Vana Liya, Pepper – Round n Round (with Pepper)
(Spotify)

“Yes, no doubt, -round n round- is able to charm and tear you away from reality. The composition is very well arranged and you listen to it easily in one breath, a must for your music list.”

“Да, без сомнений, -Round n Round- способна очаровать и оторвать от реальности как минимум на несколько суток. Композиция проработана очень тщательно, слушается на одном дыхании и вычёркивает из вашего списка все проблемы и заботы.”

Genre-busting female artist of color Vana Liya releases single "Round n Round" (Featuring Pepper) in advance of her upcoming debut album on LAW Records

The daughter of immigrants from Guyana, genre-defying pop reggae/dancehall artist Vana Liya made a serendipitous recent arrival on the national music scene in recent years after several of her covers of popular reggae songs went viral, gaining her the support and encouragement of top reggae artists and eventually leading to a record deal with L.A.-based LAW Records as their first-ever female solo artist.

As a young female artist of color in the heavily male-dominated world of reggae and dancehall, Vana has quickly earned a rare respect and a reputation among many of her well-established musical peers as a solid collaborator who always brings a fresh take and positive energy to the mix with her distinct yet not easily classifiable “island” vibe.

Case in point: Vana Liya’s new single "Round n Round” featuring iconic American reggae rock legend Pepper, (out now on LAW Records). Produced by multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, and Stick Figure member Johnny Cosmic, the single pays homage to LAW’s free spirit of collaboration between major and emerging artists with Vana’s raw, sweet, and ethereal vocals cascading over a meandering electronic reggae groove, and paired with Pepper frontman Kaleo Wassman’s iconically bold lyrical delivery.

Thematically, “Round n Round” relates that mystifying mix of loneliness and wanderlust familiar to the timeless wayfaring traveler and the roving artists who stray far from home to follow their muse across the globe. When Vana first started touring, far away from the familiar and often spending long hours by herself, she developed an overwhelming feeling of loneliness:

“I remember being at this house party somewhere in the Virgin Islands, people were all around me but I was still feeling so homesick that I suddenly walked outside and just started crying. But in that moment, I looked up at the sky and I saw the constellation Orion. Growing up, it was always my favorite because every time I would pull into my driveway in my house in New York I could see it. Gazing up through my tears to see Orion suddenly just made me feel like I was at home. It was this really empowering moment of peace and becoming settled in the unsettled. I'm really lonely but I'm doing what I love to be doing and everything is eternally ok.”

For Vana, having a Pepper feature on the track was a no-brainer, especially considering the song’s subject matter and the fact that Pepper’s music was instrumental in helping her overcome anxiety as a teenager.

“I remember one time when I was driving,” reflects Vana, “I heard Pepper’s ‘Sitting on the Curb’ and was like, ‘This is a really happy song so next time I have an anxiety attack, I'm gonna listen to this song.’ And that's literally how I got over the anxiety. I just put the headphones on and play it over and over and over again. This feature is such a big deal to me because Pepper is such a big part of me ...and the fact that that song was about touring and feeling okay when you're not okay kind of made for the perfect storm. As soon as I wrote it, I just heard Kaleo’s voice on the song. He did his little soft Kaleo thing and then he did his hard Pepper thing where he raps, so I feel like I got the best of both worlds with his feature!”

Upcoming live dates for Vana Liya:

7/10 San Diego, CA - Bay Fest
7/24 Orlando, FL - Dirty Heads Vacation
10/21St. Petersburg, FL - Reggae Rise Up

Scottish singer-songwriter Natalie Clark, who has reaped plaudits from Virgin’s Richard Branson and BBC Radio 1's Nick Grimshaw was selected as a Mercedes Benz KTLA "Artist to Watch” after moving to the US. Natalie was featured in the Mercedes Benz commercial campaign which also included performances at the famous Roxy on Sunset, and The Greek Theatre in Los Angeles. She was handpicked to open for the Grammy award winning Indigo Girls tour and has been recording in L.A when not busy touring the US. Natalie received acclaim from multi-platinum artists such as Christina Aguilera and Blake Shelton when she appeared on NBC’s The Voice, who praised her voice as ‘cool and powerful’ and ‘incredible’.

