LA-based artist DeLorean Black is on the biggest ride of his life, as he returns with his sophomore single ‘Salt Xxxaddy’. Introducing us to his sound earlier this year, DeLorean made his musical debut with the release of his single ‘It Girl’. Showcasing a new side to his artistic style, ‘Salt Xxxaddy’ moves away from his previous rock-based sound, to deliver a more R&B-led instrumentation.
Bringing us into a captivating sonic world filled with a dazzling blend of R&B, hip hop and synth-based rhythms, DeLorean draws inspiration from a melting pot of genres to create his own unique and idiosyncratic sound. With a mellow and intoxicating energy, the lo-fi, sultry and slightly darker energy of the song draws you into its enchanting and dynamic sonic world. Alongside this are DeLorean’s resonant and honeyed vocals that lightly dance across the vibrant melodies.
Delving further into the meaning of the song, DeLorean explains the track as: “Begin[ning] with a simulation hopper traveling to an alternate universe that feels like the 1980s. In the simulation the traveler plays a sugar daddy who has gone salty because his girl has become like milk left out in the summer sun…spoiled”.
With the promise of more to come, DeLorean is rapidly making a name for himself within the music scene; and captivating audiences with his addictive and multi-faceted artistry.
