ONCUE PERFECTLY TRAGICALLY FLAWED FULL

Music legend Just Blaze and the two have since proved a masterful match indeed.Īs a white rapper who wears leather jackets and gels his hair, you could be quick to pigeon-hole OnCue as the next G-Eazy, but OnCue's sound is both more flexible and much more cerebral than that. His track record shows a history of mining his personal struggles with music, rather than glamorizing his come-up in a flurry of hot girls and liquor.ĭon't get me wrong, there's plenty of that too, but unlike many other young artists OnCue, doesn't need to make his career off unwarranted, or premature, flexing.

ONCUE PERFECTLY TRAGICALLY FLAWED FULL

Rent Money the perfect sonic summation of that ethos, but with OnCue's new EP P ERFECTLY, TRAGICALLY, FLAWEDdropping this month, we're about to see the full scope of what he's capable of.

I heard you like this track 'Rent Money' more than you like your first release off the album, so I'm curious, why wasn't it not the first single of the album? We sat down with student and master, OnCue and Just Blaze, to talk the perils of producer/artist relationships, #Angry young man oncue full Just Blaze: Thank you, that's the question of the album. When you're not in a major label system often you'll unload too quickly with the first single and every song after that is like 'yeah that's cool but I liked the first single.' OnCue: Well 'Rent Money' was made outside the whole project and we were like we've got to keep it for Perfectly, Tragically, Flawed. Just Blaze: Sometimes you know what you want the singles to be, what you want the artwork to be and a song comes along that you didn't expect and you have to start rethinking the plan. It was clear with 'Rent Money' that this was the hit, but you don't always want to shoot your best clip first. I mean I'm in a transition in my career since I sing right, I have a lot of parts of me if you will. So '3am', which is a single I put out last year, was more of an RnB, whereas 'Cry Wolf' really sounds like the old me so it was always going to go down well with my core fanbase.

'Rent Money' though, is totally the new me.

Oncue perfectly tragically flawed
