HOW I FEEL
Big 2022 sees YNG KLN return with the visuals of the first single HOW I FEEL off “B4 The SADNESS :a DRUGS experiment” a prequel to his heavily teased EP SAD BOY: SEND HELP. How I Feel is an emo Drill (self-coined genre) song which takes a very expressive and honest approach to the demons that YNG KLN had been dealing with and the various forms which these drugs affect our societies and experiences where heʼs dealt with escapism starting with “I just popped a pill”. Armed with a drill beat, a catchy expressive hook, a story line of a previous run in with 12 and a sneak peek into the life of a young emo rapper he delivers a catchy street anthem.
