Watch the video for Channel Tres’ “Cactus Water.” The single is on the producer’s Head Rush debut album and has a new release date of June 28th. Thundercat, Toro y Moi, Ravyn Lenae, Estelle, Ty Dollar $ign, Teezo Touchdown, and Watr have guest appearances on the Compton DJ’s new musical outing. “Cactus Water” is a catchy R&B romp with many Prince-isms in its makeup right down to the tinny-sounding keys, rhythm guitar, and steamy lyrics. Channel Tres and his crew perform some of the choreography from his tour in the video. He explained his decision to release an album after releasing six EPs and numerous singles since 2018 including “Topdown,” “Controller” and the Honey Dijon collaboration “Show Me Some Love.” “There were things about my story that I didn’t know how to express, musically or lyrically,” he says. But after a sometimes trying period of growth, he’s finally ready to articulate this chapter of his life: “I would say my artistry has grown to a place where I’m comfortable sharing this much at one time.” Head Rush comes on June 28th on RCA Records.
