An aptly-titled exclusive for the fans, YaBoiM.O.E releases a brand new EP of originals, openly tackling the current issues of our world whilst igniting a love for the classic weight and clarity of organic, authentic hip hop.
Rap
The One makes fine use of shock factor increasingly throughout its lifespan, evolving from the love song to something else entirely as we realise the sheer eccentrics of Steve, the Anxious Rapper.
Really well-crafted, a voice that’s in tune with the mood and concept, and a musicality that pays into the same goal.
Making his comeback with a melodic and euphoric rap single, Nw Jetski sets the mood and varies his flow with the uplifting, aptly-titled Inspired.
New-age rap act Narcos GGG inject a little colour and concept into modern hip hop, with a series of releases that bring together dreamy soundscapes, trap rhythms, melodic hooks and emotive storylines.
“I would love to perform live in front of people just the only thing is I’m an introvert and hate people looking at me.”
Simple in style yet hard-hitting in tone and subtly clever in wordplay, the track keeps things minimal to draw focus to a somewhat more focused vocal than most.
‘Classic vibes in the making’ pours through as a perfectly self-aware opening bar for this quickly energising, beautifully crafted and inspiring hip hop anthem from MALIK ALI.
A welcomed change in direction for the modern rap scene. An uplifting, motivational and consistently smart listen.
As always, there’s no mistaking the voice and rap stylings of Comatose Red Ivy. The music forever evolves, but vocal integrity rings true regardless.
Lion Tribe manages to be both the catchy, self-empowering anthem that contemporary pop needs, and a notably alternative, artistically crafted indie hit.
A minimalist vocal anthem that’s clearly in tune with the sound of the moment but also marches to the beat of its own creatively carefree drum.
