With his new single “Kitsune,” Moulod opens the door for us to join in on the experience of some of his most soul-packed yet experimental tracks. A song written and produced in a wave of creative meditation, the track symbolizes refusing to accept vapid art/connections as authentic or lasting. “Kitsune” is a profoundly personal exploration of authenticity, set to the irresistible beats of Afrobeats.
“Kitsune” merges time-honored Afrobeats jams with a modern twist, cultivating an atmosphere that’s both grounded and futuristic. The percussion is restless and throbbing, and over that, waves of melody drift in and out like clouds in the mind. It’s Afrobeats with a twist, recognizable enough to make your body sway and wild enough to bring you barreling back for deeper listens.
Ultimately, the song is all about self-awareness and taking a stand. Moulod has spent a lifetime of hard work to achieve his current position, and he reminds those who gawk at his lifestyle that his veneer has been earned. He doesn’t try to mask this reality but rather make art out of it, creating a sound that appeals to the dance floor and your inner ear.
It’s in this delicate balance between movement and meaning that Moulod’s artistry flourishes. There’s a classicism, even timelessness, to the track, but also a sense of evolution, as if someone is carving out their own lane in a genre known for innovation and cross-cultural fusion.
“Kitsune” is a statement that suggests that Moulod isn’t in it for the ephemeral trends or transient applause. He’s creating music that reflects his own truth and challenges you to consider your own. With every pulse, he reminds you that Afrobeats is also narrative, identity, and soul. In “Kitsune,” Moulod affirms that the strongest music is the best music, as it makes us ponder, feel, and remember. This single is proof that the lasting impact of sincerity extends beyond the sharpest blade.
