Faith Walker heart-warming new RnB EP “Head In the Clouds” with Interview

 Faith Walker heart-warming new RnB EP “Head In the Clouds” with Interview

Faith Walker heart-warming new RnB EP “Head In the Clouds” with Interview



No matter what production she’s singing over, Faith Walker’s vocals stick out like a diamond in the ruff. Sharp and effulgent, these harmonies will spin celestially between your headphones, with the final effect being your “Head In The Clouds”. With that being said, these Los Angeles-born/Toronto-raised songstress couldn’t have titled her EP better.



Embarking on this album destines you for an cottony, R&B joyride. Not only does Faith prove magical with her singing; but her command of the early-2000 aesthetic of R&B is equally top notch. She glides soulfully, wafting through production that forwards heavy-hitting drums, and guitar-tinged, chord-waving instrumentation. These elements give “Head In The Clouds” a musical purity and authenticity that is impossible to ignore. Soar into songs such as the title track, as well as “Love By Now”, “Catch My Heart” (feat. Orion Tukal), and “Enough Of Your Love” and the beauty of this album will illuminate; deeming Faith Walker a beacon for the indie R&B circuit. For, if one thing can be concluded from listening to “Head In The Clouds”, it is that this amorous woman is destined for astronomical stardom.

“The Ghetto Needs a Hero” // Too Real drops conscious hiphop jewels with new song

“The Ghetto Needs a Hero” // Too Real drops conscious hiphop jewels with new song



The truth is almost never presented prettily. More times than not, a reality check will not come gilded in gold, but garbed in the sadness and melancholy of its actuality. An artist—who goes by the name Too Real—knows this all too well, and opts to remind us with his poignant, new single, “Ghetto Needs A Hero”: a reality check on the agony of blacks in America. Surrounded by a gloomy, trap beat produced by HQ Beatz, and supported by featured verses from rappers TONE and Noso, this Minnesota emcee unleashes a torrent of truth through heartbreaking bars. Lush minor chords lurch underneath him, as well as his guests, as each one of them give impactful insights on their experiences and observations as a tortured minority in a country that promised them so much more. From rigged prison systems, failed education programs, poverty, gang violence and the history of slavery, these lyricists use their three minutes and twelve seconds to speak on it all. In doing so—in releasing this moving “Ghetto Needs A Hero”—they keep the ugly truth of black oppression in this nation fresh on all of our minds. Voices like these are what move the needle forward, pushing change by impacting culture. Too Real, TONE, and Noso are all achieving that by making meaningful, conscious music that will stand for years to come. With every rhyme they spit, they actually prove that the ghetto does not need a hero. It already has three.

MDAATH releases creative10-track hiphop album “MXD Pt. II” [Music + Interview]

MDAATH releases creative10-track hiphop album “MXD Pt. II” [Music + Interview]



Go into MDAATH’s 2018 long-player, “MXD, Pt. II” expecting another typical, trap-rap album, you are in for a rude awakening. Do not be fooled by the clips of “Goodfellas” and “Blow” that commence the album; because the moment this Ohio rapper utters his first word, and that tranquil beat drops, your entire world will be flipped upside down. You will be suckerpunched by the intro, “Grade A”; and this onslaught will carry on for the next thirty-five minutes you are with him. MDAATH harbors his own, unorthodox way of creating a modern rap album. One that can not be easily compared to the artists and sounds that rival him. Granted, this Cleveland talent does dive into the commercial trap aesthetic with the speaker-slamming “Mexico” (feat. Donnell Kane), “Remain”, “Welcome 2 The Dusk”, and “Like That”; these jams are essential to highlighting the individuality of every other piece on the project. They draw your focus to the incredible boom-bap, lyricism and flow of “Ogz”, “Take Flight”, and “Get Up”; making you appreciate MDAATH’s noteworthy potential. With his unique subject matter, crossing topics of the streets, yearn for wealth, and praise of God; alongside his shining use of rhythm and melody, many of these tracks strike as songs only MDAATH could create. He absolutely has his own handle of the art of rap; and with the versatility displayed on this radiant “MXD, Pt. II”, he is only a handshake away from a mainstream break.

Christiano Can

"F . A . N . S"


Silky, soulful and smooth. Those three words will be the first and only rebounding through your mind, once play is clicked on Christiano Can’s “F.A.N.S” extended-play. As the rapper’s debut project, “F.A.N.S” seeks to make a grandiose introduction; and it delivers that statement in more eclectic ways than one. First and foremost, the soulful, sophisticated textures of this music make it a awe-striking, pleasant listen from the jump. Golden horns, colorful chords, and a luscious female vocal form a dreamscape out of the intro-track “D.A.F.H.A.H”. Style changes as the tape progresses; with a variety of sounds, rhythms and grooves, erupting from the depths of the mix. Raw, quirky Hip-Hop is at the root of “Oddly Awkward” (Neo-Soul gushing throughout its remix), and pure, undulating Funk bubbling about the final track, “I’m Only Crazy”. Alongside this evidence of Christiano Can’s uniqueness as an artist, there is the overwhelming proof of his competence as a rapper. As the EP surges on, Christiano draws from myriad flows. On the track, “Oddly Awkward”, something Eminem-esque is transpiring; with our genre-rapper having the lyrics to do it justice, as well. He is nonchalant on the remix, smooth on the intro-track, and energetic on the out. As sporadic as “F.A.N.S” is as a body of work, it is immensely impressive and certainly satisfying. All over it is the mark of true musical artistry; and we can do nothing but look forward to Christiano Can’s drops on the 5th of every month this year. Fingers crossed, they’ll be as jaw-dropping as this.
