tonun has really rich, smokey vocals that he is able to utilize to great effect. I happened to stumble upon his new album and decided to check it out which led me to fall in love with his music. “Sugar Magic” is such a fun track that it is my personal favorite. I love the composition of “Sugar Magic” combined with his smoky cool vocals. I wind up listening to this song on repeat, but on tracks like “Blue Spring” tonun shows off his more chill side which is also well done.
