artistnameleon’s latest single tells us to both challenge our perception of genre and open up to our emotions

artistnameleon dropped his latest single “Let Me Know” to encourage everyone to open up. But that’s not all: the ATL-based up-and-comer wants to challenge our perceptions of genre. “Let Me Know,” produced by Atlanta native Zillasuper and Poland-based Guavo, could reasonably fit into four or five genres. However, artistnameleon wants nothing to do with labels, making music strictly through emotion rather than our preconceived notions of genre.

“Let Me Know” is not quite rap, not quite R&B, and not quite pop. artistnameleon has previously been referred to as a chillwave rapper, but his latest works – like 2019’s full-length Matter of Time – showcase a talent for centralizing melody with rap, all at once. “Let Me Know” further accentuates this point, letting us know where artistnameleon plans to go from here. According to this latest single, artistnameleon is ready to “Show you a few things / You ain’t never seen before”.
