Style: ‘80s Pop, Pop, Alt-Rock

Kid Rose is an artist who leans into nostalgia, blending the glitz of ‘80s pop with the sleekness of contemporary production. The era-mixing works but dialing back on the heavy vocal manipulation could turn these tracks into something comparable to what the Weeknd did with “Blinding Lights.” There’s a clear passion for retro aesthetics here, paired with a modern sensibility that gives the music a unique edge, though while the songs succeed in their vision, they don’t reach the height of their influences. Kid Rose clearly has the ability to refine and elevate his sound, and it’ll be interesting to see what he does next.
