  • Prepare To Be Blown Away By Emma Bieniewicz’ Vocals In “Lavender Hue”

    Emma Bieniewicz is a 20 year old indie/pop singer-songwriter from Ada, Michigan. Equipped with an angelic voice and a range to die for, Emma is on her way up. Along with writing music, Bieniewicz is currently a full time student earning her Bachelor of Music in Violin and Viola Performance. Her release “Lavender Hue” is a beautiful and hypnotizing motif. Her first two singles are a precursor to the EP that she is hoping to release later in 2019. The soft guitar melodies and light piano backings take you on a journey. At just over two minutes, Emma is able to completely send the listener into a trance with her heavenly tones. “Hold on to me now, you’re the one I can’t live without” is a vibrant lyric that perfectly describes the meaningful love and powerful feelings behind every single written word through this track. I believe that Emma Bieniewicz has an ear for musical sounds that are well beyond her age. I hope this is a good indicator of what’s to come from her much anticipated EP later this year. “Lavender Hues” is transporting and relatable and is an incredible start for what is yet to come from Emma Bieniewicz, brilliant up and comer. Listen to "Lavender Hue" here and get to know more about Emma Bieniewicz below! Hi Emma! Can you start by telling us more about yourself Thank you so much for wanting to chat! I am 20 years old and based in Ada, Michigan. While I am fully passionate about singing/songwriting, I dedicate a lot of my musical talents to classical training in both violin and viola. I am currently earning my Bachelor of Music in Performance on both of these instruments. Aside from music, I am a major antique/vintage junkie and love adopting treasures that had hundreds of other lives before this one. Your voice is beautiful, how long have you been singing for? How lovely of you to say, thank you! I have been singing for as long as I can remember, but I only began taking it seriously once songwriting became a hobby of mine around six years ago. What got you started in music? My dad is a singer-songwriter and plays drums/guitar. I have grown up in a musical household and latched on to that interest. What’s the meaning behind the lyrics of “Lavender Hue”? ‘Lavender Hue’ is a song that actually has a subtitled dedication “for Lake.” I wrote this song for my angel of a boy and how he makes me feel. It was inspired by a specific night we spent camping on the beach in the cold and pouring rain. The sky that day was lavender-gray in color, and the sun was peeking out behind a veil of misty clouds. It was gorgeous and he is gorgeous. This song is Lake’s song. What theme can we expect in your upcoming EP? The theme of my EP is kind of hard to pinpoint. It’s a span of feelings that encompassed me during my teenage years. It’s an emotional cleanse of the sadness and hurt, the love I feel so deeply rooted in, and me learning to love the person I am. To me, this EP feels like pillows, smells like wet moss, and sounds like a leaky faucet.

  • Jayneto Gives Us A Heart-Rendering Rap Hit “Closure”

