Berlin-based artist and rapper Kaleo Sansaa raises the bar in the conscious, alternative, and storytelling hip hop vibe, with the striking intensity of “Black Light.” Kaleo keeps things simple yet effective, with a creative, almost soothing beat, excellent vocal rhythm, flashes of melody, and an overall song that grabs the listener’s attention.
As a result of the overall soulful vibe, the listener’s spirit is bound to feel healed and whole as a result. It is only a brief moment, but you’ll feel the soulful swagger of the lyrical passages that are bold and strong running throughout this song.
“Black Light” highlights Kaleo’s unique and experimental brand of hip-hop – named solar-based-hip-hop by Kaleo – which sets her apart from many of her contemporaries. Solar-based hip-hop is essentially the pure expression of the soul and is characterized primarily by hypnotic, experimental hip-hop beats. Describing the sun as her greatest inspiration, at the core of Kaleo’s message is her solar-based philosophy – the belief that the sun never truly sets for mankind.
