Khakikid is another 19-year old, a rapper from Dublin.
Fynch is the Burner Records artist who is known for sporting an Ireland jersey and dropping truths in his rhymes.
All feature on the duo’s newest EP Good Luck, a summery collection of six tracks, with the SZA, Doja Cat-esque ‘Summer Lovin’ with Kehli, the title song features a laidback Mac Miller-esque rhythm that suits Fynch and an unnamed vocalist, ‘Alcoholics’ with Khakikid has an Anderson .Paak/Kaytranada feel while 49th & Main lean into the more singer-songwriter pop vibe they have shown recently on ‘Good Life’ and ‘I Want You’.
There’s also a house track called ‘Takeaway Pints’ on it fair play.
