$avvy - Calling it Quits


Calling it Quits is the latest single from our Nashville-bred star, $avvy. Coming off the hot release of his new video for “Zack & Cody” a smooth ballad from the shiny, braggadocious, yet intricately contemplative Boys Wear Pearls. On this new track, one that has been the headline for his newly advertised “BEFORE POOR TOUR”, Savvy comes to grips with the end of a tumultuous relationship. It seems as if both parties know the end is near with Savvy admitting how toxic the entire situation has been so far, though not without throwing a mild, tongue-in-cheek jab at her not-so-good behavior. It sounds like another classic is on the horizon for $avvy, and if anyone is tuned in, you know we are. 

 

Nas - Rare

Nas is a legend. We all know this, that isn’t what this is about. King’s Disease is so much more than the legend itself, it’s about what you do with all the power that you now have that matters, and Nas makes that evidently clear on both his King’s Disease and King’s Disease II albums. Both produced by famed hitmaker, Hit-Boy.  The song “rare” especially stands out for its floaty yet grittily grounded juxtaposing production. Nas speaks on how the heights he’s reached have formed him into a new breed of rapper, a rapper in rare form. The beat switches midway and Nas begins to lay down intellectual lyricism over a more slowed down and deliberate beat. Ultimately our favorite song on the album, minus the Lauryn Hill feature of course ;). 

 

Marquel - COLD

Marquel has been on a fire streak for the past few weeks. After the release of his new album, Love, Rage & Enlightenment, Marquel hit new heights of stardom and recognition in his community, simultaneously cementing himself as a young star in the making. On the track COLD, executive produced by 301Music, a local and upcoming producer within the DMV area, Marlon bares his soul at his conflict with a girl 

Hatesonny - WHAT U KNOW BOUT THAT (ft. 3name)

Hatesonny is back! The young Chicago legend is making waves once more since the drop of his music video for .Lead single “Kill Bill”. WHAT U KNOW BOUT THAT is a sonny-bred banger with the signature touch the artist leaves on all his trap-infused alternative production. The song is simply a vibe, check it out in anticipation of his new album!AGNB!

 

Shaker - My Bad

Shaker is a new artist on our platform but one that needs recognition, especially after the drop of his latest single, “My Bad”. With an almost masterful use of autotune, Shaker croons over a broody and melodic instrumental, one which compliments his voice and subject matter so well that it almost sounds as if they’re responding to one another. The topic of this track stems from feelings of nonchalance and apathy. Shaker mocks his haters and asks why they’re really so cross with him? Was it because they weren’t making money? Was it because they had no love in their lives? Shaker inquires with mirth and spite. 

 

Intro - Jump Out the Whip

Intro’s Jump Out the Whip takes a nice flow, reminiscent of a current Isaiah Rashad, with the dreamy and the full production dancing in the background, creating a colorful atmosphere for the rapper to get his thoughts off of his chest in a calm and clever manner. On the song, the rapper talks about how to get ladies with just a sniff, how he’s stylish even in some ones and a pair of sweats, how others can keep their woman down, especially after he Jumps Out the Whip. It’s a very chill vibe that was a nice inclusion to our list. 

 

Foolie $urfin & ihateyouALX - Loading…

Foolie $urfin and ihateyouALX cruise atop a beautifully sparse and deep-pocketed production. The two artists trade verses about growing up in the trenches with pipe dreams of becoming famous one day, even though they still have bills to pay and still eat fast food daily to get by. Also topics of hate, high stakes, Kobe reminiscence, getting high to feel inspiration, and a promise to give it your all before ever thinking of hanging it up.

We promised you didn’t we? A whole playlist dedicated to underground talent all around the world, well here we are. Welcome to the first volume of our Demon Discography, a playlist o tracks compiled of underground artists we’ve been listening too over the past few weeks. This playlist will drop a new volume every single month, filled with new sounds and beautiful creations from artists in R&B, rap, hip-hop, and indie and much more!

In this month’s discography, we have artists such as Ari PenSmith, Amaarae, and Eli Sostre, smooth yet affirmative paladins of the underground community, as well as newcomers such as Mustafa, Artie J, Dee Gotti, and Brandon Banks who’re taking their sound to new heights!

Of our substantial and well-endowed list, we’ve picked our heaviest hitters and the most fire tracks in our opinion, however, give the playlist a listen and tell us in the comments what your top five tracks are! We’d love to hear your thoughts!

SwaVay - Okay

Probably the most lyrically aggressive track on our favorite five, SwaVay strikes again while the iron’s hot, with a 21 Savage tag to start the track off the listener already know the Boominati Worldwide artist is going to deliver. Okay showcases SwaVay’s lyrical ability to the max, with bars such as:

“If I did it on my own, tell me, who the fuck I'm gon' thank?

And I'm pullin' up on niggas with that brick, no, I ain't Craig”

SwaVay shows his versatility and hunger as a new artist and puts the now Dolo Records label he’s signed too even further on the map with his pure talent and creativity.

NJOMZA - sad for you

NJOMZA’s titular song off her sophomore album takes us into a magical place off of the first note. The artist’s butter-smooth vocals gliding along the light-hearted synth pulls and comfy 808, which halts and heeds at the very utterance of her lyrics. sad for you was made for NJOMZA if that makes any sense. This meaning we don’t believe anyone could’ve pulled off or added anything else to this song to make it as perfect as it is. The song talks about heartbreak and being past the point of raw emotions such as anger and sadness, with some reflection, NJOMZA realizes she’s simply disappointed in her lover, and at this point in her life, she’s sad for them.

reggie - Southside Fade

reggie blows the competition away with this anecdotal, Kendrick/Earthgang-esque track. Southside Fade has reggie speaking on topics of the lack of gun laws in the Southside, and how Houston is so big you feel like you’re on top of the world when you're on it. A folky indie alternative production helms around reggie’s lyricism, and the guitar progression leads the instrumentals all into place, Southside Fade is a beautiful letter to Houston, one reggie executes perfectly.

Artie J - A Thousand Winters’

This song is on our favorite five for one simple fact, one that’s plagued the other tracks on this list. It does exactly what it’s supposed to do. If Artie J was aiming for a soulful R&B vibe with dreamy, reverbed vocals made to give off a somewhat melancholy, yet hazily beautiful atmosphere? Well, we’d say he’s succeeded. A Thousand Winters’ is produced just right and the piano chord progression ties the song together throughout the 3 minutes and 10 seconds, and the beat switch towards the end gives us a fitting closer for such an outstanding track.

Amaarae - FANCY

Our final track from this months favorite five, FANCY explores Amaarae in a more upbeat and bragggadocious light. She metaphorically dances through the halls of the track, dimly lit and alluring, while the spotlight is all on her and her infectious hook. The song is quite short but is quite a vibe, and doesn’t spread itself too thin in terms of what it’s trying to do. Amaarae flexes all over FANCY, and lets everyone know, she has smpke for whoever wants to try her, and time for whoever wants to call her “Zaddy”