Since moving to the States, Natalie has opened festivals, toured the country, and was recently named a ‘Hot 100 Live Artist’ in Music Connection Magazine. She is also an official JH Audio featured artist. Her recently released Livewire E.P has already received considerable attention in the sync licensing world, with tracks being featured in several Netflix shows and an international commercial campaign.

After giving up her teaching career in Scotland to pursue her dream of writing and playing music, the rising indie-pop artist made headlines in the U.K. when Richard Branson invited her to sing on-stage at a BBC Radio 1 Academy session in Glasgow. Natalie accepted his impromptu challenge, and sang 'Weakness', from her debut EP. It prompted Branson to proclaim: “That was absolutely and utterly stunning – no backing band, no musicians, no forewarning.” He later called her “inspiring”. Grimshaw, who was hosting the BBC Radio 1 Academy event, played ‘Weakness’ and further sang Natalie's praises on his BBC Radio 1 show the following day. Branson has since written several articles about Natalie, including a recent commentary on her record release on virgin.com

3D The Boss | Sneaky Peeky | Health and Fitness Pop
(Video)

“Do you want to cheer yourself up? All that remains is to blow off the dust from the vinyl, turn on the turntable and open the windows! That warm feeling as a vingly you feel here. A seething and at the same time soothing ocean of emotions. Through the vibration of R&B rhythms to the immense waves of human emotions.”

“Желаете поднять себе настроение? Остаётся сдуть пыль с винила, включить проигрыватель и распахнуть окна! Бурлящий и, одновременно, успокаивающий океан эмоций. Сквозь вибрацию ритмов R&B до безмерных волн человеческих эмоций. ”

-Nagamag.com

Atlanta-based Health and Fitness Pop trio 3D The Boss released their debut full-length album “Push It” on April 15, 2021. Stylistically, these seasoned musicians effortlessly combine their 70’s and 80’s funk and r&b inspirations with modern pop and electro elements for a potent signature sound.

Now they’re releasing a stylish, sexy official music video for the album’s earworm of a second single “Sneaky Peeky”.

About “Sneaky Peeky”:

Sneaky Peeky addresses the sensual, sexual curiosity and imagination that are both part of human nature. Yet, many lack the courage to explore who they really are and move forward with confidence, because of self judgement. In this song, Boss Lady establishes herself as a powerful Queen who has explored herself, defined who she is and essentially says, you’d better have it together before you step to me or you “ain’t got no shotty!”

Watch the “Sneaky Peaky” music video.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PKTAGek-Xps

About the “Push It” album:

Most pop, funk & r&b projects intend for their audiences to get moving, but with 3D The Boss it’s practically mandatory. Described by visionary Saint Day Adeogba as ‘music to raise your frequency to a higher level’, the music on “Push It” is not only energetic, but it’s infused with meaning and spirit as it encourages the listener to live a healthy lifestyle. Whether you’re working out with the band during one of their live performances or just listening to the album, the songs stand on their own, each with it’s own distinct groove.

Madison Beer – Reckless
(Video)

“Bright and silvery voice from “Madison Beer” in Pop style, introduce us in a love story that ended unexpectedly… How many of us have been victims of big promises and words that weren’t kept? The artist shares her feelings with us via sound and a nice clip too.”

-Nagamag.com

https://madisonbeer.lnk.to/Reckless

Madison Beer releases the tragically whimsical video for her newest single “Reckless” today. The visual follows the release of the track earlier this month, which was Madison’s highest week debut ever on Spotify with over 4 million streams.

In the video, directed by Madison and Amber Park, Madison navigates the confusion of a lover’s betrayal inside a surreal story book world. The twisted fairytale is a melancholic but beautiful journey, with Madison emerging from the turmoil in the end as if awoken from a dream.

http://madisonbeer.com/

“I drew a lot of inspiration from classic children’s book themes for this video,” explains Madison. “I wanted the world for ‘Reckless’ to feel both disorienting and familiar, like a nightmare where nothing is what it seems and there’s no way out. Those are exactly the emotions I’ve gone through in relationships that have turned sour. When someone you’ve given all your trust to betrays you, you feel like everything you’ve ever known was a lie.”

