Melbourne newcomer Brandon Støne has the envious ability to shift between sounds. Following the success of R&B-infused hip hop hit Right Kinda Wrong, the high schooler has released his second single, the gritty hard-hitting rap track Picasso. Støne flaunts his rap skills and delivers slick rhymes with confidence and intensity. He switches his flow constantly throughout the trap-like beat, spitting bars about confidence and his determination to rise above the rest. Zhane White jumps on the second verse, flexing his charismatic flow and toungue-in-cheek lyrics. Together the young emcees have created a musical work of art, with the explosive Picasso cementing their status as the rising stars of Burn City.
For an independent artist, Flye has an impressive repertoire of songs under his belt. With every new release, the New South Wales rapper continues to perfect his sound.

His distinct style of rapping is perfect for the mellow pace of the track. The lyrics ooze confidence and the catchy hook echoes Flye’s ability to rule to the rap game. His mixtape is out soon.
