Boston-based artists Kmawa and William Wallace teamed up once again, this time for the release of a music video for their single “On the Low”, taken from their joint EP, Detaching.
Hailing from diverse backgrounds and drawing inspiration from a myriad of influences, Kmawa and William Wallace bring a unique blend of talent and perspective to the table. Kmawa, a multi-talented singer, producer, and audio engineer, traces his musical roots back to his upbringing in an Indian family in South Carolina. Immersed in a rich tapestry of R&B sounds from iconic artists like Stevie Wonder and Whitney Houston, Kmawa’s musical journey became a canvas for self-expression and exploration, challenging stereotypes along the way. Meanwhile, William Wallace, an interdisciplinary artist, rapper, and producer, infuses his work with influences ranging from J Dilla to Kanye West. His music is a fusion of soulful sample chops, smooth vocals, and introspective lyricism.
Their collaboration, which began in 2018, blossomed into a creative partnership marked by memorable tracks over the years. Bonding over shared musical influences and a mutual love for hip-hop and R&B, Kmawa and William Wallace blend their talents to create a sound that is uniquely theirs.
