KAYTRANADA releases his new album AIN’T NO DAMN WAY! via RCA Records. The Haitian-Canadian star surprised fans by announcing the album on socials on Monday and released the full-length’s lead single “SPACE INVADER” later that night. The new single embodied the retro-modern approach to production KAYTRANADA has made his own, crafting a streaking, synth-led, bass-heavy club tune that he’s teased in sets over the course of the year including at HARD Summer earlier this month.
AIN’T NO DAMN WAY! is an intentional return to KAYTRANADA’s dance music roots, iterating on the catalog he’s built as one of the genre’s leading innovators. The new album proves KAYTRANADA’s signature club beats to be boundless. Across these songs, he weaves in samples from the likes of TLC, J Dilla, Latrelle, Tangerine Dream and more, bringing each into his world and translating them to the universality of the dancefloor. AIN’T NO DAMN WAY! is the producer’s first offering of original music since his Grammy-nominated 2024 album TIMELESS, which he followed by releasing the instrumental version of the album earlier this year.
In October, KAYTRANADA and JUSTICE will embark on their co-headline fall North American tour, presented by Live Nation. The two iconic electronic artists, who first shared a bill at the famed Basilica of the Sacré-Cœur de Montmartre in Paris last June, will play arenas across the continent, beginning October 16th in Vancouver and wrapping up on November 16th in Miami.