    Jayneto, born in 1998, began doing music between the early ages of 9 and 10. His uncle was a church organist, and used to play music. He’s actually the reason Jay writes his music now, serving as a big inspiration for him. Throughout the years, Jayneto progressively got better, and released projects including “Sierra Ep”, “Hell fire” “Diablo” & “Reflection”. He sadly decided to take them down however from all streaming platforms due to quality reasons. Ever since then, Jayneto has been constantly working and evolving himself as an artist. Jayneto released his single titled “Closure” and it began with an introduction that displayed dialogue of a woman’s voice, providing comfort for Jayneto. This was delivered in a light sensual manner, hinting the possible theme of what this record would be about. I loved the refined and hypnotic beat. It created the perfect vibe for you to get lost in the music. You’re mesmerized by the production, but you’re in-tuned with the lyrics. The theme of “Closure” showed similarities to the message of heartbreak. In my opinion, Jayneto vents to us. Tells us how he truly feels, and uses this song as a personal diary for him to become vulnerable, and sensitive. The hook was dope. “ I just need some closure, soon I’ll be pushing a rover”, the hook sings. I liked how Jayneto still demonstrated personality in a sad-like rap song. It was metaphorically witty, and even memorable. “Closure” is a nice vibe song for anybody who's feeling melancholic, and wants to gain the confidence to hop out their feelings and into a bag! Listen to "Closure" here and get to know more about Jayneto below! Hey Jayneto! You’ve established yourself as an artist through various of different releases. Which of your past projects has been the most impactful for you and why? I think the most impactful was probably my “Reflection album” essentially. Even with it being a bad quality album, I put in a lot of hard work on it. I’ve had nights where I didn’t sleep until the next night working on it. Plus, I very tenacious about it. Even after coming & leaving from work I was only thinking about that album because it was about me personally. & I talk about my life most of the time. That album had people crying and Dming me telling me to keep making music etc. I had a kid tell me that I saved her from killing herself & from that moment on I knew that album was very powerful & when I took it down it broke a lot of hearts but I did it for me and came back stronger and better. “Closure” seems to have a strong emotional content behind it. What was this song about? closure was about a very toxic relationship along with how I grew up. In the song I mention finding a noose, and thought about killing myself. I was so low at that point in life I wanted to end it all. But after hours of thinking & staring at that noose I realized I had so much to live for. As far as the relationship, I’ve had a female I was deeply in love (a few of them) give me the sharp end of the stick so many times. But, now that I’m doing better in life they’re coming back asking for my number and stuff like that. So, that’s what that was about. It was a hard song to write about but I did it & I'm very impressed with how I did it. Was there anybody on your mind in whom helped you write this record? Nobody help me write this record I wrote all of my songs. My producer Todd made the beat though shout out to him. How has your sound and artistry in “Closure” elevated since your first release? I use rap with only one flow. As I started getting better and better I started to find different flows and start singing. I use to rap really really fast because I thought the faster you went the better you were but that’s not the case. I would say I found my sound officially around 16 or 18 years old. But that’s okay, it takes time it doesn’t happen over night. What’s the next step for you ? My next step is to finish this new body of work I’m planning to release mid fall. Tour locally, & to have more of my songs on bigger Spotify playlists & have more blogs write about me.

  • Unanswered Releases Gripping Single “Bag of Bones”

    Unanswered is an up and coming hip hop artist from Michigan. Despite being a hip hop artist, he is influenced by some rock genres and bands such as Motionless in White, Linkin Park and early Three Days Grace. He reflects on some morbid attributes and the darker side of his life. “Bag of Bones” is the latest single release by Unanswered. This is truly a haunting track with a dark vibe. The beginning begins in hushed tones, juxtaposed by an abrupt scream, before returning to his under-the-breath hushed tones. This really does invoke something out of a horror flick, and paints a truly ominous picture. Other than these obvious stand-out elements, the beat is well produced and the lyrics are delivered with confidence and style. This track is definitely more of an experience than most, invoking some quite scary elements not typically found in your everyday hip hop artist. Lend Unanswered your ear and give his single “Bag of Bones” a listen! Listen to “Bag of Bones” here and get to know more about Unanswered below! Thanks for catching up with us! Can you talk a bit about your background and how you first became involved with music? I had an isolated background growing up. So I held alot of emotions in which was not healthy. Shortly after , I gravitated to rock music after listening to Animal I've become by Three Days Grace. I heard that song for the first time when i was 6 and it changed my world. I was always surrounded by hiphop/rap but rock just for some reason resonated with me like no other. I was a kid who didn't feel comfortable expressing himself in a environment that goes against what interested me. That was the hardest pill to swallow . In my midteens I gravitated to the emo/screamo bands like ptv , bmth , and ext. They hit my soul in the right place by them talking about the same things that I would go through. Who would you say your biggest artistic influences are? I would eagerly say Teamsesh , Xxxtentacion, Chris Motionless , TDG and of course Marilyn Manson. Can you talk a bit about your writing process? How does everything fall into place? My writing process involves me combining my aesthetic and my experiences , then making an art out of what stands out to me. I would normally listen to my favorite bands and some alternative rap that's on the darker side. You definitely nailed the haunting and scary vibes with your single, “Bag of Bones”. Did this style always come naturally to you or did it evolve more slowly with time? The style came naturally due to me holding in my emotions . Then being reluctant to openly and loosely express myself in the darker manner. I create art from the heart. It's just that simple in my opinion. What can we hope to see from you in the future? You can hope to see my LP King of the dead along side of Bag of bones pt 2. Connect with Unanswered on social media www.instagram.com/imunanswered www.facebook.com/Teamunanswered

