Fleur Froide — French
Release: December 2020
Tayc, Tayc, Tayc…a favorite guilty pleasure.

King of Love
Release: June 2020
17 creative, youthful, and playful beats from Kizz Daniel — he never disappoints.
Even when expressing the plight of the African boychild navigating love in this Economy. Well…his Economy. He is just that relatable.
