Dasan’s new track “Monfils” hits like a cold reminder that life’s struggles ain’t all bad— and that there’s beauty in the dirt if you know where to look. It starts off slow, with guitars that almost creep up on you, and ghostly keys that float around and keep things swimming in the moody end of the pool. Then the lo-fi hi-hats creep in, setting the pace and lowkey pulling you deeper into your own head. Dasan’s flow is clean, almost conversational, but there’s no mistaking the weight behind it—he’s saying what needs to be said.
His lyrics show that he’s on a bit of a different frequency than the average—”That ain’t dirt, that’s stardust/ Beneath the dirt there’s a promise,” is more than just wordplay, it’s a shift in perspective. The way he tells it, the struggle isn’t just hustling to survive —it’s part of something much bigger. His words bounce between heavy philosophical moments and ancient myths, connecting the dots between love, figuring out who you are, and the tension that life throws at you.
The beat builds and fades, reaching its peak when the moody keys swell before eventually fading away and leaving you floating in your thoughts. “Monfils” pulls no punches, both musically and mentally. The soothing pace and melodic sound set you up, but it’s the way Dasan twists every line that forces you to rethink where you stand in the grand scheme of things.
