Lejetski – Univers ++ Banger

Blog, Industry Spotlight, ME Blog, Music, Promo, Videos

French rapper Lejetski melds spirituality with heart and soul of hip-hop on energetic debut single 

PARIS, FRANCE – Spirituality meets hip-hop and rap with upbeat vibes on new music from Parisian artist Lejetski, co-founder of the label French Slime Rich with Issa Smith. With a punchy vibe filled with lots of energy ready to get fans all over the world turnt up, this 20-year-old artist’s fresh new sound is paving the way for a whole new niche within the hip-hop genre. His latest single “Univers ++ Banger” is his introduction to the world, and brings to light his mission to bring spirituality to the world of hip-hop and rap. It’s his debut single – and when it comes to debuts, this is one of the most outstanding to hit the music industry in a long time. 

Lejetski is a young French rapper who moved to Paris in 2019 to discover his voice as an artist in the midst of the budding French rap scene. Freestyling on the streets and posting videos on social media led him to clip and record his first songs, which went viral and created a strong fanbase for this new sound he’s introducing to the world. It’s a new wave he claims to break – something crazy and spontaneous but also natural and familiar. It’s a sound that’s hard to pinpoint and label, but which is immediately attractive to anyone who hears it. 

“I want to be one of the precursors of this sound,” Lejetski said. “I want to be one of the first to bring that level of spirituality to the world of hip-hop and rap. We are shifting into a new world, and I think I’m one of the new artists who is going to help bring that shift about to the world. I’m introducing a new culture through spiritual trap – Spiritrap!” 

Lejetski said he is not confined to a particular style because he is inspired by all genres of music – from Metal to Classical – and that he has no barriers. The more he has studied, the more he has realized that rap had really become more elevated over the years. He saw that many artists were tapping into lyrics that were deeply philosophical, but he wanted to push even further into spiritual realms. He said he’s always been a person who brings good energy with his music, and the idea of intentionally creating a new sound that pairs spiritual lyrics and vibes with the heart-and-soul of hip-hop just seemed to make sense. 

“You can hear it immediately in my lyrics and in my personality,” he said. “You can even see it with the cover art for my music – the meditative images. I want to share my good energy with the world and to inspire people to do what they love. I started experimenting and it grew over time to become something more important to me. Now it’s the main thing that I do.” 

Lejetski said he’s on a mission to become the next big international artist, and he’s excited to represent France and the progressive music that’s coming out of his home country. Alongside French Slime Rich, he aims to represent French rap and spirituality, with many other artists among his community set to join the international wave of new music. In addition to “Univers ++ Banger” – which is currently available on Soundcloud and has reached 100,000 streams in less than two weeks – he’s also working on an album that he hopes to drop before the end of the year.

GeeForce42 – Mastermind

Industry Spotlight, ME Blog, Music, Promo, Videos

Geeforce420 shows he’s a master of his craft with latest single ‘Mastermind’ 

LOS ANGELES, CA – Martial arts meets hip-hop in powerful ways on the new single from West Coast artist Geeforce420. “Mastermind” is an upbeat, anthemic hip-hop groove from this master of rap who doubles as a practitioner of the martial artist. He’s an artist who has been on a mission to build a bridge between his two loves – hip-hop and martial arts – and with this latest single he has indeed accomplished that.  

The single is yet another song that showcases the amazing talent from this seasoned songwriter of the industry. The way he has grinded and interacted with people over the years is testament to the strong work ethic and attention to detail he brings to the game. The result of that hard work is a multi-conglomerate media offering that includes apparel, film projects, and an archive of songs that can keep fans entertained for days. And through it all he displays an amazing originality in the way he creates. 

“Most people say I think outside the box,” Geeforce420 said. “I’m very creative with how I write and how I do my thing. I write about what I’ve been through and what I’ve seen and what I’ve done. I write about what I’ve achieved, or the difficulties I’ve passed through. And I use my music to help others stay focused on their goals and getting it done. That’s why I use ‘Force’ in my name – I have forced my way here. I had a goal and a vision, but it wasn’t gonna come if I didn’t force it. You gotta force the things you want. That’s the only way it’s gonna get done. Start forcing the things you need in your life. Do anything you gotta do to achieve what you want.” 

Geeforce420 has displayed this deep level of ambition since he was very young. Born Jarell Gee Cottom in 1990, he was raised in Los Angeles to a family that apprciated all the legends of hip-hop. From a young age he was listening to Tupac, Lil Wayne, Ice Cube and Jay-Z. By his early teenage years he and his brother was writing their own raps. They created a makeshift studio in their bathroom – with a radio and a mic hanging over the shower pole – and called it Bathroom Productions. He stuck with it through the years and eventually created a signature sound that is easily identifiable today.  

“My music is hip-hop how it’s supposed to be,” he said. “You can listen to my music and you’ll be impressed. I send messages out there to the people.” 

