Kal Banx & Isaiah Rashad Connect & Kickback On Mellow “Sunstory”

by

If you don’t know who Kal Banx is, you may want to do your homework on the TDE (Top Dawg Entertainment) producer. He’s been behind some of the best singles and projects over the last several years. 2024 has especially been a strong year for the steady veteran, though. Banx has his prints all over Doechii’s excellent breakout mixtape Alligator Bites Never Heal. ScHoolboy Q got some assistance from him on BLUE LIPS. But don’t think he’s only favoring his label mates. Banx produced Denzel Curry’s “Walkin,” several Baby Keem tracks from DIE FOR MY B****, as well a few from Dreamville’s Revenge Of The Dreamers III.

However, the hitmaker has spent most of his time in the industry lending a hand to other MCs. But it seems like Kal Banx is getting ready to drop his first solo project because he’s back with “Sunstory.” This record comes just a few weeks after the release of “HOP OUT CHO FEELINS” with Smino and Buddy. If you have heard that, it’s a pretty lowkey trunk-knocker with crisp bass and melodic performances. The same goes for “Sunstory,” which features the most chill MC on the TDE label, Isaiah Rashad. These tracks are very cohesive sonically, the cover artworks are almost identical, which means an album has to be on the horizon… right?

“Sunstory” – Kal Banx & Isaiah Rashad

Quotable Lyrics:

Yeah, I’m done dreamin’ now
I’m done sipping out the cup
Yeah, I’m a healthy kid, I’m done givin’ out the f***s, yeah
Yeah, I quit giving up, ’cause God good enough to trust, yeah
I’m on some other s***, I got my niеces in the truck, yeah, ha
I’m on somе family s***, we gotta always keep in touch

Kal Banx Releases Smooth “HOP OUT CHO FEELINGS” With Smino & Buddy

by

Kal Banx is a producer from Dallas, Texas. He first made his name by producing tracks on Revenge Of The Dreamers III, before moving on to Isaiah Rashad, SiR, and Smino. He officially became part of Top Dawg Entertainment’s team of in-house producers in 2021. His latest track features Buddy and the aforementioned Smino, who both skate over a smooth beat with a soul sample in the background. Smino’s verse sounds particularly effortless, sounding similar to Krayzie Bone in terms of how he flows on the track. It also features some of Smino’s trademark singing passages. Everything comes together to create a track that would not sound out of place on one of his albums.

“HOP OUT CHO FEELINGS” is the latest appearance for Smino. Earlier this year, he released the singles “Polynesian,” “Nokia,” and “mister misfit but ain’t missed a fit in months.” He claimed in January that he had three albums ready to be released in 2024. However, none of those albums have seen a release yet. His previous album, Luv 4 Rent, was released in October 2022. At the end of 2023, he joined Noname and Saba to premiere a new song by their Ghetto Sage supergroup during Noname’s Tiny Desk Concert. Buddy released his latest album, Don’t Forget To Breathe, this past March. His album also featured Smino, marking their first release together in years. They both appeared on the Revenge Of The Dreamers III‘s track “1993.” As for Kal Banx, the next time fans will probably hear production from him on an album is when Isaiah Rashad’s next release comes. Rashad has yet to announce a release date, but confirmed its existence earlier this year. Stream the new song and watch the music video from Banx, Buddy, and Smino below.
