Brooklyn’s lyricism throughout this record just feels like she’s sinking within as she watches the “ships in the night” slowly & painfully drift from out her reach, not a lifeline in sight. She could’ve easily returned to music with another Pop hit like “Retail Therapy” or “Coulda Shoulda Woulda”, “They Don’t Get It”, etc etc but instead, she took a risk in releasing some of her most personal work to date & you just have to appreciate it.

With the debut of her highly anticipated album “Morningside Heights”, named after her neighborhood in El Paso, Krystall Poppin solidifies her hometown pride while showcasing a refined sound that resonates far beyond city limits. El Paso has always been part of her narrative, but it feels like a full-circle moment this time.

If these two tracks are any indication of what’s to come from Khali’s highly anticipated project, then best believe we’re sitting at attention, ready and waiting for what other firepower he’s got in store.

There’s something visceral about heartbreak when it lingers, not in vivid memories, but in flickers. Ashaunté captures this feeling with surgical precision on her newest single, “Static.”

My introduction to 2turnt was all thanks to Ayye R, who slid me his latest visual titled “My Way.” The production caught me immediately; a familiar beat laced with a fresh rap scheme adds a whole new flair.

The title itself serves as a symbolic invitation: Just like in a theater, the “house” is open, and Robby is welcoming us to find a seat and witness the show.

When Ron Killings isn’t flipping his opponents in the wrestling ring or cracking up crowds with his signature charisma, he’s locked in the booth, proving just how multifaceted his artistry is.

Bamsworth Belli is back with the third installment in his “Hi I’m Bamsworth” series. This time, he delivers a deeply reflective, emotionally charged body of work that shows how far he’s come, both as an artist and a person.

When an artist can balance vulnerability with self-assurance, you know you’re listening to something special, and GAWF delivers just that on his latest ballad, “Deja Vu.”

RLPson returns this year with his latest track “You,” which released mid March this past month on Thursday, March 14th. I had the pleasure of meeting Ronnie in collaboration, where the first impression of his versatility and quality of music was undeniably great.

Under Issac Ray, he focuses on playing his acoustic guitar and delivers a more personal, intimate vocal and writing performance. Although SUNGATEPARK has now disbanded this year, Issac Ray persists with displaying his artistry as a solo project.

Shadoh didn’t hold anything back on this EP; she gave every bit of her heart to make it a special release. We admire her more as an artist and warrior; she’s a soulful person and someone to recognize as a blessing to the music community.

Her second single, “Reckless,” is out now, but we actually had the pleasure of previewing it a week before the initial release date and decided to break down the release in a way we know how.

We wanted to give you all a deeper look into the video drop, so we spoke with Mèlat below to see how this release came along and some interesting facts about her as well.

On “BANC” however, we get him at his most vulnerable but it’s still packaged in that easy listening fashion that is his trademark sound. So shall we journey into his self reflection with him, I think we better.
