Stylistically and conceptually reflecting on the death of an era, the grip of war and the symbolic destruction of 90’s counter-culture, Denmark’s Jakob The Liar breaks free from the confines of genre, with a track that’s as creatively outrageous and intriguing as its title implies.
Hip Hop
Horror-infused Hip Hop intertwined with fiercely black humor and mindless violence – rappers Bela Teqiz and Erold Dunkel collaborate to ignite an inescapable reaction, for DÄMMERUNG.
“Be patient, everything is about timing. What’s meant for me is already mine. Embrace the journey. Embrace adversity. I wouldn’t want it any other way.”
“For those who are new, I write and produce Alternative Hip-Hop, I’m based in Fort Worth, TX at the moment, and I first started making music at the age of 11. I recorded my first verse with my oldest brother’s friends when I was 14 I think.”
Chicago rapper and artist Big Meniz recently collaborated with SoundMaster T and C.O. Tha Bad Black for the deeply moving Hip Hop single Walk With God. Perhaps his most compelling release to date, the single and video drew focus to a whole new side of Big Meniz’ artistry.
Piano-led reflections emerge from the full-length mixtape History In The Making, as rapper and artist Enncee keeps things authentic and heartfelt, for Wasting My Time
“Authenticity and realness is what I strive for always, even outside of music. To me, being true to who you are is the most effective and impactful way to be able to reach others and relate to the listeners.”
“I share my every day life with my fans on my socials. I acknowledge my growth and I’m thankful for where I am now.”
Emerging complete with a set of visuals boldly reinforcing the self-indulgence and optimism at the heart of this pop-hip-hop fusion single, On My Time celebrates the value of appreciating a little me-time, and promises a summer-vibes ear-worm and captivating storyboard in the same instance.
“The music I make is honestly just a journal entry of what’s going on in my life, it reflects me as a person so I think my audience will grow with me and accept whatever it is I do.”
“I would say the main focus is self expression and being honest. Saying out loud what I feel inside, being open about my worries, problems, insecurities in myself, how I feel towards the future and how I view the world we live in today.”
Humble but effective, hints of sax and oriental strings feature amidst an otherwise simple rap anthem of storytelling and musical good vibes. There’s darkness in the lyrics, and this contrasts the optimism of the production – another quality Levi Grxce is no stranger to delivering.
