    Princess Nokia – Dragons

    I LOVE this! Princess Nokia, who was previously known simply as Wavy Spice, has blown me away all over again with her singing voice. When I first heard her hard rap on “The Butterfly Prequel” switch to a soft voice, I honestly thought the singing part to be a sample from some beautiful old song that I would never be able to find.

    Danny Watts – Poetic Effusions

    Take a gander through the ripples of my mind. Messenger Series Vol. 1 – Danny Watts This song is brilliant. I haven’t known much of anything about Danny Watts before now, besides his voice and intricate patterns of rhymes the delivers with it. I have been listening to this Messenger Series Vol. 1 for months because I feel it is so p e r f e c t and relatable as a human being. After watching this new visual for his song Poetic Effusions, it is simply my duty to pass it on to you.