In addition to “Mastermind,” Geeforce420 has also released the single “MVP, which is another hype vibe that will get people pumped up. To listen to Geeforce420’s music, or to follow him on social media, please visit the following links:

Coach Sauce – Tae Pt. 1

Blog, Industry Spotlight, ME Blog, Music, Promo, Videos

Loss of best friend inspires artist Coach Sauce to create new album 

MANSFIELD, OH – Devall Williams, better known by his stage name Coach Sauce, is a professional rapper from Mansfield, Ohio, who has been a major player in the music industry for the past few years. He has been developing new artists under his music label HMG Muzik Group for the past two years, and recently has started his own endeavor as an artist with the release of his new album “I’m Not Sorry for the Weight.” The project is inspired by the loss of his best friend, Johnny Rob, who was the one who first encouraged him to get into music and explore his natural talent as an artist.  

“Some people say sorry for the wait, but I’m not sorry for what I’m doing,” Coach Sauce said. “I’m not sorry for the weight on my shoulders or anything I’m doing right now. I’m trying to reach out to other artists and music lovers and help people make it out and break out of the streets and the struggle and accomplish something in life. I lost Johnny Rob last year. He was my right-hand man. I’ve also lost a couple of loved ones over the past years, but he was a real deep one to me. That and the fact that a couple friends got incarcerated made me feel like it was time to make a change. Instead of having this revolving door of everyone getting locked up in the system or dying, I decided it’s time to make a change.” 

Coach Sauce said his main goal is to make music with which people can relate. He’s never going to write lyrics that don’t pull from his own personal experiences, or from some kind of experience he shared with someone else. And by sharing those experiences through song, he knows that anyone else who has gone through similar experiences will be able to relate to the everyday struggles.  

He also talks a lot about relationships and love and loyalty, the latter of which is the most important thing to him in life. Loyalty means everything to him, and he’s been known to say that he would choose loyalty over love any day of the week. That’s something that takes center stage on the standout single “Tae Pt. 1,” which is currently available across all streaming platforms. Coach Sauce said there will be four Tae songs, all of which are inspired by and serve as a dedication to his fiancé.  

“This music is mainly dedicated to my family,” he said. “HMG stands for unity and loyalty and family. That’s what this music is about. We’re all putting our pain in our music and using that to inspire other people. If we can do it, we know you can do it, too. I just want to be known for reality and authenticity and trying to reach people all around. I’m trying to get to the point where every time you hear my music, you get chills.”

D$Rich$ – Built For This

ME Blog, Music, Promo, Videos

OG Hip-Hop influencer D$Rich$ drops diamonds of knowledge on new EP ‘It Gets Greater Later’ 

DADE CITY, FL – D$Rich$ is an artist who has faced quite a few hardships throughout his life. Like many who grew up in poverty and the difficulties of street life, he often dreamed of what life could be someday. He kept telling himself that it would get greater later. Now an adult who embodies a rags-to-riches story, he has realized that prophecy and is one of hip-hop’s best kept secrets. He’s used his natural talents as a rapper and artist to pull himself out of a hard life in New Jersey and create a body of work that makes him one of the more successful musicians of the past few decades. He now lives a comfortable life in Florida with a nice house, multiple cars, plenty of land, and a good perspective on what it takes to achieve one’s dreams. And he’s sharing those lessons with younger generations of artists on his latest EP “It Gets Greater Later.” 

Currently available across all streaming platforms, the new EP chronicles the life of D$Rich$ from his time as a young boy in New Jersey, to his teenage years fending for himself at age 13, to the heartbreak and tragedy of losing his own son to the streets in 2016. It tells tales of peril from various experiences on the streets, but also offers hope in unexpected ways as he weaves through moments that propelled him beyond being another sad statistic and product of his environment.  

“It’s all true facts,” he said of the project. “It’s about how life can change around you when you get focused. It’s about the life you should be living and the finances you should have and the moves you should make if you want to get ahead. And it’s a project that shows a new sound because it comes from someone from the boom-bap generation of original hip-hop, but combined with a sound that’s relevant and new and fresh for today. If your music is timeless and you have that gift, it’s gonna show. It’s getting great for me. I used to have nothing, but it gets greater late

The debut single from the project is “Built For This,” which further explores the concept of rising from the ashes and building a life for oneself. It’s an upbeat and inspirational track that almost serves as an anthem as D$Rich$ uses the metaphor of a diamond formed from extreme pressure to illustrate how even the most difficult of situations can shape and mold us into something beautiful and brilliant. 

“All the pressures I went through made me built for this,” he said. “That single is a lesson for anyone. I’m teaching them how to survive on the streets. It’s like a little mini survival kit. I got to where I am because I applied what I’m telling you in this song. I’ve been a lot of places and worked with a lot of big names in the industry. I helped create some of the sound you take for granted in hip-hop today. And I hope when all is said and done I’m remembered as one of the greatest musicians you ever heard. I came from nothing and made something. And now it’s time for me to leave these lessons and knowledge for the younger generations.”

