    BLKSUNCHILD – Low Off The Hii EP (+Download)

    The Low Off The Hii EP is a must-listen which was released by the artist who goes by the name Blksunchild. This album features some superb lyricism. I was immediately impressed when I came across it. Blksunchild is a multi-faceted artist who also creates beautiful original sketches and paintings. I have found myself attentive when listening to each song on this gem. I played it several times after my first listen, only to catch more of his lines. Take in the sounds for yourself and also support Blksunchild’s art and his other music through the links I’ve gathered. Included is the mini-story for a new favorite of mine, Vice City…

    Tiron & Ayomari – The Great New Wonderful LP (+Visual)

    Tiron & Ayomari are doing something really cool with their new album, The Great New Wonderful, one I’ve anticipated since following The Wonderful Prelude parts 1 & 2. I believe these are necessary artists that have come about time because of the enlightening messages they so thoughtfully incorporate into each their projects. I deeply appreciate many of the ideas being explored and questioned throughout this one, including self identity, love, comfort zones, and change -to name a few. It is refreshing to have music to go to which reminds of the good things you are, and of your potential when you feel hopeless and paralyzed by events of life, while…

    Oska Faro – OSKA FARO

    Oska Faro is another dope prducer/lyricist combination, Soft Glas and Rufat. Many of the current artists I continue to feel inspired to feature intrigue me in very unique ways through their sound and overall personality, as well as style felt through the art. And well, I haven’t heard a voice like Rufat of Oska Faro. More than the inflection of his voice, there is a pure originality about this album that makes me happy. These two together perfectly exemplify my idea of this new wave of true individuals who have strong and positive messages to share with everyone. It also happens to, whether intentional or not, embody this generation in…

    Dumplings én China – Wishbone Visual

    Dumplings En China is one of my favorite new and true artists to have come into in 2014. Throughout the year, he has made two outstanding EPs available, along with some uplifting jams which I continue to play to brighten my days. When you listen to them all back to back, it is not difficult to imagine why he has already been courted by Indie record labels both inside and outside of the U.S. His rare and bold approach to each of his songs is what gets me stirring whenever I find myself pressing play on something new from him. I don’t quite know what to expect each time, and…

    Teedra Moses – California Vibes EP

    The Young Lioness is back with a surprise EP for her fans! Teedra Moses gave us one of my favorite albums to this day, back when I was a young girl in high school who didn’t see herself as knowing much about love or life and its losses. And even then, I was in love with every track and knew that her debut, Complex Simplicity is something that should be felt by everyone. Keeping in similar tones with her latest self-released project, California Vibes, The New Orleans native has created another masterpiece that curls around my soul ever so snuggly. Every word expressed rings at elements of my own life,…

    Lion Babe – Jungle Lady Visual

    After two teasing years, the first official Lion Babe EP has arrived, and it delivers a refreshing helping of new school funk music. The only disappointing thing about this project is that it leaves you wanting more. I think this very special duo picked a fitting time of the year to officially introduce themselves to the world, with all of the other amazing music that is being released lately, from D’Angelo’s Black Messiah to J.Cole’s recent release. The self-titled project includes the future classic (I feel), Treat Me Like Fire, as well as other favorites I have featured previously, Jump Hi featuring Childish Gambino and Intro. With the five track…

    Little Simz – Quest Luv feat. Tilla

    Little Simz is slaying all of the boys, and they don’t even know it yet. In a matter of months, she has dropped a thirteen-track EP followed by two more stunning drops, while she is now prepping a third one. She just revealed the visual for her song Quest Luv, featuring the vocals of Tilla. This track is one of my favorites from her E.D.G.E. EP, which I featured here. In this video, she gets up-close and personal to put this emotional song into perspective. This visual left my mind racing. After the first minute of watching, I found that is both comforting and a bit unsettling that so many…

    Etta Bond – #FML & Feels Like Visual

    I am so compelled to share this one because I just love it whenever Etta Bond drops random goodies for us through her soundcloud. Each one always seems to match my exact frequency at the time, and she was right on cue adding this one. This calming and beautiful song, Feel My Love, was produced by Chris Loco. It comes weeks after her #COOLNEWURBANTALENT project, which also features his production on the instantly infectious Feels Like. She literally gets better and better, which is admirable because I have been awed by Etta’s lyrical skills and vocals for a while now. This melody is like some sweet echo of the classical…

    Lion Babe – INTRO

    I am basking in this recent helping of Lion Babe. The duo just released a new teaser video called Intro to promote their EP. It sounds like it could be the opening track if not just a tease. We’ll be finding out more soon enough. The visual features the stunning front lady, Jillian Hervey, twirling and crawling about while enchanting us with her voice yet again. The production is something story-like in this one. We are show more of Lucas Goodman’s style. They are still a bit mystery and it is nice to see a bit of the vision their creating revealed. Hopefully all of the songs to be released…
