I didn’t know I was missing this in my life, but I’m sure glad it’s here now. You may best recognize Lakeith Stanfield the actor, who’s been killing it on Donald Glover’s FX show Atlanta and Jordan Peele’s Get Out, but now he’s introducing the world to his music persona, HTIEKAL.
The track and its music video came packaged with Stanfield’s featured interview on GQ, in which he details this new venture as a musical artist and what people can expect from his forthcoming album, Self Control. He even teased the possibility of there being a collab with his Atlanta boss, better known on the music side of things as Childish Gambino.
When you hear “Fast Life” and its sound that’s reminiscent of early Kid Cudi, I can only imagine that this would be one hell of a dope partnership. Check out the video above.
