Money Trees

Mak Ultra is back from the future to untangle his sonic identity; first stop, ‘Money Trees’ .

Returning after a short hiatus, Ultra offers a trap-laden strand of alternative rap that is reminiscent of collectives like House of Pharaohs and 237 Mob. The production from Troyce Pitones is futuristic and hazy, with booming drums and new age synths building a soundscape for Mak’s vocal, sugared in auto-tune, to unwind a rags to riches narrative tale.

Talking on his music, Mak commented: 

The music I create is an escape, a trip through my lens. That trips designed to evoke a series of emotion, from the fly, fast life of the city right down to your most vulnerable moment alone.
