The singer-songwriter’s ninth album showcases his lyrical skills
Arjan Dhillon first made a mark as a lyricist for vocalists such as Nimrat Khaira, before becoming one of the most popular singer-rappers of the 2020s. His ability to write incisive verses conveying a range of emotions and experiences has helped him stand out. That skill shines on an impactful ninth album, produced by such red-hot beatsmiths as Jay Trak and MXRCI and featuring a collab with the legendary Jazzy B (“One Call Away”). Dhillon sings eloquently about integrity (“No Shortcut”), loyalty (“Enigma”) and a lot about love (“Counting Gems”, “Skyfull”, “Better With Me”).
