The title track ‘Bad News’ showcases a striking blend of intense rock sound and solid hip-hop rhythm.

The unpredictable pre-chorus builds tension, leaving listeners holding their breath. When the vocals finally kick in at the chorus, it signals the arrival of a game-changer.

The double title track ‘Nobody Knows’ is an R&B song influenced by 1970s psychedelic, punk music, and the classic mood of Philadelphia Soul. With its languid yet head-nodding rhythm and captivating bass/guitar play, this track stands out for its complexity and the high level of understanding and vocal skill it demands. Taking on this original genre music, KISS OF LIFE’s musical ambition and passion will offer listeners a unique charm and a new experience.
