Kaylon Raps Remains Candid on Recently Released Single, "Temptation", Featuring theMIND

How often do you have to battle the urge to do something you realize you shouldn't? I'm fortunate if I can last through the day without surrendering to my impulses, though that's just when it comes to things that don't really matter. Kaylon Raps, a Milwaukee hip hop musician, presented a detailed image last Friday in his recent single "Temptation" featuring acclaimed Philly artist theMIND. It conveyed a strong expression of profound inner emotions that no matter how many, still leave a hollow space inside.

As the track plays, you'll quickly recognize Kaylon's susceptibility to temptation and understand why he can’t seem to fill that void. It's a struggle to make the right decisions or even better have a clear mind while faced with uncertainty, numbness and the indecisiveness of just being human. Like many of his other songs, this level of openness is how listeners have an exclusive bond with his music.

“Maybe I'm f*cked up for giving in to- all of these f*cked up feelings bout’ you”

The gentle undulating tune and harmonies of the chorus create a warm atmosphere that makes the intense feelings easier to process. Sung by theMIND, it is a precise illustration of the song's focus and adds a complete sound to the track.
