TiDUS – Not Sorry (Visual)
A year since teasing a clip on Instagram, Tidus has finally released his song “Not Sorry” to the world. The song was first featured in the independent film Canal Street, led by great actors like Bryshere Gray (Empire) and Mekhi Phifer. It can now be streamed everywhere, and Tidus has made a visual to complement it. The etheric beauty of “Not Sorry” speaks for itself. I enjoy his enchanting vocals on this one. Being that this is the third of three single releases the musician has released this year, and one of many he has recently previewed online, we can expect more from Tidus throughout the year. His full project…

TiDUS – The Watcher (Visual)
Tidus released his first new song of the year, with a visual to match. In the video for “The Watcher”, he is seen on a California beach with beautiful shots of the sun shining on him. This is another beautiful song from the artist, which uplifts the listener and inspires them to hold faith through the motions of life. Whenever I listen, I feel a flood of light in my being which prompts me to stand up and move. One of my favorite lyrics chants “I don’t compare my life others that’s just nonsense / We all going through a struggle not a Contest/ If it ain’t happen for you…

TiDUS – My Energy Visual
Late last year, TiDUS began teasing his fans with short previews of new music. He then released two songs, Honestly and FYTB. Both singles sparked more anticipation for his upcoming project titled Once Your Believe In Yourself. A couple of months later comes the incredible official video for his latest single, My Energy. Although the artist has yet to share an official date of his new album, it’s common for him to spring his releases on us, surprisingly. We can expect definitely more new sounds soon. This simplistic video features a lone TiDUS, dancing and delivering inspiring words over a self-produced beat. The music true to his style and showcases…

Jhene Aiko – B’s + H’s Visual
While she has yet to make an official announcement of her new LP, nor an EP, Jhené Aiko’s latest song B’s & H’s ignites hope that we will be receiving one, in the near future. The flame grows even more with the new music video. As the world’s many perceptions of women is being called to attention, while also shifting, you will notice there is a new aspect of this topic being focused on, frequently. Online and in person, energy is high with debates related to the subject. As a woman, I find it exciting to have a slew of artists reflecting their angles on such topics in their art.…

Anna Wise – BitchSlut Visual
My ears first heard the wonderful jam that is BitchSlut, back at Anna Wise’s first solo performance at Low End Theory club, late last year. I brought a friend along who had not heard her group Sonnymoon‘s music before, and this friend easily fell in love with the vibes that were provided that night. I also anticipated the moment that would allow me access to this particular song, whenever, especially before a night out with my crew. It is fun way to present such a perspective. The second single from the songstress’ upcoming project now has an official music video, which was shot on an iPhone 6. The pool scenes…

TiDUS – Soon You’ll Understand EP (+Download)
It has been a couple of years since Tidus dropped his last project, New Age, which included note-worthy songs like Delancey, Without a Care, and Apocalypse. He released this prodigious follow up titled Soon You’ll Understand. The EP comes to us via his unique label For The Future, and marks what I feel is the beginning of a authentic movement within music. It would be hard to listen and not be inspired by the originality of this sound. Tidus lyrically looms from his peers, not only through his these dreamy beats produced by Villabeatz and Ed Weathers of Fast Life Society, but also his spiritual perspective. The way he uses…

Saint Tiimbre – Body Moves EP & Visual
As soon as I hit play to take in the sounds of Saint Tiimbre’s latest project Body Moves, the lights dim as some atmospheric dance scene grips my imaginative brain, every single time. The emerging San Franscisco group consists of vocalist/producer Natasha Adore and producers Amp Live and Julia Lewis. This is another collaboration made in heaven, as every other song takes me to similar places. It is a soulfully melodic dance record released through Little Friend Records. Each track has a retro vibe. Keep up with this group through the links and also check out the official visual for the lead song, Body Moves, below.

The Underachievers – Chasing Faith x Rain Dance x Allusions Visual
In preparation for their new album, Evermore: The Art of Duality, The Underachievers released a desert/Vegas themed visual. The cinematic trip of a music video features three songs from the album, including Chasing Faith, Rain Dance, and Allusions. It might remind of a certain Johnny Depp film, Fear And Loathing. Issa Gold regularly reiterates that his intention with music is to speak to those who break the mold and might feel like outsiders and/or depressed and unite the generation. He’s stated, via twitter, that he only raps because it’s the greatest platform to spread his message. Chasing Faith, in particular, grabs attention with those themes and happens to be my…