Alex Costova – On My Way

Industry Spotlight, ME Blog, Music, Promo, Videos

Atmospheric Synth-Pop fills fans with energy on new anthemic song of the summer ‘On My Way’ 

BOSTON, MA – The song of the summer is already here. “On My Way” is the latest hit single from internationally recognized artist Alex Costova, and its upbeat energy and powerful vibes are already creating a strong buzz among industry insiders with whispers that it will be the standout track for the summer. Featuring two up-and-coming female artists Jamara and J!NX! the single is a synth-pop track that melds elements of Soul and EDM in ways that are equal parts subtle and substantial. Alex Costova has truly created a marvel of entertainment with this ambient electronic groove of sound, and the soaring vocals of Jamara and J!NX! take the song to a whole new level. The masterful polishing strokes from engineer Shane Violette puts the perfect touch on this incredible collaboration of highly talented artists at the top of their game. 

Based out of Boston, Massachusetts, Alex Costova is a rising alternative pop recording artist who has steadily been making a name for himself over the past few years as one of the go-to hit-makers in the industry. His atmospheric sound creates a relaxing environment that is layered with catchy, soul-driven lyrics over progressive electronic melodies. Those in the industry who know about him are clamoring to work with him, and producers like Shane Violette are sending the cream of the crop of their young artists to collaborate with him. As Alex Costova’s music has progressed and matured, he has partnered with talented engineers and other artists, who he said have shaped his music and allowed him to reach his full potential as an artist. 

“People like Shane Violette have taught me so much,” Costova said. “My music career has really started to take off over the past year, and I’ve come a long way with collaborating with a lot of great artists. To work with other creative minds like this makes me ecstatic. It helps me to grow as an artist. Watching how Jamara and J!NX! introduce different ways to sing on a song or create something new that I never would have thought of just makes everything better. I look at my sound as being my own and not really comparing to anyone else out there, but it is influenced by other great artists – such as Adam Young of Owl City, or Tom Delonge of Angels & Airwaves, or EDM Recording Artist Gryffin, and especially those I collaborate with. Ultimately, I hope I’m making music that hits the hearts of anyone who listens to it in ways that grab them and take them in and make a difference in their lives. That’s the biggest reason I make music.” 

Costova said he knows “On My Way” can be one of those songs that really makes a difference in a person’s life. Not only is it upbeat and filled with the kind of energy one might associate with the summer, but it’s also anthemic and inspirational in its drive to motivate people to embrace their gifts, talents and abilities to achieve their dreams.  

“It’s so powerful because of what’s going on in the world right now,” he said. “A lot of people feel set back because of COVID and wars in the world and different issues that we’re all facing. With this song we’re sending the message to keep on fighting for what you want in your lives. We’re on our way. No matter what, don’t give up on yourself. Don’t give up on your dreams. Keep moving forward. It’s the beginning of a journey, and we’re all walking and singing toward the great things that come through that journey.” 

Costova said he’s hard at work on even more music that he plans to release later this year, including the next single “Mine,” which he said should drop toward the end of the summer.

La’Mariona – Boomarang

Blog

Bold new female rapper La’Mariona offers warning to the world with new single ‘Boomarang’ 

NORFOLK, VA – What you put out into the world always comes back to you. If it’s good, more than likely you’ll receive good in return. But if it’s bad, the negativity will bounce back in ways that are more painful than you might realize.  

That’s the sentiment behind the new single from DMV artist La’Mariona. “Boomarang” is a hard-hitting song that not only showcases the originality of this fast-rising young artist, but also offers a feel-good vibe for music lovers all over the world. Produced by Zukhanbeats – the same producer who has worked with Jay-Z, Kendrick Lamar, Ludacris and “WeFlyHigh” Jim Jones, among others – “Boomarang” is a tale of karma over an upbeat vibe that is sure to have heads bobbing, feet moving and girls twerking. 

“When you throw a boomerang, it comes back to you,” La’Mariona said. “That’s life. What goes around, comes around. Whatever you put out there in the atmosphere comes back.” 

The single is one in which La’Mariona said her fresh take on hip-hop will help her to stand out among the other female artists of the genre. She said she avoids talking about subjects in the normal way most female rappers do, choosing not to use sex and her body as a selling point for her music. La’Mariona would rather become known as an intelligent artist who talks about “real stuff.” Through that work, she hopes to be able to inspire other females to embrace their independence and boldly live without the co-dependency on men. 

“Ladies don’t need dudes to be in their lives to be successful,” she said. “You don’t need a partner all the time, and you don’t need a man to affirm you. I hope to inspire girls to follow in my shoes. You can be yourself. You can be independent. You can make money on your own. I’m different than any other female rapper out there because I say things how I want to. I’m not like anybody else, and people are going to see what I’m made of when they hear this music.” 

La’Mariona said “Boomarang” is the first single off a new album she plans to release later this year called “BAM (Bitches And Money).” The 12-song project will continue to explore themes that have to do with the ups-and-downs of life. Prior to its release, La’Mariona said she wants to release another single from the project called “Never Truss,” which will be more of a heartfelt upbeat song perfect for the summer.
