Ryeisha Berrain is a dancer and rapper from Baltimore whose music contains elements of that city’s signature club sound mixed with tons of other modern party rap sounds, from Diplo’s cultural re-appropriation to 808 revivalism to chopping and screwing to chiptune… She initially found a wider audience through a meeting with MIA and Diplo arranged by Blaqstarr. This is good club music but that’s not enough to include it. I hope she goes ahead and studies Childcare like she apparently used to want to…
