Today, Portland, Oregon based artist sadeyes drops a new EP titled ‘downpour II’ via Epitaph Records. The prolific emo rapper/producer is on a roll, having just released another EP ‘grim’ and debut album ‘monarch’ earlier this year. Using his creativity as an outlet to muse on love and the universal struggle of mental health, his signature sadboi feels run throughout the 5 track EP. Co-produced with BOYFIFTY, the songs all lead with a distant sounding guitar before transforming into atmospheric lo-fi beats.
sadeyes (Nate Lewis) pushes the envelope as an artist, drawing from alternative, emo rap and hyperpop to sonically represent his truth. Channeling the versatility of the human experience, Lewis’ confessional lyricism, haunting metaphors and lo-fi production embody a vulnerability that’s universally relatable.
