Hailing from Memphis, Tennessee, the multi-instrumentalist, producer, singer-songwriter, and alternative artist Cole Pryor teams up with vocalist/musician Momantic for their emotionally charged single, "Free Me From My Mind (feat. Momantic)." Cole Pryor is a strong advocate for mental health and coping with domestic abuse. At the mere age of 24, Cole Pryor has endured incredibly troubling and unfortunate experiences, most of which stem from his late father, who sadly ended his life in 2017. Through his cinematic sound, Cole Pryor reminds listeners that our trauma does not define us while also enlightening them on Pryor's personal perspective. Now releasing his poignant and compelling single, "Free Me From My Mind (feat. Momantic)," Cole Pryor and Momantic delve into the depths of despair while wishing to be freed from the inner thoughts and demons that continue to linger. As we plunge into "Free Me From My Mind (feat. Momantic)," the song opens with a wavy and vibrant synth arrangement alongside haunting piano melodies and Cole Pryor's powerful and melodic vocals. While he drenches us in minor chords and introspection, Cole Pryor expands on the gut-wrenching feeling of being trapped in his mind and wishing to flee his internal struggles. As a rolling crash of thunder takes us through a cinematic transition, Momantic makes her breathy and warm vocal appearance while enlightening listeners on her struggles and coping with the harshness and pain she's experienced. We genuinely adore the authenticity and reality of this song, as it reminds listeners to reach out for help when they're in need. Catch Cole Pryor's latest single, "Free Me From My Mind (feat. Momantic)," on all digital streaming platforms, and keep an eye out for his forthcoming debut EP, 'Perspective,' later this year. Thank you for joining us at BuzzMusic Cole, what an emotional and relatable listening experience you've provided with your recent single, "Free Me From My Mind (feat. Momantic)." What pushed you to release this compelling piece? Thank you so much for the opportunity! Well like all the songs off my EP Perspective, this song has intense meaning. But once I had the record finished I knew this had to be a single. I felt especially during these troubling times, everyone could relate to struggling with mental health issues. We all experience something in our lives that causes this phenomenon. I wanted to show people that may be struggling that they are not alone. Taking to those who you can trust can really help better deal with what’s going on, but obviously, everyone is different but for me personally talking and sharing my experiences has really helped improve my mental health! That is why I felt this song was the right choice as a single! What drew you to the stylings of Momantic to feature on your single, "Free Me From My Mind (feat. Momantic)?" Have you worked together in the past? Momantic and I wrote pretty much every song on this record together, they are extremely talented! We’ve been working together for the past few years and we both just work extremely well together. I thought their voice would complement mine extremely well and I couldn’t think of ANYONE better to have sung this song with me! What was your overall creative process like with Momantic when writing your lyrics for "Free Me From My Mind (feat. Momantic)?" Was it challenging to be so vulnerable during this process? Since I’ve been writing with Momantic for so long now, I think we have developed an extremely open and honest friendship, during the process of not just this song but all the songs we wrote for the record (some of which didn’t make the record) we had so many conversations discussing my past trauma with my father and all he put my family through. The process was actually a pretty fast one lyrically. One day I sat down at the piano and I wrote my verse, and chorus. Knowing Momantic had also been dealing with mental health issues, I knew they not only should be a co-writer, but Momantic should be a feature. So I sent Mo a text and asked if they would want to be a part of the song, and Mo immediately said yes! I sent over my verse and chorus and not too long after we had Mos verse and we worked on the bridge! The most challenging part was producing the track. It went through many different forms before I was hit with the idea to take the song into a more cinematic experience. I think it turned out really well and it truly all came together perfectly. It’s definitely one of my favorites off the record, and one of my favorite songs I’ve produced! Could you drop any hints regarding your forthcoming debut EP, 'Perspective?' Do you have a particular theme or concept within the project? I can’t give too much away! But I will say it’s definitely an alternative pop record, full of synths, heavy subject matter, and catchy hooks! Every song has something to say, no word is wasted. The record is called Perspective for a reason. After the passing of my abusive father, I and my family took a lot of time to heal and try to live a somewhat normal life. For people who deal with domestic abuse, life after abuse is extremely difficult. You go through so much and change who you are to try and keep the peace, so trying to