San Diego-based artist Kakuyon returns to the spotlight with the release of his latest single and video for “Evergreen, Maroon Too.” After taking a slight hiatus to focus on other projects, the burgeoning rapper, singer, and producer returns with a cinematic new visual directed by Juan Madrid that adds background to the question, “where has Kakuyon been?” Opened by incredible panoramic shots that capture Kakuyon in several different landscapes, the multi-hyphenate artist sings directly to the camera with true soul, feeling, and a melodic coating that propels the single into the realm of alternative R&B. Accompanied by a backdrop of delicate synths, and a steady bassline, Kakuyon bears his soul in capturing the difficulty in reading a person’s true intentions that are simultaneously represented in the genre-less home where the song resides. “Evergreen, Maroon Too” marks Kakuyon’s first release since his 2018 single, “Rich” and by all signs is proving he is back and has something up his sleeve.
