King Rizzy sets the vibe on fire with latest single “The Weekend”

Texas-born, California-based act King Rizzy has just delivered a certified vibe in the form of his newest single, “The Weekend,” featuring A Plus Tha Kid. It’s a high-energy tune that sounds like Friday night stuffed into a beat. Constructed with an unrepentant swagger and a rhythm that you can move your shoulders to before you consciously even mean to, “The Weekend” comes in favor of casting off the weekday grind and unequivocally succumbing to whatever silly plans the evening has in store. King Rizzy is crafting an aura.

Whether you’re riding with your squad or stepping out to a place where the lights go low and the sub is loud, this track sounds like your new weekend soundtrack. There’s a propulsive bounce to the beat here that hits all the right spots, and Rizzy’s delivery matches the wave with surgical accuracy. His lyrics are for anyone who’s occasionally felt the itch to change the routine and live it up for a couple of days. What stands out in Rizzy here is his easy confidence. You can hear the Texas underpinning in his cadence and feel the West Coast influence in the track’s vibe.

He seamlessly fuses both worlds, resulting in a sound that feels both familiar and novel. “The Weekend” isn’t looking to shake up the world. It’s trying to get you out of the house, out of your head, and into the moment, and it succeeds. So if your playlists have been getting a little chip on its shoulder, or taking itself overly seriously, King Rizzy is here to remind us what music can do when it feels like just having fun. This one’s for the rule breakers, the sippers, and anyone who’s ever thought, “Let’s just pop out for the weekend.”
