K-Riz Shares New Video For Single, ‘What A Shame’

After claiming the blog’s Song of the Week title earlier this year for ‘What A Shame’, K-RIZ circles back and shares the video for the single, lifted from his The Room EP released in late 2020.

Directed by JDats, The Room’s producer and a frequent K-Riz collaborator, the video wades through the stages of a breakup, while visualising the heartfelt regret behind the track. Of the tune K-Riz says, “It’s about wanting to take responsibility for relationships breaking down. Rather than making a song about being a victim, I wanted to own my wrongs.”

Andria Piperni Shares New Single, ‘Settle’

Possessing a hazy moody feel over her inimate soulful jazz trademark, singer/songwriter ANDRIA PIPERNI ponders in brand new single, ‘Settle’ whether if love is worth fighting for.

‘Settle’ sets the tone for Andria’s debut six-track EP ‘Who’s Counting?’, slated for release this spring. Produced and mixed by Chris Vincent (credits include Busty and the Bass, Macy Gray, George Clinton, Nora Toutain), the project underlines a theme of awakening that in many ways reflects the general mood of the past year, as we’ve been forced to face truths like never before.

Song of the Day: Hunting You – Brianna Marie

Bursting with her empowered attitude and bold lyricism, New York-based singer-songwriter BRIANNA MARIE shares ‘Haunting You’.

Her striking voice blended with her captivating dark pop soundscape is put to full effect in the single. Speaking more on the track, Brianna Marie explained:

“‘Haunting You’ is a song I wrote about allowing past love to keep you hostage. Sometimes it is easier to hold on to a ghost than to allow yourself to be alone. It’s like the worst kind of self-sabotage to continue running back to someone who repeatedly hurts you, but we’ve all done it.”

A true force to be reckoned with and artistically at the top of her game, rising artist Brianna Marie creates powerful material that genuinely connects to listeners largely due to the passion, dedication, conviction and commitment that can be heard in every word she sings.

Stretching from the streets of Nottingham, UK, and having accumulated tens of thousands of fans through viral YouTube channels GRM Daily and Link Up TV, S5 dropped his highly-anticipated single, ‘My Year’ at the beginning of 2021.

Produced by Ran & Nash (Toosii, Lil Keed, NLE Choppa), the upbeat single S5 shares the new lifestyle he has created for himself after years of hard work in the studio.
