With a love for Hip-hop running through his veins, this emcee is proud to deliver his latest single “I Didn’t COME TO LOSE.” Swaying in the wavy demesne of west coast sounds, Stickman the President hones in on a nostalgic hue of old school Hip-hop as he portrays a message of persevering through all the nonsense.

Known for the way he can finesse any beat that comes his way, we’re feasting on the authenticity that is showcased in Stickman the President’s veracity as he continues to establish his name. Welcome to BuzzMusic, Stickman the President, and congratulations on the release of “I Didn’t COME TO LOSE.” Being your first release of the year, what inspired you to make this your introduction to 2021? Thank you, overall, after having a year to really sit back and reflect on my life throughout this pandemic; I got a chance to really analyze what I really wanted out of life and how I was going to go get it. Focus and commitment to myself and my dreams are my main priority, and I wanted to make that my focal point for the year. “I didn’t come to lose” is a very raw expression of just that. It’s very important to me to be myself, people respect that and relate to that, this is another reason I thought the song would be a good fit for my first single of the year. In your own words, what does this single mean to you? What are you hoping that listeners take away from the messaging? Keeping it real and being authentic to yourself is important to me. This song represents that as well as truly understanding what it means to stay distraction-free. Distractions come in many forms, people and society can be very influential; we have to see through all of the BS and keep it pushing. I’m hoping my listeners are understanding that I am all about progression and moving forward within myself. I want them to forget all that weird stuff and to focus and the real, nothing can stop an individual who truly knows who they are. You pack a punch with the lyricism inserted into this track! What artists inspire the way that you style your music? Making music is still very new to me as I started creating music in July of 2020, so I am studying much more now than ever. With that being said I don’t have many I style my music after in that regard. Some of the artists that I have been a fan of are Lil Wayne, Snoop Dogg, Ice Cube, Kanye Cassidy, and 2Pac. How does “I Didn’t COME TO LOSE” tie into the direction that you’re taking your artistry? I think “I Didn’t come to lose “really ties into the direction of my artistry simply because it’s just me, Rough, Raw, and honest. I don’t mind confronting people or situations in order to promote a healthier standard of living, healing, and moving the narrative forward. especially if it’s affecting me and where I am trying to go in life. What's next for you? That’s a tough question, but generally a lot more music, videos, interviews, and collabs. I think the world is ready for my style of music, so it’s very important to me to get myself out there and expand my fan base, as well speaking my truth and providing a more creative way to connect with my audience.

Hailing from Germany, the mesmerizing electronic duo BLACK RAYN introduces us to their latest 5-track EP 'Cassandra' with the release of the project's lead single, "Callous Hearts." Having met at university back in 2014, BLACK RAYN quickly sparked their creative chemistry by utilizing the school's facilities to begin their musical endeavors. Now releasing their latest EP, 'Cassandra,' Philipp Hill and Bülent Kirschbaum are ready to win listeners over with their melodic dance tunes. When elaborating on the EP, BLACK RAYN mentioned, "We felt like our material is still, if not more up to date than ever and appeals to our desire and longing for closure, healing, and new beginnings," which leads us to their savory deep house single, "Callous Hearts." Listening to "Callous Hearts," the journey begins with mid-tempo dance drums, whaling background synths, and a melodic saxophone that offers a warm organic flair. As vocalist Kirschbaum begins expanding on his inner thoughts and thinking himself into a spiral, the sonics begin to pick up with crisp snares and unique vocal samples. We can feel a similar melodic deep house sound to acts like Bob Moses and Cassian, as BLACK RAYN allows us to deepen our emotional attachment to this single through their meaningful lyricism and celestial sonics. As we move towards the outro, we're met with a transcendent beat drop that punches our speakers with tight drum arrangements and Kirschbaum's soothing vocal stylings. Reaching the track's end, we're more than excited to explore the sonic depths of the rest of their EP. Lose yourself in the melodic deep house grooves of BLACK RAYN's latest single, "Callous Hearts," and find their EP 'Cassandra' on all streaming platforms. Hello BLACK RAYN and thank you for joining us at BuzzMusic. We truly admire the melodic tones and heartfelt feel of your latest single, "Callous Hearts." When did you begin creating this emotional and groovy tune? Thank you! It’s been a long journey! We started recording some acoustic bits and bobs in 2014 including a draft for “callous hearts”. Back then we didn’t have the idea to turn it into a song like this yet and we didn’t have plans to be a duo either. It was just Phil being the recording and mixing engineer for Bülent’s acoustic sessions. Could you expand on your duo's creative process for "Callous Hearts?" What sort of feel and vibe did you want to offer with this track? At first, as a guitar and vocal track, it was rather dark and melancholic, but once we started adding some