Kestine releases his debut EP Reflection. The EP, engineered by Outsider Yp, elaborates on the concept of appreciating the moment. Throughout the project Kestine reflects on where his priorities are laid at this current stage in his life. He ponders on the potential glory of being the best Irish and international act as well as appreciating these pivotal moments he has with his aging father and mother. Kestine touches upon the BLM movement and black people in general in the track titled U.N.I.T.Y boldly stating "honestly some of our people are hypocrites, we scream Black Lives Matter yet do we as black people cherish other black people." Kestine delves further into some of his deepest thoughts through the character of Melanie. Melanie being the representation of women in Kestine's life and their concerns about men and the struggles that they must face on a day to day. Kestine rounds off the project with uncertainty, the pressure to be a worthy man for his other half and being financially stable to take care of her and his family. He worries about his anxiety and the "constant feeling of [needing] to make them proud". 

Sonically, Reflection, borrows from Michael Jackson, Kendrick Lamar, and early Kanye West.
Having grown up as a member of the choir, Kestine always leans towards natural instrumentals and soulful melodies. This is in sharp display through his delivery and beat selection, creating an atmosphere that marries the soulful instrumentals with futuristic kicks and 808's melting together with the darker lyrical themes of the EP to create a unique sound.

She Bad

Chorus:
Rumble in the Jungle, in the dark i stumble, even though i stumble ,i'm still King of that Jungle.
Bow down, bow down... (ya) x4
Rumble in the Jungle, in the dark i stumble, even though i stumble ,i'm still King of that Jungle.
Mama ,mama  told me baby your the king, step into the ring and let the angels sing.

Verse:
Testing, step to this.......

Roll with me

Till our final days, and the day is done.
And i will always love you my baby.

Roll with me.

Roll With Me

Kestine encompasses the essence of Irish HipHop, daring to challenge the meccas of modern music in America and the UK. His passion, selection of flows, and most importantly his lyrics help to illustrate how Ireland is indeed changing for the better and becoming more inclusive. No longer can we simply define what it means to be Irish as the definition of an Irish man is an ever changing and evolving title that will continue to grow and move forward alongside Ireland as a nation.
