Born in Zimbabwe, UK raised hip hop lyricist SHUMBA MAASAI is cut from a different cloth. The kind of cloth made for the artist who digs deep into his soul and broadcasts a vibration outside of the norm.
With the new video for single, Soul Seek, Shumba is painting a picture using not only the energy of his unique take on hip hop but also the enchanting vocals of Saffron and the production talent of Holland based deeB.
So go on, have a soothing Monday and check out the video.
CRISIS RENEGADE is not a name you would have heard before, but after listening to his latest track, Divinity Machine, it’s not a name you’ll be forgetting any time soon. The hard-hitting banger is the first taste of his debut mixtape, Seizure Sessions, released earlier this month.
Allowing himself to shine on the 14-track mixtape, which doesn’t feature anyone other than himself, who takes you on a musical journey. Showcasing his diversity and talent as an artist as he puts his own twist on famous beats such as Pound Cake by Drake and Kendrick Lamar’s MAAD, his talents become further amplified as he rides out alone on original tracks like Left Brain and Slide Out.
Spending the majority of his youth in the studio writing and recording his own music, the cultural influences that have come from his emigration from London to Cyprus with his family when he was 13, chink through on occasion, giving a refreshing perspective to his bars.
It’s time to witness a GRIME star on the rise…check out the video to Divinity Machine.
