MUSIC DISCOVERY

Off Topic, Promotional Image

Why We Like It: Off Topic’s “Threat”

On his chilly new single, New Jersey emcee Off Topic intimidates with ease over an uneasy beat. “Threat” is grimy, lo-fi and heavy with the rhymes.

One Step Closer, Diz, Promotional Image

Why We Like It: Diz’s “One Step Closer”

Diz basks in his journey towards fulfilling his purpose. Art is a reflection and the reflection of “One Step Closer” is the artist finding that purpose.

Why We Like It: Max Swan’s “Shackles”

On “Shackles,” his ambitious R&B track, Max Swan fuses incisive introspection with a dense and soaring arrangement.

Promotional Image, SubmitHub, Renee Stormz, Rise Above

Why We Like It: Renee Stormz’s “Rise Above”

Renee Stormz basks in confidence, exorcising her pain with “Rise Above.” Her flow is unbreakable over a beat that trickles through speakers.

Noha Saré, Head Held High, Promotional Image

Why We Like It: Noha Saré’s “Head Held High”

On “Head Held High,” Amsterdam’s Noha Saré deepens her signature brand of unsettling-yet-headstrong R&B.

Adeline, Stages, Promotional Image

Why We Like It: Adeline’s “Stages” Ft. KAMAUU

Through a calm authority, Adeline expresses her freedom. “Stages” is an easy-going R&B song with a groovy bassline and a rapped verse from KAMAUU.

Lxnny, Promotional Photo, Lamborghini Racers

Why We Like It: Lxnny’s “Lamborghini Racers”

Lxnny sends us on a trip through another life by stepping into the shoes of a kingpin. “Lamborghini Racers” is a wavy listen that drifts on chimes and a smooth flow.

Nami, promotional photo, Who Lied To You

Why We Like It: Nami’s “Who Lied To You”

On a concept project about writing and producing demos for Drake, Cape Verdean crooner Nami nails a sound that’s all his own. “Who Lied To You” wouldn’t be out of place for a worldclass popstar, but it’s an unforgettably synthy demo.

Viana, Promotional Photo, About the Money

Why We Like It: Viana’s “About The Money”

On “About The Money,” Viana mires an earnest want in a consumerist sheen, creating a pop song of depth. She just wants to sing songs and feed her dog. Should that be so hard?

Tall Black Guy Ozay Moore, Runnin Away, Promotional Image

Why We Like It: Tall Black Guy & Ozay Moore’s “Runnin Away Ft. Malaya”

Tall Black Guy and Ozay Moore confront some of the hardest truths on “Runnin’ Away.” Bookended by spirit-gripping hooks from featured vocalist Malaya, the verses question the wisdom of fleeing from results that don’t line up with expectations.

Dirtsa’s Debut and the Duty of a Writer

‘ALETHEIA’S CALLING,’ the debut EP of Franco-Cameroonian artist and philosopher Dirtsa, is a bridge between cultures, ideas and sounds. Pulling from Greek and modern philosophy, the project is a duality of contrasting and complementary R&B and drill sounds. We spoke with Dirtsa about the truths she uncovered in its making.

Mvstermind, Matter of Time, Promotional Image

Why We Like It: Mvstermind’s “MATTER OF TIME,” Ft. Jordan Ward

Over a jazzy instrumental, St. Louis’ Mvstermind and Jordan Ward trace their divergent journeys with effortless flair. “MATTER OF TIME” is a reminder that taking your time isn’t taking time off.

By Conor Herbert

LOOK CLOSELY, Native Son, HUSH FORTE, Van Buren

HUSH FORTE: Looking Closer, Speaking Louder

By Conor Herbert

It’s been a tumultuous year for all, but Broward-born producer HUSH FORTE has rolled with the punches, finding a new home, a new vision, and a new voice – his own. It’s early morning in Manhattan, and HUSH FORTE is just getting home. The sun is out, the traffic stuck, the faint din of sirens rising and falling as they echo through … Continue Reading... about HUSH FORTE: Looking Closer, Speaking Louder
