Cartel Madras’ EVIDENT 2 ME arrives on 19 June as their first new music since 2021, and that silence makes the return hit harder. The Canadian duo of sisters Eboshi and Contraa have kept a low profile in recent years, reworking sound and identity behind the scenes while still popping up in enough strange places to keep the mythology warm. Their new collaboration with Toronto producer Jide pushes into drum and bass, which feels like a smart way to restart the engine: fast, physical, club-aware and wired for impact. Cartel Madras have always drawn from underground queer and punk energy as much as rap performance, and that hybridity is what keeps them compelling. EVIDENT 2 ME sounds like a re-entry flare, the kind of track that does not politely announce a comeback. It kicks the door and checks whether the room still has bass.
