“Cryptocurrency” – Kuami Eugene

“Cryptocurrency” by Kuami Eugene is the topical dance-pop song of your dreams. Overflowing with memorable motifs, infectious rhythms, and vivacious vocals, it turns the classic ‘gold-digger’ trope on its head in a clever and charming way. Kuami Eugene saw the rise in popularity of crypto and followed suit, infusing this endlessly catchy song with a relevant, exciting, and ultimately fun atmosphere.

Two synths form the intro, one plinking out a syncopated rhythm, and the other performing a buzzing melody. Within a few seconds, the vocals come pouring in. The singer’s bright, powerful voice pierces through the mix, reaching for impressively high notes and rolling with the groovy, syllabic melody. “We on a new level now,” he repeats, forming the song’s unforgettable hook. Another vocalist takes on the second verse, this time with a deeper, warmer tone. Something about tracks with two singers (and two contrasting timbres) makes them all the more lively. The more texture you can fit into a song, the more intriguing it is.

As the song continues, the hook gains huge swaths of harmonies, thus, it becomes even more full and climactic. By the last drum hit, you’re definitely left dancing—and if you’re not, you want to be. This song is a masterclass in how to make music groovy and lyrically engaging all at the same time. If this sounds like your cup of tea, give Kuami Eugene a follow and a stream on your choice of social media platform or streaming service! You’ll become obsessed in no time.
