S.Y.K.

Apocalyptic energy from one of the most exuberant members of legendary boyband BROCKHAMPTON. Merlyn Wood has always turned heads in the alternative rap scene with his tongue-n-cheek lyricism and contagious attitude and with this new track, he doesn’t disappoint. 

After several years of silence, Merlyn’s solo career seems to be on the verge of something truly exceptional. Pairing with enigmatic producer CONNIE, Merlyn’s new track ‘S.Y.K.’ delivers growling basslines and high-octane flows, in quintessential Merlyn fashion. Laser-like soundscapes and SOPHIE-inspired snare drums push this track into the future, reminiscent of BROCKHAMPTON’s latest LP. 

What may be considered a simple lyrical set by some, truly plays into Merlyn’s hands. His staggered delivery is ridiculously catchy while keeping a clear element of precision; he means every word he says. He’s playing to his formula that has worked time and time again, yet it’s inspiring to see his artistic progression from his earlier tracks like ‘Culdesac’.
