Jo$e Rivera – Another Day

Jo$e Rivera releases a new track “Another Day” featuring Atlanta bred artist Curtis Williams and TCHitz. The track goes really hard with an energetic hook which turns up the place.

 

Quest The Rebel – Shine

Not much is know about Quest The Rebel but I felt his track had to be shared. Rhyming over a very calm hip-hop instrumental on the track “Shine” Quest is definitely one to watch out for.

 

Vic August – Buss It Down

West Australian-born, Northern Territory-based singer, songwriter and rapper Vic August has released an eccentric new anthem with BUSS IT DOWN, his first release via WVS.

The 16-year-old rap-prodigy melds luscious melodies with memorable lyrics and an undeniable charisma on the mic that positions him as one of the countries most promising new urban talents.

Vic August’s distinct flavour and style is on full display on BUSS IT DOWN, with quick-fire flows floating into colourful cadences over the grand trap production, as Vic shows shades of a young Tory Lanez.

BUSS IT DOWN is a moody, enigmatic club-banger that is as catchy and charismatic as it is imposing and room-rattling.

GV – Lil Min

From Brooklyn, parts of New Jersey, all the way to Florida, next generation hip-hop artist, GV is getting radio play whether you like it or not in his cinematic new music video for “Lil Min”.

After his earlier singles, “Exhale” and “Another Hit” knocked music fans off their feet with a one-two punch, he provided fans with a profound, self-actualized confessional detailing social issues and the day-to-day life of a starving artist in the form of “Tunnelz.” Since the release of “Tunnelz,” GV’s career has been a lit wick, each day another inch closer to the stick of dynamite just waiting to detonate in a seismic explosion so large it may just change Hip Hop as we know it.

“GV”, meaning, “God’s Voice,” each line he spits impacts the soul with such ferocity, it’s impossible to ignore the Brooklyn-native’s wit and delivery. His new single “Lil Min” tells the story of a frustrated artist, grinding for years on end in a thankless cycle with no end. There is nothing on the artist’s mind but getting out of the vicious cycle…So much so that he decides to take fate into his own hands. The official music video, created with the help of long-time collaborators, A1 Vision Productions, gives this story a visual dimension. GV and his crew load up in the car, drive over to the radio station, bust right in and put their own music into the system. In and out like clockwork, the crew is fast…but not fast enough.
