In this segment we’re giving life to the leagues of music being dropped every week during this trying, yet, interestingly enough, personal time. We at Nefarious Supply want you guys to always have a new underground project or creator, either on your mind, on your playlist, or on your feed in some way, shape, or form. In this instance, we’re doing this on an episodic basis and deciding to write on all the new music coming in through this station, five tracks at a time.
Our fourth episode reminds us exactly what it means to be an artist in this day and age, the hustle, the love, the fans, the hate, the overall struggle for success, if it isn’t about music then it isn’t worth talking about, and the artists listed below make that known with their talent!
Take a look! 😈
BBE Chinaman - Underdog
BBE Chinaman is a DMV native who has been on our radar since the drop of his track LIFESTYLE last year. The rapper is rising in the area for his quick yet heavy delivery, and his effortless flow switches. Underdog is something of a self-explanatory track, where the artist reveals his struggles with lost friends, an absent father, his drive to get to the top, his condemnation of any beef that comes his way.
Room Noir - Grow (ft. Amaya Alicia)
Produced by Nefarious fav, Downsilence, Room Noir debuts on our Isolation Station with is murky and aesthetically pleasing track, Grow. Noir speaks on topics of emotional development, staying faithful and grounded in your significant, while Amaya Alicia slides on the beat as smooth as can be. She laments about the hustle and bustle of their lives, however reconciles by knowing that they have grown together and want this for each other.
Roseryhills - Settle Down (ft. Dazeoneast)
Two of our favorite artists, Roseryhills and Dazeoneast have collaborated on this steamy and comfy track. The two blend their voices like butter on toast and at some point you just have to sit back and admire the beautiful crooning mixed with the warm and expansive production. Daze’s verse guides the listener along to the latter half of the track. His flow is distinctly different from Rosery’s however it only adds another layer to this already delectable cake. The voice message at the end is a beautiful touch too.
Dontaskgen - Honey on the Hive
Dontaskgen’s second breakout single since his album dontaskforlove. Dontaskgen is another Nefarious favorite and you check out his interview here! On Hone on the Hive, Gen is caught between pain and pleasure. He knows the situation he’s getting himself into is either going to hurt him going in or eventually, however, he likes the pain, embraces it even, in order to get to that symbolic “honey” which I’m sure could mean many things to many people. Honey on the Hive is a racy and deliberate track over a very dark and full production style, making it another smooth beauty from Dontaskgen.
Apollo1027 - LIFE I CHOSE
Apollo1027 is back with his new “leaked” single LIFE I CHOSE. Apollo is smooth and on point throughout the entirety of the track, bringing the topic statement of this week’s Isolation Station to a head. Apollo knows exactly what he’s gotten himself into with getting into the music industry and he doesn’t regret it one bit. He promises to bring his entire team up with him to the top and knows he isn’t going to fold. The beat switch at the end was a nice touch, wrapping up the song in a lovely bow.