synths it brightened up and became a little more bouncy and fluffy, so we decided to go with a 4/4 bounce and make it a house track. In the end, it turned out to be a melancholic but warm dance floor cut, maybe something to close a summery festival set with? We would! What sort of lyrical themes does your duo usually touch on? What message did you want to convey within "Callous Hearts?" Bülent is the lyrical Jedi behind our songs. His lyrics are mostly about love, new love, old love, lost love, newly found love. As with the sound, we like to stay on the melancholic, darker, and deeper side of things in the lyrics as Bülent is inspired by middle age folk music and poetry a lot. How long did it take to create and finalize your EP 'Cassandra?' Did you find yourself going back and reworking parts of the project? It took 7 years from the first ideas to the release! It sounds crazy, but we didn’t work on it for 7 years obviously lol! After we had the first drafts, Phil experimented with the recordings a little bit and decided to do a little more than just add his own touch to the mix, the songs turned out to be completely different from what Bülent had envisioned. We both loved the result at which we decided to maybe, possibly start a collab project. We did need to re-record some of the vocals because they weren’t as tight as we’d need them to be over the electronic drums. That took a year or two as we don’t live in the same city and have other stuff going on. Once we had the vocals re-recorded the mix needed to be adjusted so that took some time again. But in 2020 we both had some time and bülent started working on new material already so we had to finally finish and release this first piece of work! Instagram

Reigning supreme from Flint, Michigan, Sed’Trieaun picked up on his musical side at an early age courtesy of his grandfather. Falling in love with the Motown sound, wanting to be a Temptation was his first musical dream. Sed’Trieaun sees his musical aptitudes as both a gift and a curse; since he learned to rap from an abusive stepfather who is no longer in his life. After the abusive years, Sed'Trieaun and his mother moved to the South for a chance at new opportunities. As we fast forward to today, Sed’Trieaun allows his music to speak for itself. With what started as a mixtape released in 2012 on Datpiff, Sed’Trieaun released the first installment of his 'Lost Thoughts,' project. Entirely created from the ground up by his diverse creative techniques, Sed’Trieaun brought a certain primitiveness to the sounds reconnoitered. Now, bringing life to his latest album and direct follow up to the 2012 mixtape, Sed’Trieaun returns with 'Lost Thoughts II.' Using 9 songs to capture his listener’s attention, he exposes the cognizant thinking that lurks in the depths of his mind in a lyrical manner. We are open to a variety of dimensions that transition through the traits of buoyant and ominous as we comprehend the place these thoughts reside. Fitting into the undeviating schemes released by Sed’Trieaun, the vast narratives embarked are virtuously unfiltered. “LT2 Intro” and “The Shades (freestyle),” embody a cavernous essence that seeps into the molding of the instrumentation. Intricate with his rhyme schemes, Sed’Trieaun leaves us navigating through his own mind as he emanates a hunger in his tonal distinction bared. The emotions that are divulged remain raw and authentic as we see the vulnerability in a cognizant offering of intimate lyrics exposing the depth that comprise the layers of his inner being. Recruiting the talents of Btmvle Jotta and J-Link to enhance the desired resonance heard on “Chasing Victories,” “The Shades (freestyle),” and “Windy City,” our speakers are amplified off of the dynamism exuded in the lyrical dexterity shed. Slick cadences acclimatize the Southern resonance that is effortlessly radiated in a medley of ominous tenors that allows us to feel the pain and angst Sed’Trieaun displays. Being open with the words he casts out has us addicted to his mind-altering approach through his musicality. “Wind Surf,” shakes up the essence of 'Lost Thoughts II,' as optimism is disbursed through the witty quips situated in this record. Golden saxophone notes in the instrumentation have us grasping on to the warm and buoyant spirit simmering in this uplifting realm, all while being forward with the chronicle being placed into the queue. Through the sonic roller coaster of this album, each song is filled to the brim with magnetism. We’re thrilled to see the self-assured swagger of Sed’Trieaun illuminate tracks such as “This Way,” “My 6,” and “2020Vision.” Encapsulating the braggadocious flair that leaves us entirely occupied in the undeniable allure Sed’Trieaun portrays, the series of instrumentations that vary in fortitude heightens our senses with the unapologetic persona that Sed’Trieaun effortlessly exudes. Confident with the way his lyrics punch, Sed’Trieaun bobs and weaves through his buttery cadences as his prevailing tone sets the pace for all to come after him. “Windy City” and “Wile E. Coyote,” endure a raw emotion exposed in the authenticity growling from Sed’Trieaun. Tumbling into his bulbous delivery of ubiquitous wordplay, the energy of Sed’Trieaun runs through these records vivaciously. You can’t help but fixate on the textured distortion that increases the intensity of the message being put forth in the turbulent waves of the final two songs on 'Lost Thoughts II.' Skulking in the sensation that hails from lived experiences, the mesmerizing tenors issued in the full essence of 'Lost Thoughts II,' has us intrigued with anticipation