“My biggest ambition right now is leveling up, staying down and determined, focused, motivated, continuously getting better and better, and just staying on my craft and in my own lane and doing me.”

An impressive debut, to say the least – a track that begs for you to witness it in a live setting. Purple Crosses intertwines desolation and hope, as it explores the concept of recovery and the overwhelming desire to escape the hellish grip of addiction.
Dreamy guitar lines and distant vocal hooks make up the catchy and contemporary sound of Ty Easley across the memorable new single Tell Me Lies.
Bringing together soulful RnB melodies and hard-hitting bars with a clear sense of identity – Sova Black draws focus to his lyricism and inspiring energy with Hood Famous.
His ideas have roots & wings alike, and his framing of these connects in a somewhat less intense, more minimal yet striking manner thanks to plenty of space & musical appeal.
Here comes that intellect, that fine balance between poetry, smart and sharp literacy, and personal emotion.
Being rightfully unafraid to take control of the track and work as a master over the soundscape, the artist needs only the strength of his bars, the memorable rhythm of that hook and the title concept, and precisely this kind of laid-back level of confidence in order for the music to leave its mark.
The quality is immense, the sound is unmistakable, and the bars are so consistently impressive that a single listen is far from enough to catch it all. Fans of original, genuine and smart hip hop will find this EP a pure joy to get lost within.
A uniquely focused song that talks of the artist’s determination as an artist – he puts in the work, something you can hear in the performance and the production quality, and so the song takes you through those stages in an energizing fashion.
He writes to remind himself to act & in doing that he offers the audience a similar feeling – an infectious energy that pushes you to take steps towards your goals.
Eclecticism is the key throughout this short playlist, but in line with that is an artist with a definite string of individuality within her performances and her approach to expression.
Qualifiers brings together multiple layers of organic musical colour with the artist’s own unquestionably genuine sounding voice & stories.
