The song “Heartless” by Czech producer Nejvex and Australian alternative hip hop artist KIDMAN sits at the intersection of melodic bass and rap.

If you ever felt the lines between these distinct genres were getting too blurry, this emotional electro-pop song proves that the blur is actually where the best music is happening.

“Heartless” captures the tail end of a relationship, with KIDMAN’s lyrics revealing toxic tendencies in their partner. I find the vocals and the overall production quite polished–this song is just too smooth.

“Heartless” is out on SLANDER‘s imprint Heaven Sent. Listen and connect with Nejvex and KIDMAN on IG.