formulated in the underlying message of each song in succession. Welcome back to BuzzMusic, Sed’Trieau, and congratulations on the release of your 'Lost Thoughts II,' album. With the variety of emotions explored through this project, could you please take us into the concept behind the vulnerability shed through the nine songs heard? Thank you, happy to be back! You guys are like family. The concept behind the project is, that we all have problems. I like to speak in metaphors in my music. Simple as put, we all go through hell...we just got different devils! Do you happen to have a favorite song from the project? What is the meaning behind it? I cycle through favorites, but right now I’d say “chasing victories”. When I wrote that hook, I was in a dark place. I wondered if people around could see past the “he’s a rapper” thing, and realize I have my own internal struggles with doubt and confidence. As a new dad, how can I make a sustainable life for my daughter, and is music the way. The hook exemplifies an often occurring thought process. How have you grown as an artist from the 2012 release of 'Lost Thoughts,' to the present-day release of 'Lost Thoughts II?' Immensely, the first release was just me finding a studio after writing music to a YouTube beat. This time around it’s for the money! I’m certified in music production now, so I approach music from a technical-scientific standpoint. I was young back then with no music knowledge. If I go back with the information and techniques learned today, I would be in a different place. I couldn’t even record my voice back then lol. Everything is done in-house now! Being the mastermind behind the full album. Could you please share a glimpse of what the creative process looked like when structuring the songs heard? I make a bunch of beats all the time, but I focused and made 50 beats like a year ago. Then narrowed those to 20, and I went from there. Once I got past the production phase, I write a little something to each beat in order to not get burnt out by one. I repeat this process until I have 16s written out! What does 'Lost Thoughts II' say about you as an artist and individual? Even though the jaded lenses of personal struggles Imma force to be reckoned with. You can achieve goals when you put the time in. If I’m just now putting out this quality of audio..as fresh as I am from learning, just imagine in 5 years. This is only the beginning of my musical journey. Instagram Facebook

Hailing from Western Massachusets, Bekka Dowland is a 24-year-old country singer and songwriter who has just released her third single “Hole In My Heart.” Constantly singing along to the radio, she discovered her passion for music at a young age. It wasn’t long before Bekka Dowland picked up a guitar and realized that her passion for music could manifest into her own original songs. Bekka’s newest single “Hole In My Heart” begins with a good old, honky-tonk instrumentation that is sure to get your cowboy boots stomping. A lighthearted violin and the delicate finger-plucking patterns from an acoustic guitar are effortlessly layered over a subtle percussion line. Paying tribute to soul-stirring, old-school bass melodies made famous by legends such as Johnny Cash, fans immediately know that they can expect nothing less than a raw and authentic country song. Bekka Dowland’s sultry alto vocals emanate a contagious attitude with every dynamic verse, which allows each witty phrase to resonate. Drawing inspiration from her own life experiences, Bekka Dowland writes about a romantic relationship that turned toxic. Bekka Dowland sets the scene of what it’s like to realize you’re being mistreated in a relationship, and exactly how to stand up for yourself and bounce back. With its memorable arrangements and anthemic songwriting, “Hole In My Heart” has fans eager to hear what else Bekka Dowland will bring us later this year. Hello Bekka and welcome to BuzzMusic. We are obsessed with the anthemic energy your lyrics bring to “Hole In My Heart,” and couldn’t help ourselves from singing along! Can you tell us about your songwriting process, and the main message you are trying to relay to fans? I distinctively remember sending over an email to my team (Ni Music Group) late at night explaining my struggles with my first break up. I had felt so lost and alone, I thought he was the only boy I would ever want to be with. Months after the breakup, I began to reflect on the relationship. This guy that my heart had ached for so long wasn’t actually the prince charming I had been ranting and raving about. It had finally clicked in my head that I wasn’t treated the way I deserved, so I started thinking, “Hey I don’t need him.” This is what inspired us to create such a relatable chorus, emphasizing the fact that you don’t need a toxic person in your life, nor the pain of a hole in your heart. The song came to life purely by poking at the things gone wrong within that relationship. The main message I am trying to relay here is you don’t need someone in your life who causes you nothing but pain. We were entranced by the instrumentations included in “Hole In My Heart.” We felt that including so many classic country instruments gave the song an old-school authenticity. What was your inspiration for the instrumentation and production of “Hole In My Heart?” Although the song is a story based on a failed relationship, we wanted to make it light-hearted and fun. We call this the “bar song” because as we were creating it, we had the thought of honky-tonks in mind. We wanted to incorporate that heartache sort of twang that can be found in the