Oscillating between Alternative, Folk and Blues while anchored on Hip Hop - Sayla is a rapper with a pension for experimenting with new blends of sounds and genres. A founding member of South-East Asian music collective - XXII and rap duo Dose Two, Sayla’s body of work through the years charts a bold and often unusual journey into new musical grounds. Each being a reflection of different headspace and narrative; every project a deliberate divergence from its predecessor. While “Utopian Dreams” and “Obscura” serves a taste of a young Sayla still in the midst of self-discovery, “Conversations with Self & Other Stories” presents a more mature, well-rounded version of the artist. The ambitious LP was a re-introduction of what Sayla's represented - fragmented moods, with unconventional features, instrumentation, subject matter and composition. Having moved to Europe, Sayla returned with a new sound on debut album “(Sic)”. A clear departure from his previous LP, “(Sic)” explored amalgamating emotive themes with consistent textured sounds. The result was a distinctive album that steered closer to Trap, but still marked Sayla's pension of being an outlier. In 2019, Sayla released “Coda”, a brash and dark mixtape - an appetiser to his second and final full-length album to be released the following year. “Coda consist of things that needed to be said, but did not match the narrative of the upcoming album. Similar to how Unwelcomed did not sit well in (Sic)”- Sayla
