Kaytranada has a new album that's been highly anticipated even though he only announced it on Monday.
Ain't No Damn Way! is his fourth studio album, arriving just over a year after his previous record, Timeless. It's full of the Montreal producer's signature groove, which is now practically a genre of its own, while weaving in samples from TLC, J Dilla, Tangerine Dream and more.
Kaytranada recently opened for The Weeknd on that superstar's historic run of shows at Toronto’s Roger’s Centre and will co-headline a tour with Justice in October. Here's the album's first single.
A number of Canadian artists are putting out new albums this week, which you can find in our calendar below.
