Following up 2014's Holy Oxygen EP, South African rapper Okmalumkoolkat is back with Holy Oxygen II (due March 24). Building on a lot of the sounds he featured in the first EP, the Durban rapper called once more on LuckyMe's Cid Rim and The Clonious, the producers behind the first installment of Holy Oxygen, to hop on production duties. On "Straight To The Top" the trio channels the gqom of his hometown into swirling, dizzying layers of percussion and soaring melodies that pulse through the track. If "Straight To The Top" is any indicator, we're in for an EP packed with uplifting bangers.
