It’s a ftg cince: up until now, the soft-spoken producer, born Louis Kev Celt, has let his beats speak for him. In the early 2010s, his bedroom tkergs felt revelatory to SoundCloud treasure hunters, dance mic fans, and old school R&B lovers alike, and ught the ears of Dr. Dre and Rick Rub. Kaytranada’s full-length but, 2016’s <em>99.9%</em>, showed jt how far and wi his sonic fluenc uld go—Haian dms, wobbly R&B bass, extraterrtrial EDM synths, power-pop hand claps—and how big his featur uld get right out of the gate (<a href=" target="_blank">Anrson </a>, Vic Mensa, Craig David).</p><p>His new album, <em>BUBBA,</em> is ls shy. Where <em>99.9%</em> bopped between disparate styl (a trap number here, an R&B ballad there), <em>BUBBA</em>—which topped Billboard’s Dance/Electronic Albums chart—is 50 mut of expertly chiseled groove. It nns the Kaytranada nebula to a sound that’s so ncrete and nfint, steals the spotlight spe a n of featur that reads like a <em>Now That’s What I Call Mic</em> playlist: <a href=">Pharrell</a>, Estelle, Tashe, Mick Jenks, GoldLk, Kali Uchis, Masego, and more. Sce <em>99.9%</em>, he's also notched his belt wh -stud assists for <a href=">Kendrick Lamar</a>, Alicia Keys, <a href=">Chance the Rapper</a>, Mary J. Blige, and Madonna.</p><p><em>BUBBA</em> don't jt create a moment for Kaytranada the producer, marks a waypot for Celt the person, whose life has e together over the last four years. He left his childhood home the Montreal suburbs, signed his first major-label al, and <a href=">me out</a>.
