Mangabey, the prolific French DJ and producer renowned for his contributions to iconic house labels like Toy Tonics, Nervous, Pont Neuf Records, and Novaj, is gearing up to release his debut album on Cracki Records in 2025. Following the immense success of his hit track ‘Time For You & Me’, which has racked up over two million streams, Mangabey embarks on a bold new musical chapter with the launch of his first single from the forthcoming album, ‘Six Figures Check’.
‘Six Figure Check’ marks a dramatic departure from his established sound, fusing sultry old-school rap verses from rising French vocalist Tora Meishi with a fresh take on alternative R&B, drawing inspiration from the vibrant UK scene (think RUBII, Jorja Smith, Lava La Rue, DRIIA).
Rolling percussion, hazy atmospherics, reverb-drenched vocals, jazzy instrumentals and hypnotic bass lure the listener into a sonic dreamscape – a surprising shift that highlights Mangabey’s immense production versatility, ‘Six Figures Check’ promises an exciting evolution of his musical journey, leaving us eager for what’s to come.