undo all those habits was challenging. I had to gain some perspective, I had to take time to better understand myself, my situation, and my life, and I wanted out of it. The theme of this record is definitely understanding, and it definitely was a healing experience for me and one I can’t wait to share with everyone! What's next for you? I’m preparing for the release of Perspective which comes out on August 13th! I just moved back to Memphis TN, so at the moment I’m kinda establishing a routine for music, and figuring out my new life. I just started production on my first full-length album, I’m still working with my vocal coach but I am bringing a new team from Memphis to the next project. I’m gonna be preparing for the first Perspective Livestream, and plan on doing as many shows as I can! I’ll be traveling to Nashville as well as promote my record! Things are looking up and I couldn’t be more excited! Instagram Facebook

Based in Los Angeles, CA, the alternative-pop band Forum Blue releases two soothing summer anthems with their 2-track EP entitled 'Mid Summer Never.' Led by frontman, singer-songwriter, and producer Ray Torres, Forum Blue is constantly finding new ways to keep their audience engaged and entertained. With help from various influences and inspirations, Forum Blue crafts a style that blends the 80s/90s pop with a millennium alt-rock spirit. Now releasing their 2-track EP, 'Mid Summer Never,' Forum Blue brings two savory, anthemic, and blissful tracks to our ears. Featuring the singles "Summer Kiss" and "Hot Summer," Forum Blue releases this album just in time for us to hit repeat on all summer long. Expanding on the first track, "Summer Kiss," this track opens with a beaming psychedelic synth melody accompanied by short keyboard bursts, a bright electric guitar, and delicate drum breaks. As Ray Torres makes his tender vocal appearance, he brings us into the heart of summer through picturesque lyricism that gets us craving a sweet summer love. As he continues exclaiming his desire for someone's tender love for the rest of his days, the dynamic instrumentation leads us towards the outro with vast heart, delicacy, and passion. Listening to the project's second track, "Hot Summer," the song begins with a sweet and blissful jazz arrangement through soothing drum breaks, a vibrant saxophone, and lush acoustic guitars. As Ray Torres starts to expand on his playful and picturesque lyrical theme, he delves into the heart of the summer while leaving us in awe of his gentle and tender vocal portrayal. We're head over heels for the jazzy tones of this sweet single as it leads us down to the moon-lit beach with waves crashing upon our toes. Allow Forum Blue to take you on a brilliant sonic adventure with his recent 2-track EP, 'Mid Summer Never,' now available to be your seasonal anthem on all digital streaming platforms. Welcome to BuzzMusic Forum Blue. We're genuinely enchanted by the two tracks you've recently released within 'Mid Summer Never.' What inspired you to release two singles that touch on the savory feelings of summer? I visited Palm Springs last summer a few times and just caught the vibe. I wanted to create that feeling of floating in a pool and sipping drinks at sunset. I know the world kinda missed out on summer last year, so I wanted to make something you can leave on repeat and vibe to. Regarding the first track, "Summer Kiss," did you have any exterior musical influences in mind when crafting the psychedelic pop-infused sonics? I'm a huge fan of the way Tame Impala uses synths. They're always toasty and sizzle in the mix of their songs. And to me, that feels like summer. I really like the moment modern pop is having right now. They're using a lot of cool funk stuff in it. There's a layback beat and bubbly synths to this Khalid song "Talk" that really got me inspired. And the choruses on all the Harry Styles songs have such great hooks. It's always something I strive for. What inspired the jazzy and rhythmic feel of your second single, "Hot Summer?" Why did you want to bring such a soothing and gentle tone to this track? I love old-school Latin oldies from bands like Tierra and Malo. I wanted to make a song like theirs with a modern twist. But I also love how obnoxious the Saxophone was used in the '80s, like George Michael's "careless whispers" or Sade's "smooth operator". I thought I'd mix those two and make my own vibe. Something romantic to sip drinks too. What did you want your audience to feel after experiencing your 2-track EP, 'Mid Summer Never?' What sort of listening experience did you want to offer? I want listeners to feel the vibe of summer and immediately add these tunes to their summer playlist. I would love for them to bookend their playlist with my music. Start with "Summer Kiss" and end it with "Hot Summer", have a bunch of cool jams in between. That would be ideal for me. Instagram

We adore how the scorching sonics complement Cherry's dominant flow, as it leaves us practicing our dancing skills to get back in the clubs as soon as we can. As Cherry continues pouring her rhythmic and descriptive bars over our speakers, she leaves us in a trance while wowing us with each dominant tone and flair she naturally exudes.

