A Rap EP rooted In contemporary Nigerian musical culture
Looking back
"Look Forward" was released in 2017, and only recently caught our attention. The EP features 7 very strong tracks, both in terms of lyrics as musically, with an intricate mix of HipHop, Jazz and RnB/Soul.
Some healthy 'Civil Disobedience'
Bishop The Overseer exercises some healthy 'civil disobedience' in his latest release 'Battle Cry' Inspired by the historical events depicted in the motion picture “Birth of a Nation”, Bishop The Overseer releases the 4th single from his upcoming album “Nation of Immigrants."
Lágrimas de Sangre or LDS is one of the most famous Spanish bands. Although generally catalogued as Hip Hop, their music is strongly influenced by Rock and Reggae, and performs on stage with live instruments, making the live show a truly engaging experience for the fans. They are a politically engaged band, often singing about social commentary, but also have a lighter side with several party anthems and “Feel-good” music. “Volver” is definitely the new hit of the Catalan band.
This band won't fail to make you dance your ass off
Northside KUISi is a concept album narrated by news reporters from a distant future who speak an ancient, futuristic creole language made up of Lengua-Palenkera, Anishinaabemowin, Spanish and English. It’s a carefully-woven song cycle of 12 songs with an extra seven hidden compositions. Prophetic words from the future.
Heavy beats and lyrics
The composer and producer Tomba is back with his new funk-jazz project Tombajazz. Bassist Tomba has selected well-known musicians from the Munich jazz scene. With his idiosyncratic rap, Kokayi not only makes a political statement but also openly addresses the problem, so that the debate about Black Lives Matter does not remain ineffective.
