Ceyeo excels in anonymity. There is a pull in his music that you feel, only because of the composition and lyrics. There is no dependence on the pageantry, this is all for the passion. With incredible lyrics and heartfelt, relatable poetry being his centrefold, you’re in for a treat with every release. This is his latest single, Lost.
You can almost breathe in the conversation. The feeling is common, it is mankind’s weakness to be lost at some point or the other. The state of mind is almost a helplessness.

I view the instrumentals as the hope you’re reaching towards, as the lyrics unfold to exemplify the conscious state of mind. This is where the poetry of hip-hop lies, in understanding society through your own lens. As the instrumentals slowly fade away with the lyrics getting heavier, you tend to have a pinhole perspective, of what might be this artist’s state of mind. An enjoyable, conscious song from a marvelous performer.
