With the end of the unprecedented lockdowns and inspired by the underground, alternative and lofi hip hop sounds of MF DOOM and Madlib, Chentda and Rotaris rap over a dark, but triumphant beat about being re-energised, having a renewed sense of purpose and looking forward to the future, now that most things have opened up.

'Lockdown Exit' is the first and only single from the 'Lockdown Tape' EP

Lockdown Tape

Lockdown Exit (feat. Rotaris)

'Lockdown Tape' is an underground, alternative lofi hip hop EP inspired by the experiences of going through the 2020-21 lockdowns and consists of 5 tracks. Like a lot of people who picked old hobbies back up again during this time, Chentda got back into making music and set out to create a piece of work that would act as a memento of the time. With most of the music being done in the end of 2021, it was then polished up and completed in 2022.

This is most definitely a contemplative type of hip hop project, best enjoyed during the late hours with a nice cup of tea/coffee or glass of wine. Enjoy!
