Etta Bond – #bad4me, 4U, & Met Him Visuals
There has not been a single Etta Bond that I have not felt to my core, in the smoothest way. Since baring her truths and shedding light to the ongoing discussion about gender roles and the liberation of women through her jam Seen & Never Heard, Etta has been on a wave. Really, she has been dropping gems on us at random since last year, but we now have a few of them, back to back. The soothing #bad4me is the third of the slew of new songs she’s unveiled over the past two months, with stimulating imagery to match. Each is a collaboration with random producers she called for…

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…

YOUR HEART IS INSIDE. REVEAL YOURSELF. Are the words written as a message attached to a box Plewto Smith journeys toward in the latest visual from his #PUSSY (Pure Urban Sensual Satisfying Youngin) EP. This project is one of my favorite fresh listens of the year. He exhibits pure, originality that makes me excited to see and hear more from him.You Don’t Know Me is one of the powerful songs I felt from his vocals alone, and the video for it stuns as his “paper heart” is revealed. Check it out the intriguing visual for yourself below! PlewtoSmith.com plewtosmithbees1.bandcamp.com soundcloud.com/plewtosmith You Don’t Know Me

Clayt – Third Eye Visual
Clayt is a Virginia native who was inclined to sports growing up, then fell in love with the art of words and rhyme. As he discovered his ability to write his own lyrics telling his perspective, he realized and made his mission to spread positive messages through his lyrical gift. He hopes to “inspire others to believe in themselves, and focus on the highs rather than the lows.” Making it clear that he’s more than a rapper, he want to help establish art culture in Virginia that he felt was missing in his youth. You can feel the strength of his passion with one listen to his single Third Eye,…

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…

Purple Ferdinand – Love Bound EPs & Video
Purple Ferdinand seems to be on a roll making new music since her Dragon Fly EP came out last year. She follows that up with Love Bound EP and a remixed version featuring beats from Sango, Lapalux, Andrea, and Fakear. Purple Ferdinand might have the most calming singing voice I’ve heard. My favorite is In My Dreams. Watch the beautiful video for the song and stream both versions of the EP below. You can also purchase Love Bound on iTunes or Amazon & Amazon (Remixed Version).

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…

ValDagrain – Easy Feat. Son Lux
The new visual from Val DaGrain takes my love of this song from his 2 Cents EP to the next level. I am ever grateful for music with messages as important as this. I respect and appreciate those who are able to articulate themselves to touch us with ideas that might be commonly experienced, but are not commonly addressed out in the open. It is a bit rare to see a music video that closely follows and enhances the song it features, which is one of the many reasons why I like Easy so much. Take a moment to watch this beautiful piece below to understand just what I mean…
