Before 2019 was out, A1 hit the studio and recorded his take on 83 Babies hit single, ‘No Cap’
I have a feeling that 2020 is going to be a year where this New Yorker really steps up his game, so be sure to keep your eyes peeled on NEW LEASE MUSIC for more blazing music from this guy…
As the newest addition to the creative, counter-culture collective known as The Black Opera, Detroit emcee T CALMESE shares some important life lessons in his new J. Bizness-produced single ‘Timing is $$$’.
Before I head out on the last post of 2019, I would like to wish each and everyone of you a very Merry (fun-packed) Christmas and a happy (off-the-wall) New Year.
Be sure to look out for the Top Ten Music Videos, Albums and Songs of 2019, coming very soon!
Brighton-based SUNNY ACHILLE signs out 2019 with the release of single ‘Obsession’
Produced by Kai-A, ‘Obsession’ is about habit and addiction. Sunny explains: “It’s something we can all relate to in some form. We can often break a promise to ourselves and find ourselves escaping in a toxic way. Down the rabbit hole we go with our Obsession!”
Sunny grew up on his mother’s music collection ranging from Jazzmatazz, Lighthouse Family & Seal – to Coolio and The Streets – which led to have a diverse musical palette of his own. Blending trap with dubstep like synths, Achille combines his hard-hitting lyricism with left-field hip-hop elements throughout ‘Obsession’.
‘Obsession’ is out now on all major download/streaming sites. Stay tuned for the official music video in the coming weeks….
Straight out of Brixton, POLITICAL PEAK is back with his unmistakable sound and bouncy flows as he wraps up for winter with final drop of the year, ‘Tell Me’.
Taken from his forthcoming EP ‘Here I Am’, the record is made up of a simplistic instrumental that comes in with an edgy, indie, inspired loop before the layers of drums drop to make way for Peak’s delivery, which command the vibrancy of the track.
Known for peppering out road riddims over the glory years of the Black British Music scene, Political Peak has remained a consistent purveyor of UK Rap. One of the first wave of young rappers that utilised YouTube’s shoot and upload technology, alongside artists such as Sneakbo, Political Peak broke through with singles such as ‘Jetski Wave’, ‘Wave Like Us’ and ‘Touch Ah Button’.
Setting pace this year with numerous releases including ‘7PM In Brixton’, ‘An I’ and ‘As If’, Political Peak’s wave is set to get even higher as his ‘Here I Am’ EP is already lined up and ready to go in early 2020. Making one final statement before signing out of 2019, the rapper continues to keep it real and vibesy with ‘Tell Me’.
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.