Welcome to BuzzMusic Cherry. We're nothing but pleased with the outcome of your flaming hot single, "Bring It Here." What inspired you to create this club-like banger? All of my music is pretty much club bangers. My inspiration is usually drawn from a powerhouse of unapologetic women in the industry that aren’t afraid to make the music and write the lyrics that used to be taboo. Who produced your single, "Bring It Here?" What sort of vibe or atmosphere did you want to capture through the song's sonics? Mymamanamedmeevan produced the Soulja Boy-inspired single. I’ve worked with him previously. I love his high rhythm melodic club music. The vibe I wanted to catch was carefree twerk music. Something that has to ability to lighten the mood anywhere you play it. You've truly demonstrated a rare mastery of rhythmic and dominant lyric writing/delivery. How did you want your bars within "Bring It Here" to make listeners feel? The bars in “Bring It Here” don’t really differ from anything I’ve recorded so far. I enjoy being the artist who’s lyrics you can’t predict. I wanna set myself apart so my listeners can always wonder what I’ll say next. Should we anticipate more club-esque and energetic tracks like "Bring It Here" on your forthcoming EP? This will be my first body of work as “Cherry”, so the entire project I’m aiming for energetic tracks that flow into one another. A project with no skips. It’ll include a couple of other singles I’ve released such as the high-streaming “Clout” and “Troublesome (feat. Ray Champion) produced by SoundTrackGeniuz. That’s the goal for this EP.

Experience the unique and angelic stylings of Cathyy's latest single, "Craving You," and get to know more of her heartbreak anthems on all digital streaming platforms. Welcome to BuzzMuisc Cathyy, and congratulations on the release of your poignant and emotional single, "Craving You." What inspired you to create this heartbreak anthem? Thank you! I spent the first few months of my break up really wallowing in self-pity and once the pity party was over I really wanted to write a song that sounded happy, and focus on a playful feeling rather than writing another heartbreaking ballad. I was inspired by that rush of falling in love for the first time last summer and the excitement that feels never-ending! Was it difficult to reach back into your memories and replay those intimate moments when writing your lyricism for "Craving You?" I see writing as very therapeutic so it wasn’t that difficult for me to dive into those emotions and memories, it was quite fun to write this one because of how upbeat the track was, however the saddest lyric for me would be “But don’t you promise me forever” just because it shows how my perception on love has changed now. Why did you choose to fuel the sonic atmosphere with rather organic and tender instrumentals for "Craving You?" Did you have any help when formulating the instrumental arrangements? I was listening to a lot of Lorde’s music around the time of producing this track with my musician friend, Adam Ward. I love the way her tracks sound and the way she does her vocals! We wanted an 80’s pop influence (which you can kind of hear in Lorde’s music too)and I really adore the electric guitar riffs you hear throughout the song. Craving someone is a natural feeling, we all crave someone or something, and I wanted the instruments to build and build throughout the song, as the feeling gets more intense. Seeing that you're known for creating heartbreak anthems like "Craving You," do you plan to continue 'milking' these emotions to release more compelling and emotional pieces? Hahaha, I wouldn’t say I’m milking it that much, I would like to think I won’t be heartbroken forever and will write some happier songs in the near future. But for the meanwhile, enjoy the heartbreak anthems! What's next for you? I’ve just started gigging again in London! So, I’m hoping to get a band together and gig a lot more! No new album is in the works as of currently, as I think I need some time to really live my life! But yeah hopefully another new single by the end of the year, who knows. Instagram Twitter

