They Took Me Down
About the album
They Took Me Down is an 11-track album from Young Hadene, released on October 2, 2026 through his independent imprint, Str8hitsRecords.1 It runs about 20 minutes, and Apple Music files it under Hip-Hop/Rap.1
Young Hadene was born in Haiti, spent part of his childhood in Florida and is now based in Toronto. That route runs through his work, and you can read more of it in his Haitian-Toronto story or on the about page. He puts out his music independently, and They Took Me Down is his newest full-length release.
The independent music outlet Exposed Vocals featured the album and interviewed him about the setbacks behind it, his identity and building independently.2
The sound
Young Hadene makes Toronto drill and dark trap. If those are new to you, start with what Toronto drill music is and how dark trap differs from drill. The tracks on They Took Me Down are short, between about one and three minutes each, so the whole album plays straight through in one sitting.1
