Natalie Green - "ABBE"


After releasing his debut EP, Natalie Green Is My Lover, in 2017, Natalie Green has been dedicating most of his time to assisting his friends with the creation of their music and videos. Fortunately, as 2018 comes to a close, the talented artist returns his focus - at least publicly - to the liberation of his own content.

Green's latest release comes in the form of "ABBE", a record featuring a nostalgic sounding vibe coupled with a modernized energy. One might catch bits and pieces of the song that bring to mind fleeting memories of different classic rock bands - a testimony to Green's ability to find inspiration while still presenting a final product that is distinctively his own. With it's airy, trance-inducing sound, "ABBE" finds a way to leave listeners with a simultaneously active yet lethargic headspace. 

"ABBE" captivates listeners with overpowering production, the sonically gratifying instrumentation forcing Green's vocals to float in the background. By no means is this a bad thing either, as it adds a unique element to "ABBE", drawing even closer attention from the listener as they get lost in the music while attempting to capture Green's lyrical content.

"ABBE" is available now on all major streaming platforms, including Apple Music and Spotify.

Preview the new music below.

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...

Ian Matthew - "Ashtray"

Beyond creating good music, the most vital characteristic in any artist is - in my opinion - growth. And growth comes in many forms but, more often than not, the greatest growth comes from recognizing shortcomings; from falling and getting back up, learning from the highs and lows of the evolutionary process. "Ashtray" is the first joint I've heard from Ian Matthew that makes me feel like dude is truly stepping into his own artistically. And I mean that with the utmost respect. The latest drop from the CT-based artist features Ian taking a few big steps back from a stereotypical, bar-heavy hip-hop sound, instead embracing a smooth style that is highlighted by some passionate crooning. And, man, it works really  well. Backed by some light acoustic production, Ian is able to allow the emotion to emanate from his vocals, capturing the attention of the listener with his raw delivery. There are enough emcees filling records with catch-as-catch-can lyrical prowess, ma...

Grieves - "Let It Through" (Video)

In September, Grieves liberated new music for the first time since releasing his  Running Wild album in 2017 and now the Rhymesayers Entertainment artist comes through with the official visual treatment for "Let It Through". The single denotes both the artistic range of Grieves and the personal growth and self-discovery the wordsmith has been experiencing over the course of his journey here in the physical. Packed with relaxed melodies and a calmly delivered labyrinth of wordplay, the sentimental "Let It Through" is presented with a composed, collected and self-aware delivery. Grieves is experiencing a state of acceptance, finding peace with what is rather than attempting to swim against the current of life.  Throughout the record, one gets a sense that Grieves is learning from - and growing through - the chaos that has encapsulated and shaped his life. It's vital to recognize the importance of documenting the destruction if one desires to showcase the ...
