Janine - "Vacation"


The soulful and sultry voice of Janine has been a favorite of mine since her "and the Mixtape" days and it's always a welcome treat when she blesses the airwaves with something new. Since liberating her debut full-length in May of this year, Janine has been putting in work on various projects outside of her vocal-based music but she returns with "Vacation" this week.

"Vacation", which flips the "Zeze" instrumental into a whole new energetic field, features a solid blend of both blatant lines and innuendos, the alluring combination resulting in a vibey and sexy R&B bop. It's a smooth and airy record that has the potential to resonate deep in the essence of Janine's listeners and will undoubtedly be a fine tune to snug up to this winter with your favorite person.

With the snow hitting hard tonight, this new record from Janine was exactly the vibe I needed to take my mind off the weather and warm up the soul a little bit.

Janine's 99 is available now on all major streaming platforms, including Apple Music, Spotify and Soundcloud.

Hit play on "Vacation" below.

Rudy - No Time

God willing, each and every person birthed into this world will grow up. Some of us may reach an old age, some of us may be called home earlier than others - but, in some form or fashion, we all will grow older.  It's a funny thing, the way our society perceives age. In some cultures, the elders are held to the highest esteem - for they are the ones with the knowledge and experience to hold true wisdom.

And still, we tend to look down upon those who have been blessed to experience a long, full life. Perhaps it's because so many "old" people seem to live a life of regret, looking back on their youth with a mind full of "what ifs" and "should haves". While young individuals are rushing to reach maturity,

Watch Now: Aaron Cohen & Eklips in Paris (Video)

While in Paris - which appears to be one of his homes away from home at this point - Aaron Cohen bumped into Eklips outside a train station. With cameras rolling, the renowned beatboxer proceeded to drop Dipset's " Oh Boy " instrumental as Cohen does what he does best, lacing the France-based musician's rendition of the track with characteristically self-confident quotables.  Check out the off the cuff collaboration below and be on the lookout for Cohen's upcoming RED NEW YORK project.

Raz Simone - "Clout" [prod. Anthony Danza] (Video)

Fresh off the heels of another trip around the sun, Raz Simone comes through with his first visuals of 2018. In typical Raz fashion, the Black Umbrella founder holds nothing back on "Clout", addressing a myriad of subject matter with a confidently calm yet simultaneously aggressive delivery. Simone has always been one of my favorite artists to cover, thanks in large part to the layered presentation of his content. With "Clout", an essay could be composed on both the track itself and the accompanying video - while both seem almost overly simple upon first glance/listen, the song and video cover a lot of ground over the course of five and a half minutes. The visuals are split between two backdrops - Raz being "studied" in a research facility and Raz rapping in the street. The vibe of the production on "Clout" syncs up perfectly with the dreary, simple visual of Simone in the rainy streets...appropriately carrying a black umbrella. It's
