Vacatixn - Lessonlearned. (Single)
He's back with a vibe for all. Vacatixn brings us a timeless song using the essence of 90’s Rap as its vehicle to combine Jazz, Hip-Hop, and R&B.
The song exudes the concept of certain lessons in rap that Vacatixn feels are important aspects and rules to abide by within the art of rap and performance. Vacatixn works thoroughly to project these ideas through its presentation, rapping in a way that every word can be heard, felt, and comprehended; all while gliding on a smooth 90s boom-bap vibe from the instrumentation reminiscent of J Dilla, Common, and De La Soul. The chorus, sung by Vacatixn himself creates a melodic glue that unites the track as a whole, its simple but catchy hook succeeds in defining the concept and narrative of the track… “lesson learned” whilst introducing the vibes of Musiq Soulchild and Dwele in its melody.
Boastful lyrics and silky vocals are finally joined by an unparalleled saxophone solo played by two-time Grammy winner Fabian Hernandez. This track exists as a true gem for jazz rap fans. Consistency has fuelled Vacatixn to achieve many milestones, from being added to Jazz UK/Jazz Rap in 2021 to Sofar Sounds and National Radio play. He continues to showcase his catalogue with promise and direction.
