Derek Minor - "Astronaut" (feat. Deraj & Byron Juane) [Video]
The world can be a heavy place. Some of us allow the weight of our problems to hold us down. Others set limits on ourselves and what we can accomplish. Astronaut is all about blasting off past those problems and defying the gravitational pull that tries to keep us from reflecting greatness. The astronaut in the song is focused on exploring a new world without limits, he is seeking new destinations, and getting high above the gravitational pull.

Jay Hunna - "Good Ol' Music" [Video]
Jesse Bland aka Jay Hunna is a music artist from the south side of Chicago, IL.
Jay grew up listening to a diverse span of music genres and gets his inspiration from Hip-Hop legends such as Jay Z, Tupac, Notorious BIG and countless others. Jay does not define his music as any one genre of music, but it is commonly heard as hip hop fused over R&B and Jazz tracks.
The inspiration for his debut album "Better Days" comes from the tragic death of his cousin Sandra Bland which sparked nationwide attention in July 2015. Sandra Bland closes out the album on the track entitled "Land Of The Free".
Jay's unique approach to music allows him to create story telling songs that leave listeners with a feeling of joy. Jay skillfully articulates that because one comes from humble beginnings, doesn't mean you must stay there.
“Good music translates in all languages. It creates a feeling of happiness and joy in most people, so I just want to reach every language and give them that experience” -Jay Hunna

Young Bull - "Voicemail" (feat. Christian Sinclair) [Video]
When they were only 15, classmates and former JV basketball teammates Tahmique Cameron and Gabe Fox-Peck began performing at talent shows and recording songs in Fox-Peck’s bedroom. The name Young Bull came as a reference to their hometown Durham, N.C.’s nickname as the Bull City, and anchored by Cameron’s tender vocals and Fox-Peck’s intricate keyboard and production skills, their unique sound- a mix of jazz, funk, R&B, and hip-hop influences- began gaining traction online, while energetic live performances helped capture the attention of local bookers. In 2016, the crowds continued growing, and the duo added Raleigh-based rapper Christian Sinclair to the mix.
Young Bull’s released their debut studio album, Sopadelic, last summer, which earned comparisons to Anderson Paak and the Internet. The album quickly reached over a quarter of a million plays on Spotify, and through regular touring have grown their fanbase from Brooklyn to Asheville. Sopadelic is complex and interesting, but in a way that’s easy to understand and pleasant to listen to, making it feel completely intentional. Super Empty Mag praised Young Bull’s versatility, saying Sopadelic “spans from soulful, quiet ballads to trap songs that wouldn’t sound out of place on major radio” and The Blue Banner Asheville says they have “the perfect mix between soul and swagger.”
When the cops came to shut down a recent show in Raleigh, it would’ve been easy to call things off, but the party wasn’t over for Young Bull. Director, editor, and producer Lance Oppenheim instead turned the whole evening in to a music video for “Voicemail.” The trio drive around the city, and close-up angles make the viewer feel like they’re right there experiencing things with them. Eventually they end up at Waffle House, where even the waitress is intrigued to listen to their music. With the “Voicemail” music video, one thing is for certain: Young Bull never stop hustling, and they never stop having fun.

TY - Discovery (feat. Mikey Mayz) [Video]
TY is back with another banger... ‘Discovery’. This time he enlists the help of a man many consider to be the future of R&B in New Zealand – Mikey Mayz.
Produced by long-time collaborator Willstah, TY’s new song is about a special person he has met, and this is an ode to her - his ‘greatest discovery’.
Scotti Bishop - Huey [Video]
Scotti Bishop is back with a new single “Huey,” and it is nothing like the music you’ll find on the charts in today’s climate. Hailing from a small town just outside of Sacramento, CA, Scotti suffers from the same angst that any young person with ambition feels when they find themselves outgrowing their surroundings. “Huey” was written to express the sense of entrapment that Scotti deals with growing up in an environment where success is equivalent to graduating junior college and settling for the first job that pays slightly above minimum wage. What makes “Huey” standout from the other songs on the airways is the abstract nature of Scotti’s songwriting, the vivid details coupled with the vague references to Scotti’s personal life plays beautifully into the “young and hopeless” tone of the single. Overall, “Huey” is a song that will undoubtedly slap when your friends’ pass you the AUX cord; but at the same time, will resonate with any with anyone who’s ambition is bigger than their opportunities.
Cambatta - God Lived (Devil Dog) [Video]
Just months after the release of the infamously, dark and thrilling "Tupac Murder Confession". The self-deified shaman, Cambatta returns with "God Lived (Devil Dog)," a hard hitting lyrical barrage over Superstaar Beats production to get fans ready for his next full length project. Lyricism over trap beats is a rare occurence in today's melody and dance-driven Hip Hop landscape but Cambatta once again shows why he stands out amongst his peers. Witty punchlines, double entendres and deep knowledge backed by 808s will make your head spin. The new Project LSD will be available this summer.

IYKZ x Maleek Berry - They Know (Wan Mo) [Video]
Rising north London rapper IYKZ (formerly Ikes) is back with brand-new single “They Know (Wan Mo)”, a collaboration with fellow Londoner Maleek Berry.
Written and produced by IYKZ and Maleek, the single is part of the growing Afro Bashment movement and is already a hit on streaming platforms, with almost 150,000 streams on Spotify alone since being released independently only a few weeks ago. The track’s success also extends to radio, with notable support from renowned UK radio DJs Twin Band DJ Target on BBC Radio 1Xtraand Jay London on Capital XTRA.
With the single off to a strong start, IYKZ is keeping the momentum going with the release of the music video directed by Meji Alabi(Zak Abel, Maleek Berry, Sneakbo) for JM Films. Shot in an underground warehouse in Hackney, east London, the monochromatic visuals provide the perfect backdrop for the gritty, hard-hitting street anthem, which also pays homage to the two rappers’ Nigerian heritage.
Speaking on the record, IYKZ says, “‘Wan mo’ means ‘they know’ in the Nigerian Yoruba language. I’m Igbo but Maleek is Yoruba, so we blend both dialects throughout the record. It’s a patriotic street anthem. We want our voices to be heard. We linked up and did everything in Maleek’s bedroom. By the end of the session, we knew we had something special.”
With Maleek producing much of IYKZ’s early material, it’s not the first time they have collaborated or appeared in the same video together. "Working with IYKZ is always magic”, Maleek says of their partnership. “I love working with people who have a deep understanding of music, so it's always bound to be something special when we collaborate."
“They Know (Wan Mo)” is available to buy and stream now and is one of several new singlesIYKZ will be releasing over the coming months. Keep up to date with all future releases and news by following him online:
