Mixtape Review: To Be A Star – E-Thrilla

To Be A Star Cover 2 E-Thriller

UK Rapper/songwriter E-THRILLA left me wanting more with his EP, Room For Improvement (featured back in March on NEW LEASE MUSIC). It’s been a long (ish) time but he returns, finally dropping his debut mixtape, To Be A Star.

Did it quench my thirst? Like the EP, Room For Improvement, his trademark of sweet atmospheric melody was featured in  his latest project but there’s a stronger punch of hip-hop with the presence of electronica  and disco. Each track documents the Mancunian’s determination to make it big time.

So to answer the question, To Be A Star sure did quench my thirst and if you’re always in search of hip-hop tracks that push the boundaries, well I’m sure this mixtape will hit the spot.

EP Review – Room for improvement – E-Thrilla

Ethrilla Room for Improvement

UK rapper/producer/songwriter E-THRILLA is determined to take hip-hop to another place through his EP Room For Improvement, released last month.

In this 3-track production, the Manchester-based artist incorporates the genre with refreshingly-light and echoic modern melodies, as featured in Simple and Ready. Romance Is Dead brilliantly samples PALOMA FAITH’s single of the same name, which is infused with his trademark of that modern, slightly sped-up simple and light undertone.

Room for Improvement is an EP that leaves you wanting more. With such innovative approach to hip-hop, it’s intriguing to see what E-THRILLA will do next…so stay tuned for more updates!

For now, have a listen to Room For Improvement (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED)
