A3C Alumni: K Camp Album Review

Written by Avery ‘MsArtistry’ Watson | Sep 9

Released (September 4), Only Way Is Up by Atlanta Hip Hop artist K Camp, is a collection 16 tracks representing concepts of his musical journey thus far.  After his breakthrough singles ‘Money Baby’ featuring Kwony Cash and ‘Cut Her Off’ featuring. 2 Chainz, K Camp managed to lay down credible and recognizable catchy hooks such as Lil Bit. The Atlanta rapper is in his own lane that bolsters his unique sound making it contagious for listeners.

Straight out the gate, tracks such as, Comfortable, and ‘Change’ featuring Jeremiah (Produced by Nash Beats) highlights the artist's ability to mix a laid-back R&B sounds with Rap. It’s so effective and graceful; it seems to be his blueprint for targeting the new listener, showcasing his ability to toggle between two genres. Produced by Big Fruit and Cali The Producer, Only Way Is Up  track ‘Til I Die,’ featuring T.I., gives us that banger; solidifying the authentic Atlanta vibe. You have Yo Gotti, featured on ‘Who Am I’ coming in the middle of the song with a distinctive verse.  Bun B features on, ‘B$tches N That Coupe,’ and Fetty Wap featured on ‘1Hunnid” (his fellow 2015 XXL Freshman Classmate). Perhaps, the best feature is with Snoop Dogg, ‘Rollin,’ the remix of the old classic ‘Gin and Juice. ‘Yellow Brick Road’ is a straight melodic sound without a feature and is arguably a favorite track. 

The Only Way Is Up is a good follow up installment from his previous mixtapes as a newcomer on the Interscope records label. This body of work showcases his artistic sensibilities for commercial success. K Camp is a vocalist who can spit while creating hit after hit. The Only Way Is Up an album worth the DOWNLOAD.
