Around - Proklaim (Hiphop) We couldn’t help but wind our hips when listening to Prokaim’s latest record, Around, and think you’ll do the same. It’s an infectious groove with a 00s R&B sensibility, conjuring images of basking in the summer sun on a private yacht. Proklaim delivers a hyper chill groove with a catchy earworm of a chorus, providing the needed musical tension with a driving guitar pluck as a through line that carries the listener through the track. Vocally, we’re getting Kendrick vibes, and Proklaim is undoubtedly skilled with the pen. The lyrics are clever and distinctive, performed expertly with a liquid flow that rides the beat. This one goes on your summer playlist next to some DJ Khaled.
Best Lyric: “You’ll never get to where you wanted if you never start.”
