Short chords from electric piano and synthesizer set the mood, contemplative but with a pulse.“Estoy aquí / ya estuve allá / ya fui feliz / y acaba mal,” Ene de Nadie croons — “I’m here / I was already there / I was already happy / it ends badly” — as the beat drops. The lyrics are full of longing and regret, while the music pulses on, the kind of song you can dance and cry to.
So begins Good Morning, Good People, a full album of Spanish hip hop from Ene de Nadie. It’s one of a few recent releases from New Haven-based artists who are more than finding their footing in the music world; they’re running with their ideas in ways more than compelling enough to follow.
