CONTROL

CONTROL is a single from the collaborative album Everything Is Fake by ILOVEMAKONNEN x Yellow Trash Can. It pairs Atlanta rapper and singer ILOVEMAKONNEN, known for the 2014 Drake collaboration Tuesday, with the Yellow Trash Can project led by Jason Navarrete.

The track sits in a clean alt-rock and alt-rap lane, the sound of a mainstream-tested artist pivoting toward left-field, guitar-leaning territory. It reached The Next Radio as a direct submission rather than through the usual plugger channel, a sign of how the station is opening its door to new corners of independent music.
