Cam Blair isn’t just dropping a new single, he’s dropping a full-on sonic experience with “Place To Be.” Released on May 17, this track is a heady blend of classic with hip-hop swagger.

Forget your typical intro. “Place To Be” explodes with shimmering, suspenseful, theatrical strings that streak out like thunder strikes. Then, high-pitched vocal samples slice through the air, creating a sense of anticipation so thick and primal you can and will practically want to cut it with a knife. It’s a powerful, vibrant combination unlike anything heard before.

But Cam Blair isn’t one for classical serenity for long. He storms in with a voice that’s loud, strong, and undeniably confident over glitzy effortless beats. He raps with a swagger that’s equal parts smooth and playful, his words hitting hard yet gliding over the glitzy beat with effortless cool.

He throws out sharp lines that leave no room for doubt—this is his place to be. You can imagine it, especially the addictive dominant refrain of “Bounce!” It’s like watching a scene unfold before your eyes, a scene that’s both electrifying and undeniably sexy.

The song builds to a pulsating energy, electrifying and thunderous, yet maintaining a seductive undercurrent with the lyrics. Influenced by the likes of Lil Wayne, Jay Z, and J Cole, Blair clearly understands the power of a well-crafted rhyme. “Place To Be” is an experience. Listen to it and let this be your turn to experience it.
