Emerging onto the music scene with an undeniable genre-bending sound, Brooklyn’s fast rising alt-R&B star Kelz2Busy is back with a dynamic new 3-pack release, 3 Typa Nights, available to stream now on all platforms now via Human ReSources/The Orchard.

Kelz2Busy’s musicianship takes center stage on 3 Typa Nights, highlighting his versatility as a songwriter and performer across three distinct new tracks demonstrating why he’s already earned recognition as an 2023 "Artist to Watch" by Apple Music, along with co-signs from industry luminaries Ice Spice, Pharrell, Drake, Jack Harlow, Jorja Smith, Brent Faiyaz, and Timbaland.

The self-penned project features focus single "lost and found” – a fusion of dancehall rhythms and his Jamaican heritage – that sets the scene for a vivid narrative of his nights out, offering an authentic glimpse into his life beyond the recording studio. The journey continues with the bass-heavy, atmospheric ballad "empty night$", leading listeners through an introspective and reflective sonic experience. The 3-pack culminates with the entrancing

"right now", leaving audiences captivated by his unique blend of sound and style. Each track is accompanied by a visually compelling lyric video directed by Javi (@jayyybills).

Discussing the inspiration behind the project’s focus single, Kelz2Busy shares, “‘lost and found’ is an ode to my Jamaican roots with my own twist on dancehall. I wanted to give a detailed description on how my nights out have been lately and give more context on what I’m doing outside of recording. I had my uncle give his 2 cents on the matter in the track too.”

Kelz ignited anticipation ahead of today’s 3-pack release by revealing content that delves deeper into his artistry journey. He sat down for On The Radar Radio’s "On The Rise" documentary series – that explores his life growing up in East New York, Brooklyn as an aspiring young artist – and performed an original freestyle over a Cash Cobain beat for the platform – watch here and here.

Further elevating his profile, he’s joined forces with streetwear brand KidSuper for a visually compelling short film teasing songs from 3 Typa Nights – watch part 1 here and part 2 here. The brand previously hosted Kelz for his debut live performance during Paris Fashion Week opening for Kodak Black and Roddy Rich.

3 Typa Nights is a testament to Kelz's artistic evolution and his commitment to pushing boundaries within the music industry. With this release, he invites listeners to immerse themselves in his captivating sonic world. The journey for Kelz2Busy has just begun.
