"Sun is Going Down," Toby TomTom's new single, is a vibe, a struggle, and a funky-ass cry for enlightenment. With a fusion of Hip-Hop, EDM, and Trap, this genre-defying track features an eruption of emotions as part of the storm growing within a world that hovers on the edge of chaos and hope.
Toby sets the tone with raw beats that hit you hard. The synths are solid, the percussion-driven, and the vocal delivery locks into the rhythm like a rebel on a mission. "Sun is Going Down" is an intuitive take on how the world has become, a sentiment that will ring too close to true for many. It is a portrait at once intimate and epic that feels universal, the frustration with injustice, the fatigue of seemingly daily headlines, and the quiet and constantly igniting spark that things can still change. That's the sound of someone who won't give up just because the sun sets on a day.
There is something fiercely defiant about how Toby pieces together this resonant tapestry. It insists on change. But even amid its grit and defiance, a strand of optimism runs through the surfaces. With a beat that reflects the still, anxious moments and the sweaty, swinging times, this record is of the times and the fighter within us. Toby's overall message is that the world is heavy, but the music will keep us moving.
