bludnymph returns with “Lights Out” visual – Aipate

Posted on


Emerging Canadian artist bludnymph continues to showcase her rap-infused dark-pop sound with a new single. The song is called “Lights Out”; it arrived together with a riveting visual. Directed by Kathryn Jankowski, that video looks and feels spooky.

“I like to get out my evil, darker side with my music – I channel it so I can keep being nice & not get angry at people,” says bludnymph. “It’s nice to be mean & aggressive in my music as an outlet so I can work on setting boundaries better in my personal life.”

Catchy and energetic, the song oozes sweet fury. The singer-songwriter’s writing and performance are nothing short of sterling.

Listen/watch “Lights Out” and follow bludnymph on Instagram.



PongoFromTheS is flying high in his afrobeat hip hop single, Boeing – Independent Music – New Music

Posted on


Fusing the colourfully galvanizing zeal of Afro Beats with the grit and soul of old-school hip-hop, the French-Canadian artist, PongoFromTheS pumped plenty of energy into the standout single, Boeing, from his 2022 album, AIP (Alone in Public).

The versatile 12-track release is a testament to how far he’s come since launching his debut single in 2015. Along the way, he’s collaborated with internationally renowned artists and producers; on the basis of the party-rocking but lyrically-rounded single, Boeing, it is only a matter of time before he’s as accoladed as the likes of Zaytoven and Denzl. You’d be seriously hard-pressed to find another urban underground artist who pours as much innovation into their layered instrumentals that become an euphorically complex platform for his charisma-driven bars.

Boeing is now available to stream on Spotify.

On January 5, BIGHIT MUSIC released a statement kindly asking fans to refrain from sending letters to the training camp as well as visiting the site on the day of his recruit training graduation ceremony.

Read the full statement below:

Hello,

This is BIGHIT MUSIC.

Thank you to all the fans who always give their love to BTS. Thanks to your kind consideration and support, BTS member Jin has entered the military in December and is now performing his duties responsibly at the training camp.

Thank you for showing your interest and support on the day of his enlistment. We would like to share additional information for fans to keep note of throughout Jin’s military service period.

Jin is stationed at a training center designated specifically for military training together with regular military personnel.

We ask that you please refrain from sending anything by mail. BIGHIT MUSIC will assist in making sure that Jin is able to check himself all the warm messages that fans leave on Weverse using the hashtag #Dear_Jin_from_ARMY.

Please refrain from sending letters and gifts even after he finishes his military recruit training and gets stationed at his military base.

We would also like to ask for your cooperation during Jin’s recruit training graduation ceremony. In order to prevent any issues that might occur from crowding, we ask fans to please refrain from visiting the site. Instead, we ask you to keep your heartwarming words of support and farewell in your hearts.

We ask for your continued love and support for Jin until he finishes his military service and comes back in good health. Our company will also strive to provide all support he needs during this time.

Thank you.

BTS’s Jin enlisted in the military on December 13 as an active duty soldier.

Ups and Downs: Mcubed makes everything rather clear on Who Am I – Independent Music – New Music

Posted on


Sailing on flight mode and letting his crisp flow guide us into the dreamy clouds above, Mcubed avoids the fake glitz and shows us why the underground has the best music on Who Am I.

Mcubed aka Brandon Johnson is an Atlanta-based, Oklahoma-born indie hip hop artist who grew up rapping with his cousins and hasn’t looked back since.

”Filled with inspiration, he continues to intuitively come up with hooks to songs that he writes and records for the world to hear.” ~ Mcubed

Overflowing with confidence and soaked in a self-aware mentality, Mcubed is that electrifying ether through the speaker we all needed to sink deeply into. This is quality hip hop like it should be. There are smooth-as-ice bars here to keep even the most hardened rap cynic happy here.

Who Am I from Atlanta-based, Oklahoma-born indie hip hop artist Mcubed is a thunderous effort made with magnetic proportions many simply can’t comprehend. Laced in a firm fibre that has trigger-inducing raps to learn from, we find a terrific single which is sparked full of a track with excellent written all over it.

Tune into this fine new single on Spotify. See more on IG.

Today (Jan. 1) is the final day of Kwanzaa, Imani (or, “faith”): to believe with all our hearts in our people, our parents, our teachers, our leaders, and the righteousness and victory of our struggle.

With a heavy heart, it was announced that Memphis rapper Gangsta Boo tragically passed away today. Née Lola Chantrelle Mitchell, she was a member of the influential Three 6 Mafia, which also included DJ Paul, Juicy J, Lord Infamous, Crunchy Black, and Koopsta Knicca among others (Lord Infamous, also a nephew of DJ Paul, passed away in 2013).

Boo would leave Three 6 Mafia in 2002, continuing her solo career and releasing several albums and mixtapes. In recent times, she would collaborate with a variety of musicians, including Latto (on “FTCU“), Run The Jewels (on “Walking in the Snow“), JunglePussy (on “Stamina“), and newcomers such as Hannah Monds (“Big Momma”).

She was only 43 years old.

The Moving Stills present “Better” – Aipate

Posted on


Australian band The Moving Stills have a new single that I found found refreshing The bright and fuzzy indie-pop tune is christened “Better”. Musically, it’s an engaging blend of guitars and synths.

About “Better”, band member Tommy remarks, “It’s a story about seeing the good despite the challenges in a relationship. We wrote ‘Better’ about that and how having someone in your life that you care about is a great thing. Focusing on how the other person makes you feel. Even when you’re missing them, knowing you’ll see each other again creates excitement.”

Batten down the hatches, Below Bermuda is back with another rip-roaring slice of alt-rock, Wings – Independent Music – New Music

Posted on


After a brief recording hiatus, the international alt-rock outfit, Below Bermuda turned up the temperature with the blazing hot funk-dripped riffs with their first release since 2018, Wings. If you’re sick of four-chord rock, dig right into the complex rhythmic patterns in this hit that will dizzy you into mesmerism. Although you might want to batten down the hatches first, Below Bermuda is about as unreckonable as the Bermuda Triangle itself.

The Rise Against vocal reminiscence and melodically hooky instrumentals in the choruses around the frenetic punk rock pacing in the verses create a track that keeps on giving. After one hit of Wings, I knew that Below Bermuda is a band well-worth catching live. Their animated energy that pulls it together just enough to create a tight AF performance will undoubtedly make for an unforgettable live experience.

It just so happens that before lockdown crimped their touring and recording plans, Below Bermuda rip roared through venues and festivals in the UK, earning themselves the accolade of one of the hottest live acts on the scene.

Wings is now available to stream on Spotify.
