Sango

Sango refers to his productions simply as beats, leaving the classification of his stylistically variable output -- which draws from contemporary R&B and hip-hop styles, non-commercial dubstep, funk carioca, and downtempo electronica -- to the listener. As a producer, the Seattle-based musician has worked with artists ranging from Bryson Tiller and Tinashe to PinkPantheress and Wale, but his own material has earned plenty of acclaim. In addition to his many self-released projects, Sango has recorded for labels like Soulection (2013's North) and Last Gang (2018's guest-heavy In the Comfort Of), and even RCA (2019's Xavier Omar collaboration Moments Spent Loving You). Over the next few years his music became increasingly diverse and often globally informed, with projects like 2020's Da Rocinha 4 and 97, a 2022 joint album with Brazilian singer Juniper. Kai Wright was born in Washington state but spent a good portion of his childhood in Grand Rapids, Michigan prior to attending college 50 miles south at Western Michigan University. When Wright graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts' degree in graphic design, his number of short-form releases under the name Sango was already in the double digits, and he had the support of Soulection, which had issued his 2013 set North. Additionally, he had begun flirting with the mainstream by co-producing "Cold Sweat" for Tinashe's Top 20 2014 hit Aquarius, and contributed to "The Sequence," off Bryson Tiller's T R A P S O U L, a Top 20 entry near the end of 2015. Wright's own releases continued to flow after he moved back to Seattle. Among the titles were 2016's Hours Spent Loving You (a collaboration with Xavier Omar) and 2017's De Mim, Pra Você, both of which were self-released. Last Gang Records issued 2018's In the Comfort Of, a major project featuring guests like Smino, Jesse Boykins III, and James Vincent McMorrow. A year later, he and Omar teamed up for the RCA-issued Moments Spent Loving You, a sequel to their previous outing. Over the next several years, Sango's output remained not only prolific, but consistently diverse with globally influenced projects like Da Rocinha 4 and Shango, as well as regional ones like his 2022 Michigan homage Great Lakes Influence. A collaboration with Brazilian singer Juniper yielded the full-length 97, after which he focused on a series of 2023 single with artists like femdot., Earlly Mac, and Masego.