The release of the “Reckless” video follows the announcement of Madison’s highly anticipated Life Support Tour (encompassing US and Canadian dates in 2021 and UK and European dates in 2022). For a complete list of tour dates and ticket information, visit https://madisonbeer.com/live/

Globally, Madison has over 3 billion streams across her catalogue to date, and a social following of over 25 million on Instagram, 14 million on TikTok, and 3 million on Twitter.

Becky Hill, David Guetta – Remember
(Spotify)

“There are situations in life when we have to make basic changes. Leave some things back and start over again. But what about our memories from the past? Obsession and passion can be hidden in those memories and we suddenly find ourselves vulnerable. Big truths expressed in a well-built song with the endless energy of EDM music.”

-Nagamag.com

Today show-stopping vocalist, hitmaking songwriter and dance music trailblazer Becky Hill releases her brand new single, “Remember”, a collaboration with the legendary David Guetta.

https://beckyhill.lnk.to/RememberPR

“Remember”, which is co-written by Becky Hill and co-produced by David Guetta, is the forthcoming single to be lifted from Becky’s upcoming debut studio album release.

“My whole career has built up to this moment!” says Becky “I have a sure-fire single with David Guetta, and an album I’ve spent my whole adult life making finally coming out. I’ve grafted and strived to reach this milestone for a few years now, and my patience has definitely been tested! But it’s definitely been worth the wait, as my creativity and vision for the album has now come to full fruition. It’s been an honour to collaborate with David Guetta on this release too. I feel so proud of the work I’ve created, and so thankful for the team around me who’ve stuck by me throughout this process. To the first of many, and to a very bright future ahead!”

“In my opinion, Becky is becoming one of the very rare queens of dance of music.” Says Guetta. “She has an incredible voice and it felt so good to go back to house music for this record.

“Remember” follows the release of Becky’s “Better Off Without You” ft. Shift K3Y, (which is Certified Platinum after accumulating over 600,000 sales), “Heaven On My Mind”, (which has accumulated over 65 million streams and is now Certified Gold), and the recently released Top 40 hit, “Last Time”.

Becky Hill’s debut studio album will follow Get To Know, the 2019 released 13 track collection of singles Becky either released herself or wrote and guest performed on. Get To Know is now Certified Gold after being confirmed by Official Charts as one of 2020’s top 5 most streamed albums by a female artist in the UK and peaking at no.16 on the Billboard Dance/Electronic Albums Chart in the US.

The release of “Remember” follows hot on the heels of Becky singing The National Anthem at the FA Cup Final 2021 last month and ahead of her hitting the road again. Following a string of festival dates this summer (including Reading & Leeds Festival, TRNSMT and Isle of Wight Festival), Becky will be embarking on her UK & Ireland headline tour in the Autumn. It will kick off at Engine Shed, Lincoln on Wednesday 29th September, head to o2 Academy Brixton, London on Wednesday 18th October and wrap up at Olympia Theatre, Dublin on Thursday 18th November. Due to popular demand, (with the majority of dates sold out), Becky’s 18 date headline tour will now encompass three additional shows. See below for details of all Becky’s upcoming live date. Tickets for her Autumn 2021 headline tour are available to purchase here.

With an irrefutable aptitude for writing chart smashing pop songs and a reputation as a pioneer in the electronic music scene, Becky Hill is one of Britain’s most in-demand musical exports of the moment. She has over 180 songs registered with ASCAP - no mean feat considering only 17% of PRS for Music's registered songwriters are female - and an impressive string of hits to her name. Having written and performed on twelve singles which charted in the top 40 of the UK Official Singles Chart, (including two top 10 singles, one number 1 and nine platinum records), Becky has now amassed over 2 billion streams on Spotify alone, and 1 billion streams in the UK. She has over 14 million monthly listeners on Spotify after being crowned the 2nd most-streamed British Female Solo Artist on Spotify UK in both 2019 and 2020.