From the fertile rock breeding ground of Milan, Italy, the alternative rock duo Atwood releases their poignant and emotional single entitled "Parallel Lines." Introducing themselves to the music industry by way of their first single, "Black Mirror," it's clear that Atwood's debut was only the beginning of a thorough and conceptual storyline. After gaining vast recognition in Milan's pop-punk/alternative scene, Atwood went on to share stages with icons, winning the 'Nuove Prospettive' contest and receiving the opportunity to play at 1MNext Final and Drink 'Em All Festival. Gearing up to release their forthcoming EP in late July, Atwood introduces us to the project through its fifth released single, "Parallel Lines." Said to be a radio-ready modern rock single, Atwood also mentioned this, "Lyrically, 'Parallel Lines' is all about being at war with one's self. 'Parallel Lines' is for you, if you've ever fought against your own body, and if you've ever felt like you just don't belong with it." Produced by Francesco 'Katoo' Catitti, "Parallel Lines" opens with a hazy electric guitar and soft downtempo drum breaks. As Alice Sachertorte makes her warm and gentle vocal appearance, she instantly sets the song's tone through her emotional vocal tones that speak of an inner war that continues to linger. As we reach the powerful hook, Daniele Mammola drenches us in his vibrant electric guitar that induces all sorts of emotions amongst any listener. Diving deeper into the single, we're left in awe of Atwood's flawless poetic lyricism merged with their well-rounded instrumentation, especially as Sachertorte continues her powerful vocal venture while touching on the inner feelings of wanting to stay inside and hide away from life's trials and tribulations. Catch Atwood in an exhilarating new release, "Parallel Lines," and don't miss out on their forthcoming EP, slated to release on July 26th, 2021. Hello Atwood and welcome to BuzzMusic. What a thorough and emotional listening experience you've provided with your latest single, "Parallel Lines." What inspired you to write a song about feeling a sense of war within one's mind and body? This one was inspired by a tough period in Alice’s life where the body looked like it was actively trying to sabotage itself. Everything was overpowered by a sense of frustration and just wanting to just give in because sometimes it is just too hard to keep fighting a battle you cannot win. However, Parallel Lines does not deliver a negative message – at the end of the day, we may feel burnt out, but we will always find the strength to keep going. It gets better eventually, it just takes a lot of work. Could you expand on your duo's instrumental creative process for "Parallel Lines?" Did Daniele Mammola handle the song's entire instrumental arrangement? Usually what happens is that Daniele writes the first draft of the song and then we work on it together. The very first input always comes from him! What’s interesting though is that our songs always come out completely different from what they used to be in the beginning – we work very thoroughly on every single detail, like, we literally dissect every item, and change everything a million times, so the Parallel Lines you’re listening to now is nothing like the first draft. Our focus is to do everything in our power to get to what we have in mind and to make everything perfect and spotless. In addition, we had the privilege to work on this one with Katoo, who helped us develop the song’s full potential, making Parallel Lines the song it is now. Did Alice Sachertorte write the lyricism for "Parallel Lines?" Was it challenging to write about such emotional and relatable themes? Yep to both! We have been focusing on getting more and more emotional and deep when it comes to lyrics – we want to be as true and honest as possible, and sometimes it’s very scary. Exposing yourself is a gamble, especially when what you have to say can be accessed by virtually anyone. However, it all pays off when people come to you and tell you that that they identify in what you wrote - it’s just amazing to know you’ve touched someone’s feelings, that you connected with them somehow. That’s all music is about, honestly. How does "Parallel Lines" fit into the concept and theme of your forthcoming EP? How does the song prepare us for the overall project? Parallel Lines is the keystone to this EP, as it explores both helplessness and darkness against escape and light. It’s the balance between pain and relief, and this reflects in the overall mood of the song. Just like the EP, Parallel Lines merges alt-rock with pop, electronic elements, and our post-hardcore roots. Instagram Facebook

"Feel the Same" was the most recent single release by LÉA, and it led listeners into a trance that was timeless, amiable, as well as expansive. There are sensual, honest, impactful, and profound aspects to the lyricism of LÉA in "Feel the Same."

One goal that LÉA had in mind was that she wanted her listeners to elevate their minds and allow themselves to grow in limitless ways. "When we get comfortable in our situations, we stunt our potential for growth and that goes for all aspects of life." - LÉA At the end of the day, LÉA is all about projecting good energy through her music, and "Feel the Same" succeeded to do exactly so.

