Kaytranada
Picking up dual Grammys for his sophomore studio album as KAYTRANADA — 2019’s BUBBA — at this year’s virtual ceremony may have cemented his industry cred, but it feels like a long overdue recognition. Since rocketing to overnight SoundCloud stardom with an unofficial remix of Janet Jackson’s “If” in 2012, the Haitian-Canadian producer has found an ever-expanding audience for his earthy, retro-fitted electro-funk (and a veritable army of high-profile musical collaborators, from Kendrick Lamar to Pharrell Williams and Madonna).
