Midweek vibes for ya.
A.CHAL’s increasingly put his name on people’s radars over the past couple of years. And with a single studio album release, it feels like the upcoming Peruvian artist has been around us for a while, despite the questions we may have. 2016’s Welcome to GAZI gave us insight into Alejandro’s world of introspection - namely his reflections on greed and addiction, and their sameness; the music feels like a journey. His thoughts return on “Matrix”, the latest single from his upcoming project, On Gaz. Yeah, “red and blue pill, black shades” are obvious allusions to the well-known movie, but one can only speculate as to what shape that takes in his personal life - he raps about lying low (shades are a disguise of choice), but is he talking getting faded while swerving those salty vibes? The “Matrix” does bump and take you away though, feeling like an up and down drugged out experience - trancy. On Gaz is set to drop on June 2nd, and a year removed from Welcome to GAZI, I’m hoping for more views (no Drake) into the mysterious life of Alejandro Chal. Cosigns from A$AP Rocky, OVO Radio, and Zane Lowe were only the beginning for A.CHAL, so I’m anxiously waiting for what goodness he brings to the table with his release. Get a jump start with “Matrix” below.