T he solo project, God of Love is backed by the multifaceted James Burnett. Taking up the piano at 14-years-old just so he could join his older brother’s band, James Burnett spent the next four or five years in and out of various bands with his brother and friends, recording two albums and moving to Los Angeles for a spell to pursue the dream. However, he ultimately decided that he was his own best bandmate, and thus birthed God of Love. Taking the resonated amplification of “Take You Seriously” up a notch, God of Love delves into the gritty and eccentric universe of inimitably crafted music. Pulling influence from The National, Arcade Fire, and Radiohead, you hear the inspirations seep out in a way that solidifies the lane that God of Love has crafted for himself. With heavy synth layers that thrust through the soothing essence of this record, we’re fixated on the various layers of textured distortion that compose the multidimensional soundwaves heard. Feasting on what we consider to be a spellbinding rush of magnetic tendencies, the intriguing and dark environment that makes itself known is accompanied by the reverberated layers of vocalization that James Burnett charismatically expels from his mind. “Take You Seriously,” is more than just another song to come playing through the airwaves. With an array of tones that come parading out of the lyrical motifs cast out, we’re hooked on just how seamlessly the intensity is driven up and down as this composition progresses. Bolstered by the full sounds of each musical component to grace the presence of this single, we’re fascinated with how animated James Burnett can convey the inner finding of his mind. “Take You Seriously,” has us fastening our seatbelts and eager to take this joy ride with God of Love. Welcome to BuzzMusic God of Love, and congratulations on the release of “Take You Seriously.” Could you please shine a light on why you delved into the particular musical influences you did in order to create this track? First of all, thank you very much, and thanks for having me. As far as the musical influences, I'd say me and producer, Alex Bhore worked more from an overall atmosphere that we'd planned for the whole record and we kind of went with the flow to take each song and let it live in that world. We had a lot of playlists and artists that helped us get an idea of where we could take each song. This song for me had a sort of Pulp energy. I channeled a lot of Jarvis Cocker swagger and did a lot of unnecessary hip movements when recording the vocals. I felt like that swagger was really important, even though it's a bit desperate, like Nick Cave and the Bad Seed's "Do You Love Me?". It's a dark love song with way too much confidence. So I went to artists like Cave and Cocker, who do that best. Was your vision brought to life exactly how you imagined it? Working on your own, do you find this to cater to how the ultimate concepts are driven forward? This song actually began as a piano ballad, but when we started recording somehow it just erupted into what it is now, which I love. I love being in control of a lot of the project but I'd be lost without a producer. In the end, everything came down to me and Alex working together, taking risks, with very minimal outside voices. Often times we'd do a complete 180 on a song and just go with it because that's what we were feeling in the moment. It took a lot of trust on both our parts but it worked out beautifully. What happens to be your favorite lyric performed in this song? Why? I personally love: "I think that you're the one/ because you're the only one/ who takes me seriously." It sums up the whole song for me. Just two people who single each other out and look at each other as something special and important. It's naive and obviously not forever, but it's pretty fucking cool when it's happening. With the complexity of this song evoking thoughts and emotion, what are you hoping that your fan base takes away from “Take You Seriously?" I want this song to keep people's hearts pumping and let it be the part of the record where they get a break from all the darkness that's prevalent throughout the rest of the tracks. It's like one little naive happy moment of nervous energy amidst the horror. What can we expect to see next from you? The record is finished so we'll be releasing more singles and putting out the whole album later this year. Black Beyond is the next song we'll put out, hopefully in a month or two. Facebook

Join Kenny Supreme on his journey to contentment with his latest 5-track EP, 'Heartbreak on Cauldwell,' available on all digital streaming platforms. Welcome to BuzzMusic Kenny Supreme, and congratulations on the release of your thorough 5-track EP, 'Heartbreak on Cauldwell.' When did you begin writing songs and ideas for this project? How long was the entire project in the making? Thank you! It feels amazing to have a full project out! I began the writing process during the 2020 pandemic. Being locked up inside made all my emotions enhanced. I knew that this EP was going to be about heartbreaks because I felt a huge feeling of loneliness during our quarantine days. I put all my emotions into lyrics and turned them into songs. The entire project took about a year to complete. Did you work alongside any producers or engineers when crafting the production for 'Heartbreak on Cauldwell'? How did they help bring your visions to life? During the production process, I worked with all my producers remotely. Some songs