  • Kole Releases Powerful New Single “Shogun”

    Kole, born and raised in Morgantown, West Virginia, is a hot new pop/R&B artist with a lot to offer. Growing up he experienced personal struggles that he would use music to help cope with. However, he found that there was simply not enough music that he could connect with. This gave him the ultimate motivation to start creating music that people could relate to when needing some extra support and motivation. In an interview Kole has said “My goal as an artist is to create the songs I felt were missing when I was going through good or bad times in my life. The reason I want to be that is because I know I am not alone in feeling that way from time to time.” Kole is a sympathetic and thoughtful artist who incorporates meaningful and inspirational content for his fans. “Shogun” is Kole’s newest single that dropped on May 1st, 2019. The title of the track “Shogun” resembles the ruler of feudal Japan, who happened to be extremely powerful and overseeing. Kole sings “I am the Shogun, I run the show now, don’t even bow down”. He finesses through the song with confidence and fervor, giving the listener a rush of courage and fearlessness just as an actual Shogun. The title relates greatly to the lyrics and feel of the song because it is composed in an alluring yet powerful manner that really puts listeners in an elevated mindset, which will instantly boost morale. Kole’s good vibes are contagious, so I recommended that you put him on next time you kickback with friends for a good time! Listen to "Shogun" here and get to know more about Kole below! It's great to chat with you KOLE! Can you tell us a bit about yourself? Thanks, you too! Well, I'm a biracial kid, originally from the small town of Morgantown WV. I grew up with a mom from Brooklyn, NY, and a dad from Clay County, WV. So, I'm mixed-mixed.  I moved to California at 18 to pursue a music career as a drummer, and one thing kind of led to another. Following through on that career path landed me where I am now, making my own music verses playing in a band for someone else.  I loved doing that, but I just kind of knew it was time to do my own thing. Your new single is FIRE! Tell us about the meaning behind your single “Shogun”? When I was younger, and even still today, I had this massive obsession with Samurai and Japanese culture, in that time period. A shogun was the highest-ranking officer that reported to the emperor, but because of how things where set up and ran, he was really the highest point of power at the time. I am the shogun of my own life, and so are you, under the direction and counsel of whatever you hold as the emperor of your life (God). I also explain throughout the song, that we are the best version of ourselves possible. If you try to imitate me, you'll never compare. The only person that can ever be the best at what you do, is you. So, when we live our lives in imitation mode, we sell ourselves short of the position of power and leadership we have within ourselves at all times. That is where the true shogun-esque confidence comes from. What was your writing process like with “Shogun”? Shogun came to me and my producer kind of on a whim. We were sitting in the studio and he started making this beat, and I started freestyling, which is where we came up with the first verse idea initially.  Then, over an hour or so we sat thinking of how to tie it together. I was on Instagram, and one of the samurai pages I follow popped up. It was just an instant lightbulb of how to say exactly what I wanted, in a way people haven't heard before. When it comes to writing music, what is your biggest inspiration behind the lyrics? I remember being a young 18-year-old kid, back in town, visiting WVU, attending a Kendrick Lamar concert, and realizing what “Swimming Pools” was actually about. How heavily that hit me. I remember thinking like, “Damn, this whole time we've been drinking and getting lit to a song that was actually about the negative influence of society, that teaches us in order to have fun you need alcohol. At that moment, I knew, that if I ever did make my own music, I wanted to speak just like that. I wanted there to be a base level of understanding and a deeper meaning in everything, so, when people really listen and get to know my lyrics, it really impacts them, because it’s easy to see them one way. When realizing the real meaning however it hits different like seeing the second picture in a double-sided painting. Who would your dream collab be with? Well after that last question, I feel like the answer is kind of obvious. I actually wrote a song at a J-Cole concert after he stepped on my head while working security. The song was about this temptation I saw a young man go through while being tempted myself and seeing the two ways of handling the “lust” situation. It’s called "Miss Molly," and I have it locked away. I made a promise to myself that I won't release it until I can get Kendrick on it. I can even hear how it would start, and I would never write for Kendrick, but I can just so clearly hear him starting out at the point in the song where the feature comes in with "good golly Miss Molly." That would be my ultimate dream collab, and I have a feeling it won't be a dream for long, hopefully. What's next for you? I have another single that will be a surprise drop very soon titled BOMAN (shogun.2) that kind of is on a similar vibe to kind of ride out and complete this Shogun wave. After that I have an EP about a very personal time in my life that I have been sitting on for a while, waiting for the right time. It’s titled "California H20," and that should hit by the end of the summer, as we are talking through some options of exactly how we are going to release it.

