Contemporary R&B
Contemporary R&BElectronicFunk

Kaytranada is a Contemporary R&B and Electronic act. Their catalogue also touches Funk. Their sound grew out of Kelela, Shawn Mendes, Earth Wind and Fire, Janet Jackson and Kelis. Those roots explain a lot about how Kaytranada arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as GoldLink, The Internet, Channel Tres, NxWorries and Isaiah Rashad, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into PinkPantheress, p-rallel, River Tiber and Sango, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 49 connections around Kaytranada, reaching back through Kelela and forward to PinkPantheress.
