Californian producer and hip-hop artist J LNDN returns with his second single, ‘Paper’ released through the label Subtone.
Drawing influence from Big Sean, Kendrick Lamar and XXXtentacion, the young rapper released his fiery debut single ‘Like Me’, accompanied by a music video at the end of last year. Since its release, ‘Like Me’ has already gained over 30,000 streams on Spotify and received a sign of approval from the likes of Here Floyd, Top-40 Charts – and of course, NEW LEASE MUSIC.

Michael Dowd, otherwise known as INTELLECT, proves that hip-hop has a soft and delicate side through his track entitled ‘Then There Were Two’.
With spine tinglingly enchanting soundscapes, which match perfectly with the Florida spitter’s smooth NAS-esque flow, the single chronicles his unflappable infatuation for a love interest.
‘Then There Were Two’ is off INTELLECT‘s album, ‘Out of Left Field’, released last October. Reminiscent of Nas’ 1994 album, ‘Illmatic’, ‘Out of Left Field’ has placed INTELLECT as one of the top rising artists and best new music on Reverbnation.

It took three years for Canadian band GOLD COMPLEX to perfect and defined their sound for their latest album, ‘New Soul’.
The album introduces, what can be described as, alternative R&B with a luscious lick of funk featured through single, ‘Homegirl’ and goes on to flaunt between various bluesy/nu soul elements working in unison with the occasional presence of progressive pop/rock with questionably a hint of EDM (heard in single, ‘Meant to Dance.’)
From what I can remember, ‘New Soul’ is a slight shift from their neo-soul-centred signature, displayed in their previous self-titled album. Although there’s more elements of contrasting tones, the arrangements are still as harmonic as ever – pull together by those killer soulful vocals.