  • We’ve Heard Alternative-Pop Before, But Nothing Quite Like This! Brokecove Duo Debuts "Over It"

    Brokecove showcases their ability, as a duo, to curate music that has heavy influence from both the alternative music scene, as well as the pop music scene we’re used to hearing nowadays. Their cohesion as a duo is undeniable once you give them a listen. Immediately upon hearing their music, we knew they were onto something—as if they are creating a category within another category of the music scene. The alternative pop we’re used to hearing, but with a twist that almost sounds as if they’re adding small elements of RnB into the mix. A risky move for artists to try and combine multiple predominant categories, however Brokecove had no problem at all with this task. Clearly, we’re fans of Brokecove’s music, and we’re a super fan of their latest single. Brokecove exhibits skill in their ability to create the typical chill alternative single we’re used to hearing, mixed with the fun and bubbly vocals and lyricism of pop music. The duo has some pretty insane vocals throughout the song, specifically right after the first hook—they can both easily sing in harmony with one another, and the chemistry doesn’t feel forced, it’s completely natural to the listener. Personally, we’re huge fans of alternative music scene here at BuzzMusic, and listening to Brokecove’s version of alternative combined with key pop elements is intriguing and different to us. Sure, we’ve heard alternative-pop before, but nothing quite like this. It almost seems as if I am listening to a ballad, mixed with the tempo and rhythms of our favorite alternative tracks. It really makes us feel at ease, giving off extremely soothing and tranquil vibes. The potency of heart and passion in this single definitely isn’t overlooked—we can feel the fiery devotion and fury in Brokecove’s voices during “Over It”. “Over It” is for sure a song you can’t be missing out on if you’re a lover of alternative beats. Listen to “Over It” here and get to know more about Brokecove below! Hey Brokecove! Tell our readers a little bit about yourselves! Hi, we are Brokecove! We are an alt/pop music duo consisting of Emily Harbord and Caesar Calimlim based around the Bath area. We met through college and have been gigging and writing songs since the start of our second year. We became a duo through having the same music tastes and basically being clones of each other. As a duo, do you ever find that there are significant challenges in the writing process, or do you feel that you both have the same vision with the production of your music? As a whole, we haven’t come across that many challenges when writing new songs, as we share fairly similar ideas. We believe that everyone who writes songs will always come across difficulties such as lack of material or not having enough. Since we are good friends we are able to overcome these problems as we listen to each other's ideas and no one really takes charge. Is there anything you would change so far in your music career if you had the chance to? As a duo, we have only been together for about a year and so far everything is going great, with 60k streams on our first single ‘Tempest’. Our new single ‘Over it’ just released in early May, and so far the feedback has been amazing! We have been on two European tour’s in the past two years and have done a gig at the 02 Bristol, which we are so grateful for. We love writing songs and gigging together and can’t wait what the future hold for us! Who are each of your key musical influences? Personal? We share similar music taste and both take musical influences from artists like Jeremy Zucker and Chelsea Cutler; who embody the atmospheric vibe, that we both love and try to incorporate in our music. Caesar listens to artists such as Eden as although he is an individual artist, he can create a full sounding soundscape. Emily looks up to many artists like Billie Eilish as she experiments with obscure topics and portrays them from different creative perspectives. So when songwriting we get to know our character and the story they’re telling. What can we expect to see from Brokecove throughout the rest of 2019? Any new singles coming up in the near future maybe (we hope)? We have 3 projects currently in the works in collaboration with other artists, one of them hopefully out soon! This summer we are performing at ‘Funk in the Forest’ festival in Wales and are gigging locally throughout. This September we will be moving to London to study music and continue with more projects to focus on building our social media presence. We plan to gig around London and take full advantage of the sources available for us. Connect with Brokecove on social media www.instagram.com/brokecove www.facebook.com/brokecove

