The project is a focused evolution of the groundwork he laid with last year\u2019s debut EP Late Nite Slider Music, which introduced his own strand of contemporary R&amp;B, steeped in soul influences and paying homage to the musical legacy of the wider Bay Area. SLIDER II includes previously-released singles <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><a style=\"color: #ff0000;\" href=\"https:\/\/rapindustry.com\/friscos-karri-shares-new-single-strip\/\"><strong>\u201cstrip\u201d<\/strong><\/a><\/span> and<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><a style=\"color: #ff0000;\" href=\"https:\/\/rapindustry.com\/karri-go-ft-kehlani\/\"><strong> \u201cgo\u201d featuring Kehlani<\/strong><\/a><\/span>, along with additional guest features from Leon Bridges, Hunxho, Pimmie and Grammy award-winner Dre Moon (Beyonce, The Weeknd, Future).<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><iframe title=\"Karri - risky\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Of60jkjzpOM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><noscript><iframe title=\"Karri - risky\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Of60jkjzpOM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/noscript><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Earlier this week, Karri released EP cut \u201cRisky\u201d with visuals directed by Emmy nominated director Dave Laven (A$AP Rocky, Sam Austins, Kilo Kish), which captures Karri on a late night in San Francisco. This video is the first in a series of cinematic cuts from the project directed by Laven that will drop over the next several weeks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">SLIDER II is a statement of intent for Karri entering 2026 as one of R&amp;B\u2019s innovative new voices championed by peers like Lil Baby, Drake and Kehlani. The project widens the aperture of what listeners can expect from Karri\u2019s sound, ranging from the sultry late-night croons of his debut, to upbeat, Bay Area hip-hop influenced tracks that are meant to be played loud in the car or the club. 2025 has been a year of relentless growth for the 22-year-old, opening the year being hailed by Billboard as their R&amp;B Rookie of the Month, touring with Isaiah Falls and playing Wireless Festival in London. It\u2019s also been a year of honing his craft, making SLIDER II while simultaneously collaborating with a diverse set of artists including Joe Kay of Soulection, Goapele, Jack Dine and more.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=videoseries\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=videoseries<\/a><noscript><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=videoseries\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=videoseries<\/a><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p><!-- CONTENT END 1 -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- ItShrt Hip Hop Magizine News -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"9431463036\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Bay Area\u2019s burgeoning star Karri releases his new EP SLIDER II via PFL (Playing For Legacy).
