Troy Kingi Presents ‘Night Lords’ – The Ninth Instalment of Multi-Award-Winning Artist Troy Kingis Aspirational 10|10|10 Series (Ten Albums in Ten Genres in Ten Years).
Troy Kingi is stepping into hip-hop and R&B territory on his new album, Night Lords. For Kingi, the shift into hip hop is both a personal and creative evolution, heavily influenced by his own love of ’90s rap . Kingi says the genre has been on his mind since the beginning of his 10-album journey, and it felt like a natural progression.
The album continues Kingis practice of deep collaboration and documentation of genre, proving his producer skills while highlighting the strength and breadth of Aotearoas contemporary hip-hop and R&B scene. The Night Lords is stacked with heavyweight collaborators including Adam Tukiri, Brandn Shiraz, Diggy Dup, JessB, Lucky Lance, M, Mareko, Melodownz, MOKOMOKAI, Rizvan, Rubi Du, SWIDT, Tipene, Tom Scott, Tyna, and US artist Charlie Bereal.
My biggest accomplishment on the album I feel is how cohesive it all is. You have 14 artists all amazing and different in their right yet it all feels cut from the same cloth. Im super proud of the album and cant wait to share it, says Kingi.
