‘Out the Mud’ is a rather three-dimensional, liquid piece. Built on ever-modulating gloomy textures, the track feels intense and nuanced, almost classy in its sonic outlook. A minimal R&B beat is layered under evocative soundscapes and vibrant harmonic matter, the perfect environment for Child of SP’s cathartic and contemporary vocals, incredibly luscious and vibrant.
Hailing from São Paulo, the talented lyricist and musician is truly authentic and peculiar in his artistry. Walking between hip-hop, electronica and R&B, Child of SP crafts a dark jewel, melancholic and nostalgic, but never overbearing. Drenched in autotune and synthetic goo, the single makes its way towards the listener’s hearts – aided by its philosophical and introspective lyricism.
‘Out the Mud’ also features a stunning music video, a popping work of visual art exploring “3D-rendered animated music video in stylised photorealism”. Speaking about the inspiration behind his songwriting, Child of SP explains: “Do you feel entirely in charge of your life? How far have you come from where you started?”
