Kachinga has taken an untraveled route in which he breaks through the mold and spreads the wonderful gems of wisdom that he has uncovered over the years. This Canadian artist has seamlessly blended incredible lyrics with some callous beats. The end result is one of the best debut albums this year. “Sky Falling” is the first album from Kachinga after three years in the making, first as part of Skool City collective and as part of the collaboration between Lava Cru and Three Entertainment Group.
Loss results in grieve but the lessons that abound from such experiences transcend the transitory state. This appears to be the centralizing theme throughout the album, there’s no doubt that Kachinga learned a great deal about loss and he’s willing to spread the knowledge.
This master blend constitutes R&B, Hip-Hop, and Indie. This is evident from what we’ve heard from Kachinga in the last two EPs, Bloody Nose and Raining.
A heavy bass line coupled by orchestral synths on one of the highlights, “BC”, which is the first of the 23 tracks on the album will prove to be worth listening. The symphonic synths deliver a smoldering energy that flows to and through the listener inducing a hypnotic state that’s stupendous. The track speaks of a man that has nurtured his devoutness for the ideal woman of his desires despite the relationship hurdles that accompany the affair.
Track number 2, “Before”, is a master blend of fascinating and stifling instrumentals that create a euphoric feeling coupled with the vocals from Erika French. The third track, “Boujwazee”, lyrically addresses the inner concerns that emanate from the influences of the environment on interpersonal relationships.
The other track that caught my attention is “Fluent,” the alt-rock/rap flavor that’s infused in it is just irresistible as it flows on the twanging bassline.
The fifth track provoked the inner awareness on the importance of self-reliance when it comes to relationship management. Kachinga speaks of how each individual ought to realize that they are their own person despite the preconceived notion of ownership contracts.
“Beamer” is one of the tracks with a lofty message that we’ve heard a time and again. Randy and Kachinga team-up to deliver the nearly rhetoric idea that material possessions don’t bring fulfillment in themselves. He also highlights how he transcended from zero to hero in his personal life, yet he was able to conceive the truth of the fact that material possessions don’t fulfill.
Track number 10,”Wedding Dress” is one of my picks, the pastel spark of the sonic character in the synths delivers a sophisticated flow. The dazzling piano does its best to harmonize the varying vocals as it merges into the pulsating hip-hop beat.
The thirteenth track starts with a profound intro that pinpoints the realities of uncovering the true friends during times of distress. The tough and rough track will grab your attention if you have a clue about the realities of the grind.
The last track in this album, “Wonderland” will definitely have you cherish the essence of merging smooth R&B and chic hip-hop in an elusive rhythm. The esthetic nuance provided by the drifting quality of the vocals is done masterfully to have all your musical needs met head-on.
The tantalizing melodies in this album are just stupendous and generally speaking the album is just somewhere at the top of the charts. Considering the fact that Kahinga is Canadian and not from the West or East Coast, furthermore, it’s evident that this guy has profound musical abilities that we’re just noticing with his first album and two EPs. Kachinga proves his astute ability in blending the R&B tones with cumbersome hip-hop cadences.
Kachinga takes the beat on the fifteenth track and runs with it as he entraps the listener in his lyrical mastery in the expression of the many mistakes that he made, yet he attributes the person he is to the issues that he had to deal with in his come-up. All this is coming from a place of courage and bravery and that’s the kind of vibe that most of us need. This is the proper dosage for the real grinders who can fathom the bigger picture.
The alluring traps of money and fame get a major blow from the seventeenth track, “Nothing”, as Kachinga reminds his listeners not to fall for the deceit but instead to focus on their ideal definition of true happiness and to pursue that till they have reached fulfillment.

The internal feeling that’s created by the twenty-second track “Donuts”, is one of recovery and after a prolonged period of hustle and bustle, it leads to the awareness that taking care of one’s family and self is one of the greatest wealth sources that any human being can fathom in their dealings with the world. Kachinga is on the verge of greatness as his first LP has proved, he’s able to twist the conscious lyricism to spread enlightenment in a masterful way that serves the purpose to both entertain and enlighten.