  • Release Radar: “Company” By Connie Ryan Is On Fire

    Music suddenly became an outlet for Connie Ryan, who was catching some waves in San Diego at age 14 and found herself experiencing a tragic circumstance: a heart attack. Later discovering that at the young age of 14 she had a congenital heart defect that resulted in emergency surgery and months of recovering at home. Connie found in this moment her love of writing stories as a little kid, her quiet discovery of a soulful voice and natural gift of playing guitar, would all be the catalyst for healing which brought bountiful peace and energy of healing for herself and others around her. Her first songs were picked up by an indie filmmaker who fell in love with the ironic sweetness and soulful heart of Connie’s music and she has since created a catalogue of music that has gained the attention of Grammy winning producers and artists. Currently working on collaborations as a singer/songwriter along with writing songs for new artists, her ability to connect with R&B’s soulful style and an honest writing style of love, hope, loss and disappointment has shone through to all who hear her songs. Her first EP is set to release this summer, show dates are being set for Fall 2019 and The Cutting Room will be showcasing Connie at a later date that will be announce in late 2019. “Company” is sensual, sultry and alluring that mixes genres and instruments together beautifully. Connie’s voice is powerful and she is able to hit the high notes with style and is able to showcase her talents through the versatility of this track, making it clear that she has a complete love and passion for making music. Complete with a spoken section at the very beginning of “Company” to add personality to this story that Connie is trying to tell. I love the addition of rap part way through the track that adds that Hip-Hop flare to the song. A variety of instruments can be found strewn throughout this mixture of Hip-Hop and Pop that has vocal remnants of Ariana Grande and Beyoncé. The gorgeous harmonies fulfil the vibrancy of this lively and passionate track. “Company” is, in my opinion, a track that would be perfect for dancing with your honey closely and a song that is sure to get stuck in your head. Listen to "Company" here and get to know more about Connie Ryan below! Hey Connie! Your story is extremely touching! Can you tell us a bit more about yourself? I was born and raised in LA so I have such a deep love for the city especially West Hollywood. As an LGBTQ+ artist growing up I always looked up to other artists who weren’t afraid to be themselves. I hope to be that person for others who feel like they don’t belong and to just spread positive vibes through my music! Has having a health scare at such a young age shaped how you perform and write as an artist? I think it definitely has I feel like that experience made me work so much harder for everything and music became my escape in a way so I feel such a deep connection to everything I write and perform. What is the meaning behind “Company”? To me, Company is really just a fun sexy song for anyone who can relate to wanting to be locked away all night with a special someone! What currently inspires you to write new music and perform? I feel like I draw inspiration from everything happening around me and I try to be as open as possible in my music so the listeners can really feel the vibe of the song. My goal for any song I write is that someone can connect to it and be like “Yo I felt that” I think that’s the coolest thing. What can we expect to see next from you in 2019? I’m currently working on an EP right now that I plan to release this summer along with a few singles leading up to that. I’m also going to be playing a few shows in LA so keep an eye out on my insta!

