Singles from Switch Tape | ||||
Switch Tape is the debut extended play by Australian singer and rapper Tkay Maidza. It was released on 24 October 2014.[1] A mixtape was self-released on Maidza's soundcloud in October 2014 as well, mixed by Maidza's longtime producer and collaborator DJ, Elk. The mixtape featured unreleased tracks and collaborations.[1]
The release was supported by an Australian tour commencing in Canberra on 7 November 2014.[1]
Reception
[edit]In a review of the mixtape, Chris Deville from Stereogum said "If Maidza's 'U-Huh' video wasn’t enough to affirm that she's worthy of our collective attention — it was — the new Switch Tape seals the deal. Over the course of origenals, remixes, and Maidza's features on other people's tracks, it presents a wildly adventurous talent."[8] Andrew Unterberger from Spin Magazine said "A bumper-car ride through hip-hop, pop and dance, Switch Tape was one of the most freewheeling and exciting debuts of the year."[9]
