It’s ‘Radioactive’ for everyone right now
Whether you need a reason to move around or go on a full-fledged marathon, IDK comes through with the hard-hitting tune. Need more than just audio gold? The hip-hop artist also delivers with the song’s music video.
Today, Maryland rap auteur IDK kicks off 2023 with his undeniable new single, “Radioactive.” Listen HERE via Clue/Warner Records. It comes complete with a true-to-life video, which captures the creative energy that fills every bar of the song.
While some of IDK’s recent work captures subtle tones indebted to R&B and jazz, “Radioactive” was inspired by Baltimore’s dance scene and shows the versatility that has long made him one of the rappers best equipped to handle dance and electronic music. Over a pulsing beat, IDK veers from tightly clipped, technically precise runs to smartly harmonized passages, each compounding the other’s power. And yet it’s not the formal wizardry that sells the song – it’s the artist’s unwavering point of view. “Tryna' off me?” he taunts at one point. “Not today.”
“Radioactive” is the latest in an impressive streak of daring new dispatches from IDK. This year alone has seen him drop a series of singles that captures that aforementioned range, which spans from the jazzy and avant-garde to hard-hitting: see “Coal,” “Monsieur Dior,” “Free Slime,” or “Drive.” IDK has managed all of this while hitting the road alongside Pusha-T for the Virginia icon’s It’s Almost Dry tour, where IDK has performed songs from Simple., his eight-track collaborative project with Grammy Award-winning DJ/producer Kaytranada.
