In a world where the music gets stuck in our heads easily and often, it can be difficult to find fresh, new tracks that you actually get excited to listen to. TayOG‘s EPs “Unhealthy Obsessions” and “Feelings Of A Savage 2” are great examples of the promising US urban artist, producer and rapper to enhance your playlist.
Not only is rapper TayOG’s EP well-thought-out, but it’s also incredibly enjoyable too. This time the American artist who is known for making hip-hop and pop fusion music has released six tracks, the EP also boasts a huge collection of tuneful rhymes that we can appreciate as well.
The six-track EP Unhealthy Obsessions takes listeners through a range of genres—from pop alternatives to indie R&B to hip-hop and even a little trap—while remaining true to Tay’s unique style.
TayOG is the perfect example of an artist who’s not afraid to experiment but still stays true to his roots. Throughout the tracks on this album, we hear traces of TayOG’s hip-hop influences, like Eminem and Lil Wayne.
The EP “Feelings Of A Savage 2” is a 10-track collection of amazing hip-hop and retro rap at its best. Well, we can say that there are also some hints of an old-school pop vibe that makes each song feel fresh and exciting.

There is a lot to explore in his portfolio, and we should spend some time getting to know him better. As part of the 2nd instalment of his mixtape “Feelings of Savage”, up-and-coming rapper TayOG continued to deliver soul-piercing songs through the use of his trademark rap style.
It’s evident his level of creativity and feelings are imprinted on his work. The concept of ‘TayOG’ is derived from the different phases of love. The act of loving oneself, loving afflictions, or loving obsessions will strike a person in different ways.
As the artist points out, he chose to create something that people could relate to in order to make his art more relatable. In order to express his emotions and narrate a story that everyone can feel connected to, no matter what they are going through, he wanted to bring his emotions to the surface and let his vulnerability tell the story.
TayOG believes that his fans will be able to get a breath of fresh air with his new projects. This is because they will be able to relate to his songs in a completely different way. According to him:
“For the people who go through similarities, they’ll understand that they’re not alone and that no matter who you are you always have a voice.”
