A matter of months after hinting at a shift away from country music on Logan Paul's Impaulsive Podcast, Kane Brown has taken to Instagram to tease a full-blown EDM-leaning EP.
Via his Instagram Stories, Brown has mused, “Weird thought of doing an edm ep”, before adding that his recently shared track, ‘Unspoken’, “should be released this week”.
While this will undoubtedly upset some of the more traditionalist country listeners, this move makes sense for Brown. He has established himself as one of the most forward-thinking artists in Nashville, joining forces with an array of trailblazers from outside the genre, such as Khalid, Swae Lee, Marshmello and John Legend.
Brown secured a smash hit in 2024 with his EDM earworm, ‘Miles On It’, which marked his second collaboration with Marshmello, following the much-loved ‘One Thing Right’.
It looks like ‘Unspoken’ might be dropping this Friday (October 3rd), marking the Georgia native's first release since the infectious, uptempo ‘2 Pair’, which arrived in June.
It ensures the momentum remains high behind Brown, following his widely acclaimed fourth studio album, The High Road, at the start of the year, which featured stand-outs such as ‘Fiddle in the Band’, ‘Rescue’, ‘Body Talk’, ‘Things We Quit’ and more.
We don't think Kane Brown will ever entirely depart country music, with the ‘Famous Friends’ hitmaker underlining throughout his career just how deeply he loves the genre.
However, we could foresee the ‘Haunted’ crooner dropping some projects that incorporate EDM and Hip Hop in the coming months. Given how seamlessly Brown has done this in the past, we reckon we've got good reason to look forward to this next era.
