Sean Delaney is cultivating a movement, and on his latest single, “Took A Ride,” Delaney welcomes you into the world of American Flòwk, a signature mix of raw hip-hop grit and folk-informed storytelling. With Rush Entertainment in his corner and under the guidance of Melissa McKinney, Delaney has no qualms about venturing outside of the mould and creating realness that resonates.
Delaney demonstrates his songwriting acumen as he describes vivid memories, recovery, and the basic pleasure of living. Every verse feels heavy, but there’s also an insouciance in the storytelling that has made the song at once pensive and buoyant.
The brazen grit of hip hop easily wraps itself around the earnest lyricism of folk, and it’s a song that feels personally tailored without ever feeling exclusionary, speaking to everyone who has ever needed reminding of the fact that sometimes, the road itself can be where you heal and find inspiration and break free.
With this track, Sean Delaney shows us that music is a journey, a philosophy, and a glimpse of the pure moment in everything. For fans seeking that in modern hip-hop, “Took A Ride” is a destination worth traveling to.
