OVRKAST. SHARES NEW CARDO COLLAB EP  KASTGOTWINGS – OUT NOW

Fresh off his run supporting MAVI on his headlining shadowbox tour and an appearance on Sway In The Morning that saw him freestyle with Lupe Fiasco, Oakland rapper and producer Ovrkast. has just shared his new EP KASTGOTWINGS, a seven-track joint tape with fellow production heavyweight Cardo. Marked by smooth, piano-fueled beats and pensive lyricism, KASTGOTWINGS is a sleek fusion of jazz and hip-hop from two of rap's most inspired maestros. The release follows "CUT UP", which was praised by Hypebeast, HipHopDX, Okayplayer, and BrooklynVegan, as well as recent singles "PAYMEAGRIP" and "BIPPERS JOINT".

After first making waves with his 2020 debut solo album Try Again, KASTGOTWINGS serves as the exclamation point on a career-minting run for the Oakland newcomer. He's recently collaborated with the likes of Drake ("Red Button" and "The Shoe Fits"), Earl Sweatshirt ("EL TORO COMBO MEAL"), redveil ("automatic"), and MAVI ("Chiasma" and "Reason"). Known for his work with Drake ("God's Plan"), Kendrick Lamar ("GOD."), and Travis Scott ("goosebumps"), it's also been a massive 2024 for Grammy award-winning super-producer Cardo, who has already laid key tracks for Playboi Carti, ScHoolboy Q, 21 Savage, Lil Yachty, and Brent Faiyaz this year.

Hailed for his jazz-influenced, sample-based production style and meditative bars, Ovrkast. has made a name for himself as one of the new faces of Bay Area hip-hop for his thoughtful lyricism and minimalist sound. Following the aforementioned Try Again, he released six-track project RESET!in 2023, which featured "TBH!", his biggest song to date, and made a standout appearance alongside MAVI on Charlotte rapper MESSIAH!'s "silent heel" this summer. Now, Ovrkast. has teamed up with Cardo for their new collab EP KASTGOTWINGS — further solidifying him as one of the most sought-after tastemakers of his generation.
