About the artist:
Born and raised in Dubai, UAE the singer-songwriter carved out the beginning of her musical career performing across almost every local venue in the city. With her acoustic guitar in one hand and her passion for the arts in the other, she quickly racked up a string of shows juggling between playing covers and a handful of originals, in hope of seeing what her next step would be.
Reaching what she ultimately felt was a plateau in her journey, she soon decided to undertake in creating her first official release with the new and upcoming local producer Rayan. Embarking into a new direction and sailing into a significantly unexplored genre of music in the Middle East, it wasn’t long before the spirit of her first EP, “Alter Ego” came to life.
Bringing her childhood inspirations to the forefront of her music, whilst discussing themes often subdued, Shébani represents the first female singer-songwriter to embrace the challenges of modern day relevance in music whilst embodying the significance of reflection.
Alter Ego:
They say some things are better left unspoken, but with “Alter Ego” the notion is put to the test. How do we decide what things should be said? When is the line crossed when speaking truths? Shébani examines the aspects of turmoil, regret, the lines that define loyalty, and the lines that break them. Enrolling producer Rayan to shape the music behind those topics, the EP peeks through the keyhole of what is unexplored within ourselves.
After a long stint of attempting acoustic and Indie, “Alter Ego” was born when Shébani re-evaluated her musical direction and decided to follow her urban upbringing. Returning to her childhood influences of Contemporary R&B, Pop, PBR&B, and Hip Hop, the aim was put together an EP that represented her journey to date. With Rayan to dictate the instrumentation and lead the production, it wasn’t long before the spirit of the EP would represent the harshest truth; the alternative side to her personality she was uncovering was simply who she was all along. The songs encapsulate the inner struggles of finding the bravery to expose yourself to the world. Rather than lamenting on the presence of a hidden side, the 6 tracks on “Alter Ego” explain the various burdens that come from concealing your true self.
Using dark insipid keys over urban glitch beats, the album takes a fresh swing at redeveloping the modern-contemporary R&B sound of today. Using the unconventional blending of electronic and classical instruments together, the EP intentionally drives at creating a sonic mood of unrest and an atmosphere of neglect.
“Alter Ego” makes us question the intent and quality of our social circles, relationships, identity, and idea of loyalties. The EP forces the listener to decide for themselves the value of gut instinct, and how much they truly value intuition.

Hi, My name is Big Koast. I'm a hip hop artist and producer originally from Los Angeles who relocated to Denver 3 years back. I'm releasing my upcoming album, Never Look Back August 30th, 2016. It's an album that took me almost 4 years to complete, and it's a story about a kid who wanted to live his dreams, and everything that happened in between. And there’s quite a lot that happened that many people can relate to with similar ambitions.

This one's from South Londoner Fabian Secon & it features a top-line from rising US talent Kevin Clarke, the collab was a coming together of 2 artists who had a massive appreciation for each-other.. After releasing 'Falling' & 'Kiss Of Life', respectively..
Working on production with his old man, Fabian has put together a really smooth track here..

Fresh off their two solo studio albums, "COCAMANIA," and "Forbidden Fruit." Cam Archer and Kidd Dryden link back up as StoneXSober to deliver a new EP titled "Free Edibles."

Brooklyn’s latest hip-hop duo, St. Iago, are set to release their first single ‘Never Around’ for their debut album Saint Iago City this Saturday. The brainchild of rapper Caesar and producer Linus, St Iago City aims to tell a tightly woven coming-of-age story through a contemporary hip-hop sound that draws influence from the entire musical spectrum, from house music to old school boom bap.
The lead single, ‘Never Around’, is an experimental track that blends together eerie synths, jazzy vocals, and spoken word to convey the mindset of a man returning home after a long time away. It’s certainly not the catchiest song on the album, but we believe its unique feel will set the stage for the rest of the release schedule. They’ve put months of time and effort into this project and they sincerely hope that it shows in their work. If you enjoy the track, we would be so appreciative if you would share it on your site. A new single will be premiered every Saturday until the entire album drops via listening party in NYC on August 20th. Thanks for your time!
