The first time we covered Louisiana-born, Texas-based singer Dre Kiken it was a song called "Always," and the comparison to The Weeknd was hard to avoid. But as The Weeknd continues his transition into full-blown superstar with immediate, pop-leaning songs like "Starboy" and "False Alarm," Dre Kiken pulls things toward the opposite end of the spectrum.
The Trwubblenaut-produced "Pills" is dim and heavy from the beginning, but it morphs into a hypnotizing, slow motion dream that you could drown in. Add this to your middle-of-the-night playlist, and keep an ear out for young Dre Kiken.