were done by producers in the states and some internationally. I was able to record my vocals at home and send it over to them via email. I made demos with GarageBand and sent them to the producers to remake. I had no complaints when they would send back the remakes. It’s like they knew what I wanted and how I wanted it to sound. From there, I worked on the tracklist with a friend and it just flowed perfectly! That’s when the title came along shortly after, “Heartbreak On Cauldwell”. Since your lyricism is rather reflective and emotional, why did you choose to fuel the sonics with such an exhilarating and upbeat tone for 'Heartbreak on Cauldwell?' I noticed that whenever I would read back at my lyrics, I would often feel sad and cry. But I wanted to turn this sadness into happiness with the uptempo beats. I wanted to celebrate my heartbreaks through dance music rather than grieve on them. Without the heartbreaks, I wouldn’t be the person I am today. It’s helped me see the world from a different perspective and it’s also helped me have a sort of closure. Now I listen back to my music and feel relieved that I don’t have to feel that sadness anymore. I just dance the pain away! Expanding on your lyricism within the EP, 'Heartbreak on Cauldwell,' did you ever face any personal challenges along the way, seeing that your lyrics are incredibly vulnerable and emotional? The personal challenge was writing the album but also moving on from the heartbreaks. I was writing about the experiences I was living through at the time. I shed some tears during and after the writing process. But it was therapeutic for me because it was like the lyrics were entries of a diary. What do you hope your audience takes away from the overall EP, 'Heartbreak on Cauldwell?' What do you want them to feel after taking a listen? Having your heart broken means that you’re human. You have a big and caring heart. Over the years I’ve learned through my bad experiences and have helped others get through their breakups. No matter the emotion, the feeling, the thought.. someone else has gone through the same. This is what connects us all. I want my audience to see that we all go through heartbreaks. Once we overcome it and move on, we are stronger than ever. Don’t allow it to continue to hurt you by closing out new love. Get out, meet new people and live a beautiful and happy life. What's next for you? I’m actually working on my next album. I know this one will be more positive and about self-love. While I work on more music, the goal is to perform and promote my EP! I’ve been booking performances all around New York. My next step is to take it around the states and even take it internationally. Instagram Facebook

Genuinely one of the most endearing and heartfelt pieces we've heard recently. Hello Kenny, thank you for joining us at BuzzMusic. What made you want to create such a heartfelt and passionate song with "Be the One"? What inspired your poetic and balladic lyricism? I’ve always made music that was uplifting & danceable. I wanted to try something different which is slower & meaningful. It first started with a beat that I heard online. Once I heard the beat, I immediately started feeling a type of emotion. I had written the song during the pandemic & it seemed as though being in quarantine brought out my inner emotions. I thought of a person who I wanted to be with but unfortunately, we couldn’t be together for other reasons. In the song, I say that yes I’m not perfect & I make mistakes but I know that they should be the lover for me. Seeing as your message within "Be the One" is incredibly heartfelt and sincere, how did you craft the production to reflect these themes? Did you have any collaborative help during the process? The instrumental for the song was a little different than the original one that I found online. I sent it to a producer in India & he sent me the newer version in two days. I fell in love with it & knew that I had to make this an official track. After that, I got in contact with a producer in Canada which I’ve worked within the past. I had recorded my vocals in my bedroom & sent it to him the same day. When he sent it back, I cried so hard because it was complete perfection. Back to your songwriting process within "Be the One," did you face any challenges when opening up and being so vulnerable in order to write such passionate lyricism? I had written the song during quarantine in my bedroom. Being inside for so long by myself made me really sad. I didn’t have the person I wanted to keep my company. So I let out all my emotions through the song. After the track was completely finished, I didn’t feel quite so lonely anymore. I was able to let out my feelings & tell a story through my song. In a way, hearing the song filled my void. Seeing as you're a talented triple threat, how do you balance your other jobs and gigs with your music career? Do you feel that being a triple threat gives you an advantage? For me, I love to work. I’m always working on the next thing. Balancing my other jobs & my music career is difficult but also easy. I find it difficult because if I do a lot at once, I tend to overthink & lose my creative vision at times. I get so hooked on everything that my mind loses focus. But I find it easy because once I get myself together, all my artistic ideas come to me at once & there’s no stopping me after that. I feel like it does have a good advantage because I’m always on the move. I’m always doing something. My mind is always active. I also find that you don’t just have to do one thing, you can do it all. What has been keeping you inspired in 2020? To be honest, the 2020 pandemic actually inspired me. It made me realize that we must live our lives to the fullest. You’ll never know what can happen. During this time, I’ve been able to really find myself & find my purpose. Every day, I’m evolving into the artist who I’ve always wanted it to be & I am continuing to grow. I know for a fact, they’ll be many more to come from Kenny Supreme. Instagram

