Earlier this year, J. Cole dropped ‘Middle Child’ and it picked up a lot of traction. KING BLITZ decided to give the beat a shot, spitting his flow over the instrumental, giving it that extra kick.

Album Review: T.H.B – ThBenj
Although it’s been the third or fourth time that THBENJ has appeared on NEW LEASE MUSIC, I will always associate the Italian rapper with track ‘Mumble Acid’ because of its infectiously rampant b-line and electronic effects on the vocals that gives the extra kick to the three minute sizzler. For that reason alone, I was very intrigued to see what he has cooked up in his solo debut album, ‘T.H.B’, released late last month.
The album possess a few banging tunes that can blow off the roof of any house party through, ‘Chasing Th Day’, ‘Manipulated’ and ‘Feelin’ It’. I have to say, then delving into his new project, I was caught off guard for a moment, as the theme of the 15-track set predominantly feature a more relaxed hip-hop/urban vibe with a kick of infectious b-line, featured in tracks, ‘Paranoid’, ‘Waiting For You’ and ‘ My Prayers To You.’
The biggest surprise was the concluding piece ‘Myself Again’ – an intimate setting with the acoustic guitar taking centre stage. THBENJ switches his usual kick-ass freestyle to a voice that’s so emotive and inviting – I DID NOT expect that at all!
I have to hand it him, THBENJ did a blinding job on this debut project and it comes to no surprise that collection has already clocked up serious attention: ‘T.H.B’ is currently one of the top-selling hip-hop albums on Google Play in Italy.
So hit that play button on THBENJ‘s ‘T.H.B’ below. If you’re seriously into hip-hop, you won’t regret it:

Song of the Day: Change The World – Jamieson (ft. Edmerald)
Described as a storyteller who narrates his life experiences through his music, London-born writer and producer Jamieson JAMIESON, makes his entry on NEW LEASE MUSIC with inspirational single ‘Change The World’. His piano-laced offering aims to make even the most jaded pessimist want to be a better person.
As JAMIESON says: “When I first heard the instrumental for the track, I knew it was a song that I’d have to deliver an uplifting and inspiring message. The main theme of the song is to change the world but I wanted to put the emphasis of having to change as individuals before being able to come together for a greater good. My music is quite biographical and honest I wanted to pen a song that showed what I’ve learned over the years to hopefully inspire others for a better future. This sounds crazy but when I was writing the song I was thinking about if I were to pass away, what message would I want to leave my children or to make them better humans? With that question in mind, that’s how this song was put together.”
‘Change the World’ is the first single from JAMIESON‘s EP, ‘The Light’. Check it out below…
