Connor Price enters the room with a badass aura in his latest release, “New Phone.” Teaming up with fellow rapper Ktlyn, this track implements minimal elements that maximize their impact.

This beat establishes a swagger that Connor Price and Ktlyn match with their lyrics and flows. They both rap about extravagance and popularity, both obtained from grinding away in the studio and making connections. Although they talk about luxury, Connor Price and Ktlyn prove that less is absolutely more in “New Phone,” a track that will absolutely have the club gyrating to its addictive beat.
