Michigan-based rapper/singer Tunde Olaniran shares the first taste off his forthcoming album Transgressor with "Namesake." The new single sees the Nigerian-rooted Olaniran pairing personal lines about self-growth and his youth in London over jolting bursts of stuttering electronics, following the blend of hip-hop, R&B and punk that he explored in last year's Yung Archetype EP. As he explains to Noisey, "'Namesake' is an emotional journey for me, and the energy of the track doesn't travel in a straight line. It explodes, then simmers, then crackles, then gets white hot. It's a reflection of how [I'm] choosing to exist in this world." Check out the full tracklist for Transgressor, due August 7 from Quite Scientific, below and pre-order it on iTunes. Stream the single and see Tunde Olaniran's upcoming live dates in Flint and Brooklyn below.