Hip-hop artist Longshot is one of the hardest working and most underrated emcees out of Chicago, IL. Currently residing in Minneapolis, MN, Longshot propels his own life experiences through his lyrics and performances to inspire and motivate others. Using this ammunition to fuel his most recent three-track project, 'Summer Love EP,' we get to witness the versatile techniques that make Longshot the established artist he is today. With the introductory single-making waves with the eclectic instrumental foundation, Longshot collaborates with Lazerbank, Sledge, and Antonia in order to bring the heated vision to life. Swaying our mind through the vibrant soundscape that immediately has us wanting to get up and dance, “Back It Up,” etches a sense of melodically charged bliss into our lives. There’s a unique manner in which the summertime anthem trickles through your speakers with a powerful yet smooth conveyance. Commencing the project's smooth connotations in a way that has you wanting more, is exactly what we expect from Longshot on the 'Summer Love EP.' Dipping us into a more cognizant offering with “Around Me,” we find ourselves fixated upon the lyrical overflow of emotion as Longshot authentically rides the cadences in a slick fashion. Transitioning between a rush of fast tempo rhymes, and the entrancing hold that the hook bears with a lyrical motif such as, ‘I need your love,’ present, Longshot gives us the best of both worlds in this perfectly placed record. Allowing himself to get a bit more vulnerable with the words that he expresses, we grasp onto the mindset that Longshot embodies when he is riddled with the drug of love. “Kind of Luv,” is the final track on this trio of perfected love bops; and let us just say that the early to mid-2000s styling of the beat has us understanding why he would leave “Summer Love EP,” on such a high note. Dousing us in a realm of infectious grooves as the tempo blatantly infiltrates our speakers in the best way possible, Longshot has us singing along to the mesmerizing essence of the hook that describes the type of love he wants and needs. The doubling effect on his vocals that remain consistent through this EP truly reiterates what he wants to come across in a more prominent manner. Giving everything a chance to breathe in its respected place of musical tenors, Longshot has done an exceptional job at navigating us through his sonic voyage of adoration. Listen to 'Summer Love EP,' on all major streaming platforms today. A warm welcome to BuzzMusic Longshot, and congratulations on the release of such a versatile EP. We loved taking this body of work in from start to finish. What inspired you to craft a three-track body of work titled 'Summer Love EP?' Thank you. The idea behind the EP was to give fans something to bump while Lazerbeak and myself finish the full-length album titled Spread Love. This is the Summer prelude to that project. In your own words, what does this EP say about you as an artist and individual? What are you hoping that your audience can take away from it? I just always want listeners to be able to relate somehow. Whether it's with the beats, the lyrics, the album art, any visual...I'm just trying to connect. Was there a method to the order that each song falls into place on 'Summer Love EP?' Could you please take us into your reasoning? I usually sequence the tracklist by feel. So 'Back It Up' just felt like it should be the first song. The production is the main source for figuring out that feeling for me. Lazebeak is a living legend and genius when it comes to production and I'm super honored to be able to rock with him and craft these songs. Out of the songs that are offered up, do you have a particular one that resonates with you more than the others? Why? They all hit for a different reason. 'Back It Up' has a completely different feel than what I usually write so that was super fun and I was able to show my versatility with my writing(I wrote both singing parts). 'Around Me' is kinda my way of breaking the love I want to receive from a partner and why it's important to have that type of love around. 'Kind Of Luv' is my love song to Hip Hop...the last line of the song: "I fall in love with you/every time I step in the booth". At the end of the day, I honestly think I'm afraid of giving in to love physically, so I write my lil songs... What has been your proudest moment through your artistic career so far? Any time someone comes up to me or sends me an email or dm telling me how much my music has helped them get through a difficult time in their life, or how they are inspired to go after their own dreams because they came across my music, that's the dopeness, that's the biggest reason I do this. I love making art and I love love love performing, but I love helping others the most. I'm never gonna stop working on bettering myself, in art and in life. My career hopefully reflects that work, passion, and growth. Thanks for listening. Instagram
