the sultry, Amaarae-assisted track “Sossaup,” and obvious standout of a single “4EVA” with Pharrell.

The upcoming album showcases the pair reigniting their innate chemistry, further solidifying their musical bond. The album showcases the pair reigniting their innate chemistry, further solidifying their musical bond. A collaboration with its origins going back to 2014 and Aminé’s unofficial remix of Kaytranada’s 2013 track ‘At All’, ‘Kaytraminé’ is a joyous, tropical collection of eleven tracks of funk-infused house that sees each artist amplify the other’s skill sets, and features big ticket guest appearances in Pharrell Williams, Snoop Dogg, Freddie Gibbs and Amaarae.The two blessed our ears with a playful, summer-appropriate anthem last month in “4EVA” which featured production assistance from Pharrell, and they released its music video and performed it for the first time live during Kaytranada‘s dance-y set for weekend one of Coachella. Over its 40 years in business, PIAS has grown to be one of the largest independently-owned music groups in the world, carving out its own in-house recorded music division PIAS [Recordings]. In 2021, Aminé told me about his real-life friendship with Kaytranada (they throw parties and have dinners together) and Kaytraminé feels like an album made by two friends whose main goal was to make fun music they could play at their own parties.
