He decided to follow his heart and pursue music full-time. With a few critical acclaims under his belt, a couple #1&#8217;s on The Hype Machine, winning The International Songwriting Competition for Best Unsigned and a few other achievements to his name, Kai Straw put heart, soul and sweat into his flurry of tracks (releasing one a month since he started his new project May), each a little more creative and honing on his craft to finally hold a serious contender with &#8220;Are You Coming With Me?&#8221;. It&#8217;s the start of a turn in our opinion. A turn to best fitting songwriting and sparkling production value that complement his vocal performance best. It really shines here with interspersed falsettos on the layered beats and a groovy bassline to boot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Listen to <strong>Kai Straw<\/strong>&#8216;s latest jam: &#8220;<strong>Are You Coming With Me?<\/strong>&#8220;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"no\" allow=\"autoplay\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?url=https%3A\/\/api.soundcloud.com\/tracks\/903634669&#038;color=%239c2441&#038;auto_play=false&#038;hide_related=false&#038;show_comments=true&#038;show_user=true&#038;show_reposts=false&#038;show_teaser=true\"><\/iframe><div style=\"font-size: 10px; color: #cccccc;line-break: anywhere;word-break: normal;overflow: hidden;white-space: nowrap;text-overflow: ellipsis; font-family: Interstate,Lucida Grande,Lucida Sans Unicode,Lucida Sans,Garuda,Verdana,Tahoma,sans-serif;font-weight: 100;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/kaistraw\" title=\"Kai Straw\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color: #cccccc; text-decoration: none;\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Kai Straw<\/a> \u00b7 <a href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/kaistraw\/are-you-coming-with-me\" title=\"Are You Coming with Me?\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color: #cccccc; text-decoration: none;\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Are You Coming with Me?<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>Picture your favourite crush slowly and sensually peeling clothes and feeling that shiver down your spine as well as your partner&#8217;s emotional state rendering through the naked skin. &#8220;Are You Coming With Me?&#8221; is the auditory equivalent of sex.&nbsp;The track suggests plenty more with a seductive guitar riff, Kai Straw&#8217;s crooning abilities with the high-notes reached in an unmistakeable climax, finally, all the innuendo gems that populate the lyrics that could make anyone blush at this point are just a few of the reasons why you should let listen to this particular track.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">&#8220;Are You Coming With Me?&#8221;&nbsp;is <strong>Kai Straw<\/strong>&#8216;s sixth single since starting that project in May.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter is-style-rectangular\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__gallery\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__row\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img  decoding=\"async\"  data-attachment-id=\"68797\"  data-permalink=\"https:\/\/sodwee.com\/blog\/2020\/10\/kai-straw-are-you-coming-with-me\/734b9cb4-7081-4402-9c54-dd07132a0b1a-1592974629875\/\"  data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/sodwee.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/734b9cb4-7081-4402-9c54-dd07132a0b1a-1592974629875.jpeg?fit=1440%2C1440&amp;ssl=1\"  data-orig-size=\"1440,1440\"  data-comments-opened=\"1\"  data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\"  data-image-title=\"Kai Straw &amp;#8211; Are You Coming With Me?
