Like it or not, we are in the home stretch for 2024. So don’t be too surprised when you start hearing everyone talk about their lofty New Year’s resolutions in the coming weeks. But if you yourself need some extra solidarity to help turn a new leaf and hit the ground running in 2025, we’ve got just the thing for you.
We’re talking about Austin’s Muzeke – the La Fayette-born-and-boiled singer-songwriter (and former Uncommon People frontman) that’s full of R&B, soul, rap, and alternative flavors. Beginning on a couple of collaborations with MILD Inconveniencé and continuing with another two pairs of solo tracks across last year and 2024, Muzeke’s mashup of melodic vocal lines and confessional lyrics always makes for a smooth (albeit, often poignant) listen.
So, while Muzeke will most likely spend part of this Thanksgiving week showing his usual gratitude to music as an expressive platform (duh; it’s right there in the moniker), we may bear witness to a slightly altered, more matured person on Muzeke’s debut EP next Spring. How do we know? Well, last Friday Muzeke shared his second single of the year (and the lead off the EP), “New Man”. Chronicling a recent big shift and closing a chapter of past romances, “New Man” also marks the introduction of a more determined individual whose unafraid to get a little aggressive. Not to mention, this Caribbean-inspired instant cuffing season classic might be the hottest ménage à trois of riddim, sensual electric guitar, and vocal seduction this side of the holiday season.
