The second single from South African emcee/producer EMAMKAY's forthcoming album 'Love Is Energy', 'Sense' is a soulful, jazz-tinged slice of conscious hip hop, issued on Kid Fonque's STY TRU BTS label.

With woozy, J Dilla inspired beats, lush layered vocals and warm piano chords, ‘Sense’ features performances from EMAMKAY's band, the Sounds Like U Quintet: Joel Eze on bass, Jeffery Mahachi on drums, Michael Nkuna on trumpet and Bokang Ramatlapeng on vocals, with emcee and producer EMAMKAY also providing piano and keyboards.

Due in 2023, 'Love Is Energy' is the third studio album from South African artist EMAMKAY. Raised and based between Soweto (Johannesburg) and Pretoria, EMAMKAY's distinctive lo-fi hip hop sound lays bare the artist's influences, which range from J-Dilla, Flying Lotus and D' Angelo to Smokey Robinson and John Coltrane.
