Nigerian alté and trap creator Straffitti teams up with rising vocal artist OctobersRich on the catchy, boundary- pushing tune “WINDOW.”
This energetic song comes at a time when fans of modern hip-hop and alté are yearning for cross-genre records that combine chilled nighttime vibes with cutting-edge street savvy. In the underground scene, Straffitti has been building a quiet cult following with his distinct voice modulation and creative vision. October Rich’s presence makes for an instant and organic audio collaboration that explores lofty viewpoints, personal space, and the experience of adjusting to abrupt lifestyle changes from afar.
Behind the boards, the sound architect lays down a mid-tempo soundscape with a dark vibe, underpinned by banging 808 kick drums, sharp hi-hat rhythms, and evocative synth loops. There’s a deep rolling bassline that slides under the groove and leaves plenty of breathing space throughout the mix.
Charismatic phrasing and beautiful melodic cadences are the weapons with which Rich and Straffitti conquer the microphone.
