We're always thoroughly impressed with acts that can create fairly simple, laid-back tracks that still manage to captivate and stand out. Today, a brand-new London-based artist who goes by the moniker "Rationale" has accomplished this feat with his debut single, "Fast Lane", a smooth, soulful tune that's sure to get you hooked on his sound instantly. With influences ranging from Morrissey to Drake, Rationale has come out of the gates by putting both his slightly tropical production and his highly distinctive vocals on clear display. As a result, we're already seriously interested in what more he has in store for us (like his four-track EP that's reportedly coming out this summer, per B3), so be sure to check out his exceptional first offering below and get ready to hear some more of his work in the days to come.