  • Ricky T From The Chiller Gang Released Hit Record “Throne”

    Chiller Gang is a music group who consists of the six members; Ricky T, Chiller Rob, Lil Young Stunna L, Dayvid Gee, MC Jeaze & IAM L.E.O. With the release of their first EP “Chiller Season” back in 2016 Chiller Gang have continued to create music vastly improving their musical ability throughout the years. Coming out of the Bay Area Chiller gang have continued to drop music on soundcloud and made their debut onto Apple Music, Spotify, and other streaming platforms with one of the members Chiller Rob dropping his project “Robichino” back in October 5th of 2018. Although from the Bay Area which is known for the hyphy movement dating back to the late 90’s/ early 2000’s Chiller Gang incorporate the Bay Area style while sticking to their own sound as well. With themes regarding poverty, equality and the daily struggles of low income families, Chiller Gang is a group whose ready to break down their barriers. Ricky T from Chiller Gang released his new song, “Throne” and shows us the definition of hip-hop. Keeping it real, keeping it raw, and keeping it bonafide chiller, Ricky T gives a real lyrical story through his music with a super dope projection and a natural delivery. In my opinion, knowing hip-hop is made up of a diverse fan-base, however the audience most of the time are those from an urban upbringing, Ricky T is able to click, and connect with those with a relatable story as him. This makes him more real than anything. He tells you who he is through his music, and gives you more insight on his background, upbringing, and what he’s made up. It’s all around compelling. I personally love listening to these kinds of songs from rappers like him. No fear of judgement, he gives you the true blueprint on how to be a rapper with a motive. You feel the passion and honesty through the music, and lyrics. Chiller Gang might be the next biggest rap collective to hit our way! Listen to "Throne" here and get to know more about Chiller Gang below! Can you tell our readers about Chiller Gang? The whole meaning behind chiller gang is that we are young individual people of color trying to push positive vibes with our own sound. We input bay sounds & styles in our songs because we are heavily influenced by Bay Area rappers. We have a lot of legends in our area so it’s hard not to be influenced by them, but at the same time we creating a new style of bay music. Chiller gang, is how you view yourself, how you carry yourself, we are young bosses that hustle hard night and day. It’s a lifestyle, it’s like smoking & chilling back type of thing, while keeping you involved within the community. We are on some positive vibes type of thing. We aren't promoting anything else but to be chill, to love, and be cool with everyone that you are surrounded by. In what ways do your styles differentiate from one another? First of all, we all have our own unique sound and none of us sound the same, we may have similarities but we don't sounds the same. When we come together to make music the different sounds we all have just comes together organically and we just know how to compliment each other’s style very well. Like Robichino aka Chiller Rob, he’s more of a lyrical artist the stuff he spits goes crazy all the time, he is all about setting the bars up. Ricky T he’s more of a chill, laid back flow, spitting wisdom and storytelling type of rapper. Lil Stunna L is more of a party pimp type.  He be having you feeling yourself For sure. Chiller gee he can hop on anything and he always has references to sports or shows or whatever it is that is relatable And gets the people attracted. Jeaze is more of an old school type, he can rap quick and have your head spinning at one moment and the next thing you know he can be on some 90s boom bap type. His rap style is very reminiscing of a modern cypress hill, he speaks for La Raza and he wants to use his music as a voice for the positives and struggles of the community, as well as the other members but his way to do it is unique. And last but not least IAM L.E.O.'s style, IAM L.E.O. (Love, Evolution, Oneness) is like a neo soul 90s hip hop and R&B artist, very versatile and Revolutionary, can hit you with a club banger, slow jams for the ladies, trap music from the street, and music to bring peace, love, and heal your mind and soul. How do you guys balance to overcome creative differences between each other? Being open minded that sometimes one of us isn't at 100% that day and we can write some weak lyrics or go off topic, we won't judge well just give constructive criticism. But we don't always overcome our creative differences sometimes we use it to our advantage, for example Chiller Rob can usually come up with lyrics faster so he helps with verses, Ricky T knows how to engineer so he mixes and masters all of our songs. Chiller Gee is good with coming up with topics so we usually follow his topics on what to rap about in our joint albums. MC Jeaze has management skills so he helps us with booking shows and getting us promotions And features like this one with buzzmusic, and the same with IamL.E.O. he has the most experience in the music industry than the rest of the team so he teaches us what we know and helps booking shows. And as for Lil stunna L, well he knows people, he has connections and knows spots where we can shoot music videos and what the latest trend on what people wanna see/hear. We all got something to bring to the table and we keep a balance on what we do. We are all open minded and have group meetings in order to stay on track and keep one another looped in the circle. Ricky mind telling us about your single “Throne”? Can you tell us the meaning behind it? The meaning behind "Throne" is talking about, how you always have to be working/grinding for things you want because no is going to give you anything! And you can’t let the hate or negativity get to you, you just gotta keep pushing! Success comes with failures and struggles first No hands outs feel me, and that I’m just a Latino teen from the rich trynna make a change for my brothers ! What’s next for Chiller Gang? We can't wait to hear what's next! Chiller Gang is currently working on a joint album, Chiller season 2. Along with the joint album we have many music videos for Ricky's Solo Album that is out now on all platforms and for Chiller season 2. We also have Merchandize on the way, T-shirts, Baseball Tees and Hats (all for summer). And lastly we have our own personal website coming this summer as well. Some of the chiller members are also working on a solo project, like Jeaze he is currently working on a solo album that will be set to be released on late Fall/early winter 2019.

