I feel like 'Ye around 'Graduation,' raps Tunji Ige in his new song "Function." Later he adds, Say I sound like Cudi, say I sound like Drake. That's an impressive group of stars, but this young MC has a different comparison in mind: Think I sound like Biggavelli, come and ride the wave/ On a different page, Tunji please behave. The MC self-produced his track, stringing drums over a heart-wrenching R&B sample. Noah Breakfast added some keyboard playing.
In the fuzzy, black-and-white clip for "Function," Tunji strolls the streets of Paris. "This is an invitation into my world," he tells FADER in an email. "I've grown sooo much since The Love Project and I’m excited to start sharing everything that I've been creating with you all."
Watch the Josh Goldenberg-directed video above, and revisit Tunji's FADER feature.