classic country break-up songs, but also bring some feisty flare to the mix. We included the gang vocals on this track at the last second, which I think gives it more of a bar anthem vibe. While mastering this song, we took some inspiration from Toby Keith’s “I love this bar,” which further lead us to the chaotic scenes found in the “Hole In My Heart” music video. As your third single, how does “Hole In My Heart” compare to your other releases? Do you feel that your music style is beginning to evolve as you progress through your career as a country artist? The release of “Hole In My Heart” has been a completely different experience compared to the first two releases. This definitely seems to be the crowd favorite. I feel that this song has an easy way of getting stuck in your head and you can’t help but sing along to the words. I have heard nothing but positive feedback thus far from family members and friends, everyone loves it! Every song that I create I believe has its own unique style based on the kind of story I am trying to tell. I think I will always be evolving, based on life events I have experienced prior to where I am now, and those that are yet to come. As I progress through my career, I think the style of my music will fall somewhere between a mix of old school/modern country depending on the vibe each particular song gives off. You mentioned that your late father was one of the main reasons you were encouraged to pursue a music career, can you tell us about his influence? My father and I had a complicated relationship while I was growing up. It wasn’t until I was 18 that we began to have a close relationship. I know he loved me in his own way and I know he wanted nothing more than to see me succeed in life. Engraved into my memory forever is one of the last things I ever heard my father say. He looked over at one of the nurses in the room, smiled, and said “My daughter has such a beautiful voice. She’s going to be a singer someday.” From that day on, I knew one way or another I was going to make it happen. What's next for you? I do have more music planned to be released later in the year. During the pandemic, I have had a lot more time to sit and write. I’m hoping to record the new material I have prepared and construct together an album with my team from NI Music Group. Until then, I plan on playing some local shows here in New England as well as some live streams on Instagram and Facebook. I’m very excited to see what opportunities may arise throughout 2021.

Continuously excelling in the adaptability surfacing from his artistry, Terry L Harris has us hung up on yet another one of his masterful offerings. Hello Terry and welcome to BuzzMusic. “Hold Me Down,” shines a light on such a different side of your artistry! We’re very impressed with how this song rounds out your brilliance. What inspired the tropical theme in the instrumentation and the lyrical concept heard in this soundscape? Thank you for giving me this awesome opportunity to speak with you! Thank you for your kind words about Hold Me Down, I wanted an island vibe to cut thru as being a part of the solution to say and play something different. I chose a great artist in DC Muziq to bring the song to life vocally and he brought the magic lyrical pen taking the song up a few notches! Compared to themes heard on other records available in your music catalog, what does “Hold Me Down,” say about you as an individual and artist? "Hold Me Down" simply says people, places, and things are affected by music, my job as an artist is to present different avenues for my listeners to travel down finding their path with the music. As an individual, this is my most ambitious record to date being that it is my first time blatantly choosing to write a concept track. Plus I love the island life and wanted it to come thru in the song! Could you please take us into the creative process that brought this song to life? How long did it take you to create the finished product that we hear today? I happened to come across another track of DC's thought it was dope and I thought. I can write a dope track for him. Then it was just about listening to some island-type vibes for a couple of days. Once I was locked in, I recorded and produced the bulk of the track in two days in my studio and introduced it to DC. It took around 3.5 weeks up to the mastered finished version once DC put his parts on along w an assist from my frequent writing partner Kevin Gregory jr. How important is it for you to be versatile in your craft? Do you think the vast versatility is something that can work in the favor of all artists? For me, it is ultra important to be versatile as I love having the ability to write for anybody and in any kind of genre. It takes some work and discipline at not relying on default go-to riffs, licks, settings, etc..staying true to the genre I'm working in is fun and challenging both, I love it! I would recommend all artists and those am working with to open their musical tool chest and go get some tools(music influences) from other genres, it just may spark new fresh ideas. What is your mission statement as an artist? Again, thank you for taking the time to hang with me for a little bit, it's always fun talking music and about my babies! This a great question. Well, I can say that music is powerful, it speaks and breaks down barriers. My mission is to continue to be a part of the solution with my writing, my collabs. When listeners come to visit my music catalog, they can find a song that doesn't invade, intrude and or throw off negative vibes, just solutions! instagram.com/Kingplayerofficial
