Born Soul Drops New EP “Vybe King”
Born Soul kicks off the new year with a new EP, “Vybe King.” “Vybe King” is Born Soul’s first EP. The six-track masterpiece is chock full of sounds and puts a unique spin on the Hip-Hop/Rap genre. Born Soul is exactly what the title of his EP suggests – he is a king of vibes. The EP takes listeners on a sonic journey, and each song has its own distinct vibe. “Every moment on Earth is vibe driven.” Born Soul continues: “Surround yourself with like-minded individuals. This EP serves as an advisory piece, emphasizing the idea that one is the ruler of their own space – have a life plan and stay goal driven.”
“Vybe King” starts off with “The Wind.” “The Wind” has a spooky sound to it, and Born Soul spits witty, hard-hitting bars. He has a Lil Yachty reminiscent flow on the track. “Trailblaze” is up next. Trailblaze” is a Rap track with a Trap sound to it that is reminiscent of a Three 6 Mafia vibe. Track three, “Caesar,” showcases Born Soul’s lyrical prowess, and how he is not only the king of vibes, but also the king of Hip-Hop. “Ideas” keeps with the Hip-Hop vibe. It is a motivational, Conscious Hip-Hop/Rap song that has a wavy beat. The penultimate record, “Sphere of Love,” has a funky, Soul vibe. “Adagio Fountain” is the closer. The song rounds out the EP well, and has a chill, emotive feel to it. “Adagio Fountain” has an OutKast vibe, and Born Soul bares his soul on the record.
“Vybe King” is an impressive body of work that has tracks for listeners that like Hip-Hop/Rap and its various subgenres. Born Soul puts forth a project laced with powerful, metaphoric, and hyphy lyrics that resonate with all who listen. Vibe out to Born Soul’s “Vybe King” and catch a vibe.

Speaking on the forthcoming album Kingdom Kome stated “I feel like this is our best work together. The concept of the album is beauty within the errors and flaws in art as well as in one’s life. Sometimes the more flawed the art is, the more its value appreciates.”
Kingdom Kome released five albums last year and RUEN produced a few of those, including Dirty Linens 2, the second full-length collaboration album between Kingdom Kome and Brockton, MA’s masked menace G Fam Black. RUEN also fully aced the Barrel Reserve LP, a more elegant and hazy work.
