Following her debut EP, ‘SE7EN Phases’: Moonscape, LORELLE HOWARD is back with a video for new single, ‘Everybody Workin’ which boasts some fresh hip-hop hooks with a touch of 90s dance vibe.
Shot in various area in Brixton, the striking production encaptures the track’s lighthearted approach to the daily struggles of working 9-5. The idea was born in Paris with her producer, Blastar (Pusha T, Tyga, The Game…), as a joke and they quickly realized it was all too true and created the track.
It seems A1 isn’t showing any signs of slowing down for the Xmas period. The New York spitter dropped another video this time for track, ‘Coffee’ which serves as the intro for his latest EP, ‘Store Run.’
Graduating at the top of the hip-hop class and headed for the top of the charts in 2019, internet-breaking rapper and social media phenomenon DDG unveiled his full-length debut album, ‘Valedictorian’ [Epic Records].
Following his recent UK visit that saw him drop an exclusive freestyle for Capital Xtra’s Tim Westwood and drop in with DJ Ace on BBC Radio 1Xtra the star took it straight back to Stateside to take over Times Square in New York City for a pop-up meet-n-greet underneath a massive electronic billboard for the launch of his album Valedictorian.
Alongside the album, DDG also dropped the red-hot video for latest single ‘PUSH’. His casual, yet catchy cadence collides with a bold, barely above-a-whisper hook, “Ah push it.” The accompanying cinematic visual sees him turn up once again with slick swagger and spirit, taking over a lavish mansion surrounded by models before flexing his own moves in front of a lavish estate, capturing his vibe through and through. ‘PUSH’ has put up numbers with over 2.8 million Spotify streams and counting.
Witness the hype yourself and check out the striking visuals for DDG’s ‘PUSH’.
Adam Hachey – aka TUNNEL TRAFFIC – gave a sneak preview into his album, ‘Age Of Conviction’ last month through singles, ‘Skip’, ‘I’ll Be Sorry’ and ‘Another Story’.
Now out, the 11-track project, continues on the theme from the three mentioned tracks, with roaring guitar riffs running throughout, giving each track on the collection a 90’s grunge/nostalgic feel.Tunnel Traffic teams up with vocalist and long-time collaborator, Jacky Muñoz, who offers balance to each singles by adding a degree of tenderness against the hell-raising, well executed plucks.
So if you’re a fan of 90s Iconic rock bands like Nirvana, well Tunnel Traffic’s ‘Age Of Conviction’ may very well hit the spot.
North West Londoner JULIAN MIKA‘s latest single ‘Ferrari’ is a dream-trap joint exploring the thin line between what’s real and what’s fake.
At the age of 17, Julian, alongside childhood friend Ryo, formed music group Grand Wa Zoo and dropped two well-received projects under Scope Music Management. Mika now drops his debut solo project ‘LinkPhone’ and with ‘Ferrari’ being the first taste of what’s to come, it’s set to make a statement. ‘Ferrari’ is a melodic dream-trap banger with London injections, drawing inspirations from his favourite heavyweights in the scene such as J Hus, Benji Flow and Octavian. With lyrics like.
Speaking on the track Julian states:
“The lines between a fantasy, a lie and the truth have become blurred. Ferrari’s about navigating yourself within the maze at high speed”.
Born in Rome to a Sicilian mother, Julian moved from city-to-city throughout his childhood before settling in the UK at aged 10. His turbulent background and constant reintroduction to different, unfamiliar cultures and societies caused him to have a warped view on life, often feeling like an outsider looking in. With this perspective that always let him see things from a step back, Julian turned to music as a vice for his unique thoughts.
With support for his previous single ‘Pattern’ from Dummy Mag completely organically, it’s clear Julian’s music appeals to the masses. He’s now ready to level up and make a statement. His forthcoming EP ‘LinkPhone’ toys with the symbolism of a typical ‘burner phone’ representing the simple yet needed link between Julian and his audience. Not only this but it also symbolises the function of what phones are used for at the core, conversation, without distraction from anything else (social media) and Julian wants this to be represented while listening to ‘LinkPhone’.
With talent in music, along with impeccable imagery and style Julian Mika is a be a force to be reckoned with in London’s rapidly evolving scene. ‘Ferrari’ takes us on a journey through Julian’s mind as an outsider looking in and with a full EP set to drop very soon…Check him out below…
