Review: Boy Meets World – CoryLz

Boy Meets World

1. Look of Love
2. Bank

4. Flexxin
5. Alphabet Soup
6. Bars
7. Expressed Regrets
8. Commence
9. Mash Potatoes

15. Sheet Rock Soul

At the age of 22, Cory L. Houston – aka CORYLZ– already has a collection of mixtapes under his belt.

Exposed to different types of music from a very young age, this Tennessee rapper chose hip hop as ‘a main musical style of expression.’ But it wasn’t until he showcased his talent at a local party in 2005  that he was more than serious in becoming a hip-hop artist.

Without further adieu, he churned out eight mixtapes: Starlight (2005) Deep Boyz Anthem (2006); Liven Dead (2007); Era 21 (2008); Real World (2009); Heartless (2012); Cold Hearted (2012) and  more recently Boy Meets World (2013)

Released last month, Boy Meets World feature some serious super raw/rough sex lyrics with smoother-than-chocolate/after hours beats – just have a listen to Melody Rapture and Mash Potatoes.  I have to say that Boy meets World is not all about raw/rough sex lyrics, as  the mixtape also shows a vulnerable side to the rapper. This upriser delivers his spoken word/baby-i’m- so-into-you raps in the angelic, super smooth Look of Love.  Unread Letter shows his hurt  he suffered from his lover over that super smooth drive. His on-pint spoken word raps returns in the heartfelt track  Sheet Rock Soul which gives an insight of this young rapper’s rough upbringing and problems he had encountered in his short life.

CORYLZ hopes that his talent would one day gain interest beyond his hometown. After listening to the mixtape, I think that time is coming real soon for this hot hip hopper. Check out Boy Meets World here.

Star Song: Millionaire – Two4One

Two4One

Check out today’s song, Millionaire by TWO4ONE. This track is coming from their album Bargain Basement Shit, released in March.

TWO4ONE consists of Dutch Young ( described as The, Man, The Myth and The Legend) and Belligerent. Together these hip hop duo bring to the table the fashion forward beats with lyrics that’s relatable and definitely speak to your soul. Within a year, the combination of head-rolling beats and clever but hard-hitting wordplay took these guys from small bars in their hometown Missouri to the airwaves in Alaska.

Well have a listen to Millionaire, as this track just displays that these guys are steadily going places. With laid back raps that grooves with the smooth, easy-cruising bassline, it won’t be surprising that they will go way beyond the Alaska airwaves in no time.

So if you’re digging this track, head over to their Bandcamp page and check out the album.

Star Song: Smiley Face – Aimi D

Aimi D

Now here’s something that will keep you going for the weekend! Open your ears to this bad-boy of a tune – Smiley Face – by AIMI D

After studying musical theatre, training with jazz vocalists and singing for rock bands, this British-born pop-princess – whose real name is Catharine Dinsdale – was more than ready to break out as a solo artist. She started penning songs which formed her debut EP Who Is She? Released in June 2012.

Her style of music is best described as simply playful, feel good pop infused with electro-dance that will put a spring in your step and put a huge smile on your face- well just listen to the first single of the EP, Smiley Face. Released in July – perfect timing I must say)– this fun, bubblegum pop/dance production is well suited to bars and clubs in the party land of Ibiza.

Has Smiley Face put you in the party mood? Well head over to ITunes and check out her other fun-packed tracks. Enjoy – I sure you will!
