What at first feels like a familiar, modern day release, quickly evolves into a unique fusion of styles & genres consistently true to the artist’s own way with music.
Hip-Hop
I hear a lot of hip hop but I genuinely haven’t heard anyone doing it with quite this level of relevance & unavoidable truth in a long time.
You’ve stumbled upon a true artist, someone whose creative reach is inspired by but far from confined to the sounds of the moment.
Donny Doomsday’s approach to rap & hip hop in general is refreshingly real & unexpectedly humble. His confidence & skill are unquestionable, but you get a clear sense that this music has been made out of a sheer love for the art of it. For that reason, you want to listen.
The unwavering rap flow featured on this release is incredible – the main take-away from listening & by far the one thing that takes you aback as the music plays out. This is hip hop story-telling at its best.
A style born from a place like Detroit is often in a league of its own, and an Emcee like Cesare working the fiercely competitive & burgeoning independent music scene of the city has a clearly established sound & style.
SlickMick has been through something that’s difficult to imagine. The detail offered on this single is unwavering, holding nothing back, appearing as a mellow freestyle – a one-take expression of story-line & emotional impact.
Honesty drives the project, creative expression navigates. If you’ve been keenly anticipating a project that is nothing like its peers, nothing like you’ll have heard before; this is for you.
There’s something really soothing about this piece of music & writing. The simplicity of the soundscape is a part of this, Syke E’s voice is another – his tone fits perfectly with the mood set by the instrumentation.
What stands the tallest about this version of Where Is My Mind is Costi’s rap verse, particularly that opening set of bars – it comes so unexpectedly & proceeds to effortlessly pour these fresh ideas & rhymes out to you in a calm yet confident way.
Daniel has done well to create something unique. What’s interesting about this song though is that musically it appears as a totally alternative, beautifully alt-pop sort of track, satisfying yet incredibly unusual & constantly in conflict with its own energy.
Battle Scars is a totally smooth & easily recognisable song. It feels fresh, mellow, creative, and it presents audiences with the sound of an artist who knows his intentions & his influences, and drives with individuality regardless – in a subtle but certain way.
