OUT NOW – Listen Here
Coming from the prestigious RnB songster Jeezi The Lantern is the suave, velvety single ‘Costain‘, – a Callimajik produced, soulful track with an incessant groove and undeniable danceability. With sound engineering from the sonic master Blazejev, ‘Costain,’ is a dense sonic soundscape to get lost in, drenched in that summer sunshine sound and feel-good vibe for the season. The predominant inspiration for ‘Costain,’ came from a ‘hustler’ who influenced Jeezi The Lantern profoundly; the writing process was set in motion with Jeezi exploring different melodies and experimenting with rhythms to then meticulously layer his carefully selected timbres into a rich tapestry which we can here on the final version of ‘Costain.’ Following countless late nights of contemplation, personal anecdotes, and moments of pure inspiration, the lyrics for ‘Costain,’ finally evolved to perfectly fit the song, drawing on Jeezi The Lantern’s personal experiences particularly from his birthplace, Lagos. Bringing all these elements together, ‘Costain,’ is a track which not only showcases Jeezi’s artistic growth but also connects with ‘the universal human experience,’ – certainly not one to miss out on.
