KD Young Cocky first hit my radar in late 2013 with a string of solid releases here and there, but 2014 is when he really made an impact with me. Strong hooks and focused songwriting — not to mention stellar beats courtesy of his sole producer, D. Brooks Exclusive. These two have figured out a special groove, and have been making undeniable music since they started flooding the market a few months back. Thoughtful street music. Substance with tales of hardship and being young and coming up in the game. A nice change of pace — set to hard beats and some autotune.
Smoking Right Now: Worst Enemy serves as the precursor to his official debut project, tentatively titled Smoking Right Now, which is due out later this year. This is a true warm-up record, filled with select songs that have dropped already this year, and some never before heard heaters. Something to hold his fans over — but don’t get it twisted, this isn’t just a package of throwaways. There’s a clear and concise goal here: to be heard and to be heard in a major way. And you should give it a listen now. It comes as highly recommended.