  • Trap Stone Gives You A Hit With “Like That”

    Trap Stone is a 17 year old, trap styled rapper from KC. If you’re seeking for something to bang out too in the car with your friends, or even at a party, Trap Stone has you covered! Trap Stone released the single “Like That” and be prepared for this vibe you’re about to feel! The song hooked me the instant I heard it. The exhilarating energy you feel from listening is addictive. However, something I really loved that was elemental about “Like That” was the mystical approach he gave. It was a sense of suspense you felt while listening. The lyrics however, were substantially strong. With catchy bars, if you study the lyrics of the song you will find how Trap Stone still delivers a strong substance behind the fun charisma. It was slightly motivational, in a more in-depth way, opposed to the surface listening of the record. This song was wavy, and I could definitely ride out to this record in my car. Imagine cruising through the city with your friends, listening to a beat that slaps, with a smooth-sailing vocal delivery, and witty lyrics to catch the vibe. Trap Stone could be the trail-blazing hit maker of the current generation, appealing to what’s hot and what’s fresh in the current market of hip-hop! Listen to "Like That" here and get to know more about Trap Stone below! Hey Trap Stone! Tell us about yourself and your goals for your music? I’m a 17 yr old white trap style rapper from Kansas City. I’ve been rappin for a few years but I just started taking it seriously this year. At this point I need better promotion and exposure for my brand and my music. So far my only ‘fanbase’ Or the people that knew what I was doing and listened to my stuff we’re my friends at high school. I’ve gotten good reviews but not good exposure!  I’ve been doing everything I can to research and understand every aspect of the music industry, how it works, what do to if you’re trying to do what I am trying to do and what not to do. My goal is to succeed in the music industry as an independent artist. I really need someone that can answer all of my questions and has experience in the industry. I know I’m doing the right things, I feel like a lot of it is just getting my music in front of the right people, and just like any other business, connections is everything. Who are some of your musical influences? In what ways have they influenced you My biggest influence is probably Gucci Mane. His style always appealed to me and his flow just stuck. Some other influences of mine are migos and rich the kid. The migos message always hit me the right way, it’s hard catchy and all around just good, to me at least! I like playing around with different flows and seeing what I’m capable of! “Like That” was a dope record. The beat was fulfilling! Did you self-produce this song yourself!? I did produce like that myself, I recorded the song on GarageBand but recently I haven’t been doing any recording unless it’s in the studio. I really want a producer that is reliable that I can consistently work with! What were some challenges you’ve faced in the creation of “Like That” ? I guess my biggest challenge was getting the quality to sound up to the professional level. Everything I’ve made in the studio sounds a lot better! Any new anticipating projects ? I’ve been working on music all this year and I’ve narrowed down my first project to 4-5 songs. I’m dropping it on all platforms soon, like that was my debut on all major streaming platforms. What I really want for this next project is adequate promotion and exposure!!!! Connect with Trap Stone on social media www.instagram.com/trap_stone
