Hari - 4AM

Chicago rapper takes listeners through relatable journey with new single ‘4 AM’ and forthcoming self-titled album ‘Hari’

CHICAGO, IL – The mind thinks of random things in the early hours of the morning. Chicago rapper Hari (used to be known as Leastkoo) takes listeners on a fun ride through his own thoughts with his latest single “4 AM,” currently available across all streaming platforms. With a catchy hook and a mid-tempo bounce, “4 AM” offers lyrics that will immediately catch the attention of anyone who hears it, with most immediately able to connect with the vibe that Hari is presenting.

“It’s very relatable,” Hari said. “There are a lot of things that it talks about that my mind thinks about at 4 AM. It talks about my ex and how she moved on and how it could have been better. It talks about my uncle who passed and how his spirit is still near and around me. It talks about how I had started smoking at the beginning of the year but that I’ve backed off from that. It’s the thoughts that are running through my head at that time of the day, which I think is something that most people can really relate to.”

 

The single is the first off a 12-song album called “Hari” which is slated to drop on Dec. 13. Serving as an introduction of this young up-and-coming artist, “Hari” dives into the journey that he’s taken over the past couple of years to get to where he is today as a professional recording artist. Throughout the project, Hari comes back to the major event that sparked his desire to pursue music full-time – the death of his cousin who overdosed on drugs earlier this year.

“It’s about him and what I’ve been dealing with personally on my own,” Hari said of the album. “I had to take a step back from everybody that I had surrounded myself with so that I could focus more on my music and get myself together. I hope my music is something people can go back to and refresh their minds time and time again. I want them to do what I always did with music that I loved – I like to listen to things that would get me up and put me in a good mood or inspire me to keep going. I listen to other artists to get that inspiration, and that’s what I want my music to do for others.” 

Hari’s sound is distinct though he embraces vibes that are familiar. He blends Rap, R&B and Hip Hop into his own signature style to create something truly original. And this is just the beginning. Hari said he’s excited for fans to check out his album and to begin following his career because he has a lot more music planned for 2021 and beyond.
