Calgary-based hip-hop artist K-RIZ celebrates his signing to Birthday Cake Records by unveiling a new single, ‘Inside Your Love,’ with an accompanying video directed by DaKidT, also known for his video work with fellow Alberta rapper Mouraine. The tune will appear on his forthcoming album, One Way Ticket, slated for release on September 15, 2023.
Having found his stride at the intersection of hip-hop and R&B, K-Riz packs his syllables and vocals with power. On ‘Inside Your Love,’ the dynamo welcomes listeners into his smooth and sensual world. Calling on producer Eddie Pe$o$ to set the vibe, it’s a track fitting for the boudoir, echoing the sultriest of ‘90s-era R&B slow jams by turning a snapshot of fantasy and desire into an understated gem.
“It’s that moment of yearning when you’re high off your lover’s energy, and you’re not shying away from telling them how you feel,” says K-Riz. “The intention was to make a slow and sexy jam with a heavy emphasis on sexy – and I think we got what we were after. I hope this song makes you hold your person a little closer.”
A rare, multifaceted artist who can rap and sing with equal aplomb, on his forthcoming third full-length album, One Way Ticket, K-Riz enters his self-described “Off the Wall era.” Much like Michael Jackson’s masterpiece of liberation, One Way Ticket pulls from an assortment of influences (hip-hop, funk, R&B, and dance) and showcases K-Riz at his apex, glowing with confidence, embracing new experiences, and living in the moment.
Two versions of ‘Inside Your Love,’ including a remix of the track featuring Tea Fannie and Kavali, are out now and can be streamed or purchased today right here…but before you go, why not check out the video for the sensuous single below…

5OMERSET‘s latest single, ‘On With The Show,’ is an acoustic pop song inspired by the Shakespeare quote: “All the world’s a stage and all the men and women merely players.”
Written with Juno nominated songwriter and producer Dajaun Martineau in L.A., 5omerset perfectly conveys the pressure of everyday life as he trembles:
“Curtails close, shed my clothes, drop the act, let out a cry and clear my throat. Take my time, I’ll be fine the world could be mine but I’m about to lose my mind”
5omerset played all the instruments live Gold Standard Records in Toronto, to create a bitter-sweet sample, with the help from legendary musician and engineer Paul Phelan who played the beautiful pedal steel.
So here’s your chance to listen to ‘On With The Show’ and remember – “when the acting gets harder, shut up get on with the show” (5omerset’s favourite line from the song).
