Song of the Day: Creepin – Trinity Square

Following its premier with DJ Target on 1Xtra and the visual release via GRM Daily, Nottingham group TRINITY SQUARE have smashed onto the scene with Instagram going crazy for the video and some of the biggest UK channels, including Hackney’s Finest, Young Kings, The StreetBlogs, imjustthatguy and banterNtalent looking like they can’t get enough of it. The group have also pulled in national radio support and playlists from Kiss Fresh, Apple Music, Pulse 88 as well as BBC Introducing via Leicester, Derby and Nottingham.

A group of five young rappers and singers; Huey, ZIA, YD, B5IVE, and Trizzy VS – TRINITY SQUARE are hitting the radar amongst many emerging figures due to their unique style which is both hard-hitting and smooth. Produced by Stunnah Sez Beatz, ‘Creepin’ hears each of the TRINITY SQUARE members bring a different element to the track to wind it into an infectiously catchy number with a hugely melodic, sing-a-long hook. Varying pace and rap flows meet with harmonic lyrics and whilst each individual stands out with clarity, the combination of all elements works together in perfect harmony.

Their distinct twist of UK Rap and singing compliments the already vibrant UK urban scene and following a number of impressive YouTube releases such as ‘Pull Up’, ‘Gwop & Gwolla’, ‘Cold Summer’ and ‘Fanta’, the guys have built up an admirable opening discography for anyone that wants to discover more….

Song of the Day: Confusion – Lady Shaynah

Following on from the release of ‘Over’, LADY SHAYNAH takes the blog’s hotspot for the first time with stunning single, ‘Confusion’ – taken from her forthcoming ‘Chapter 22’ EP.

The stunningly atmospheric piece is an ode to anybody who has gone through a rough breakup and come out the other side still feeling confused and with a lot of unanswered questions.

Speaking on the release, she says “The relationship was quite perfect. Until… he woke up one day, saying he had a vision of his future wife. He said I didn’t have all the characteristics of said ‘future wife’, but ‘we could work on that’. This felt like a slap in my face. What broke my heart, even more, is that when I gave him the choice of taking me the way I am or leaving, within the blink of an eye, he chose to leave. The more I reflected upon the relationship, the more questions I had and thus ‘Confusion’ was born.”

From the age of five, LADY SHAYNAH – real name  Shanice – was taught to play the piano by her Grandmother and later claimed the title of ‘Music Matters Award Ambassador’ in Rotterdam (2014) and went on to play at the North Sea Jazz Festival (2016) before releasing her first LP ‘Dare’ in 2015.

Now a vocal, songwriting and band coach, LADY SHAYNAH teaches at the ‘Babette Labeij Music Academy’ and ZO! Gospel Choir and is set to release her next EP this year.
