“Take a deep breath and pause for a short break with "Kaanin" and "Aebeats". Your Hip-Hop cure is only one clik away. Fast and effective, simple but with enough power. Absolutely worth listening.”

“A musically vibrant blending of a variety of genres including Hip Hop, Soul & Reggae that would be as much at home in Kingston as it would be in New York, or London. The message is clear ‘Tell Me What side I’m on?’ The answer equally as clear. Racism has no place in the World. ”

The singer Katie Burke wakes up sober and Skype’s with her fellow musician Rocksteady Fred in Sweden. Together they are the duo Silent Nancy and they talk about how to fill the upcoming album with fantastic music. The conversation will soon be about the injustices that characterize American society. Why do significantly more white’s than black’s survive Covid 19? Also, can something be done about the widespread racism within the police force?
Together with Shaka The King, the idea for the song Tell me what side I'm on was born. Shaka runs a vegan restaurant, stands on the barricade, gets his worst frustrations out as a boxing instructor and raps late at night at the toughest underground hip hop clubs in New York. He has no problem making a song that questions society. Tell me what side I'm on, is a mix of Hip Hop, Soul and Reggae. Katie's unic voice and Shaka's rap stand out in the support of the Black Lives Matters movement. Silent Nancy plans to release two more singles next spring and the album will be released in the summer of 2021!
About Silent Nancy
A Molocow Cocktail of emotions is thrown to the air in this song, For those who don’t know. Katie Burke grabs your heart and won’t let it go until she sings the last tone of this massive reggae / soul ballad. The riddim is actually built up on a reggae riddim but sounds more like an old school soul song when Burke completes the harmonies with her voice. This was the first song Rocksteady Fred and Katie Burke ever made together and the chemistry soon led to the making of two albums! The first Album will be released this summer while the second is still cockin…

“A very bnouncy track that combines a powerful arrangement, Raucus chanting vocals and vivid, rich lyrics. The dynamic verse riff has an unreal level of epicness. Nice work done in old school hip-hop style.”
“Очень бодрый трек, который сочетает в себе мощную аранжировку, жёсткий распевный вокал и яркие, насыщенные текста. Динамичный куплетный рифф и нереальный уровень эпичности. Хорошая работа, выдержанная в стилистике старой школы hip-hop.”
-Nagamag.com
This song is about wanting to live life to its full potential. Taking risks and being aware of the inevitable, and doing something about it.

“Balancing between Instrumental and Hip-Hop, "Ogi Feel the Beat" delivers a slow bpm piece. Steady beat and percussion loops standing with delicate effects and melodic samples. When such an experienced artist makes music, we shouldn't miss it.”

Skripture Re-Emerges Releasing His Highly Anticipated Music Video
https://www.skripture.co.uk/
The South West London Rapper/Producer Is Back on The Rap Scene With More Creativity and Drive
Skripture is dropping his first music video today, “Journey” to kick start the campaign on his latest EP Bally. With 2 EP releases already this year, Multi-talented Skripture gives us his first visuals to his thought-provoking single.
“Journey” is produced, written and mixed and mastered by Skripture. The song contains poignant lyrics revealing the vicious cycle of life when coming from the inner city of London, the bad and ugly and the long-lasting impacts it has on the heart, mind and soul. How you have to keep moving forward, even if you’re afraid, things aren’t fair or you don’t know where you’re gonna end up.
“It was inspired by the surroundings I grew up in and how they affected my decision making in situations that could have ended up with me paying a heavy price. Even though I knew better I still put myself in those situations. It’s a very personal track, hopefully people will see the message I was trying to portray with the concept.”

“-God First- presents musical discoveries and experiences of a rare, exceptional kind. The song that chills to the bone, even those who used to be far from the most creative -Follower of Christ-.”
“-God First- дарит музыкальные открытия и переживания редкого, исключительного рода. Песня, которая пробирает до самых костей даже тех, кто раньше был максимально далёк от творчества -Follower of Christ-.”

Artist shared his words about this song with Nagamag:
” It’s very important to always put God first in everything we do, you’ll never go wrong when you make that choice. This song tries to explain the importance of putting God first to avoid facing many tough obstacles that we could otherwise avoid which can lead to feeling lost in life.”
“From the -Middleman- single you can expect a powerful breakthrough of old-school hip-hop, also felt like a monumental miracle. This is another proof that -Leeroy Jelks- is able to make you so thirsty of music in general.”
“От сингла -Middleman- ожидаешь прорывную мощь старой школы hip-hop и ощущается он как монументальное чудо среди прочих. Это ещё одно доказательство того, что -Leeroy Jelks- то, чего так жаждешь от музыки в целом. ”

He released his first single, "Juice from concentrate" to lukewarm reception which showed him that he still had a long way to go before reaching the pinnacle that he felt he deserved. After releasing his first project, "Shadow boxing with the lights off" in 2017, Leeroy took a year and a half off to hone his craft before making more music again.

“‘Feel It’ is the first track on the debut EP by Canadian rap duo HarveyDent. Namely, EV Thompson, & Kurlz. Grimy, hard hitting with high energy, ‘Feel It’ is a bold & unashamed shout-out to the golden era of rap. An underground vibe that cuts across & balances the divide between old school & currently relevant.”
-Nagamag.com
This is the first song from the first ep released by HarveyDent. We formed the group throughout the pandemic and since we couldn't attend our usual studio we recorded the entire project DIY. It's a grimy, lyrically brazen collection of songs. Lots of mic passing, and draws comparisons to golden era rap groups with a flavour that works in 2021.
https://www.instagram.com/weareharveydent/
HarveyDent is a Canadian rap duo with a lyrical style reminiscent of underground rap from both coasts, and transcends eras with an old school vibe in a relevant style.
The group is comprised of internationally touring artist Ev Thompson, and his crew mate Kurlz who has played shows across 4 Canadian provinces. Together they bring a high energy style that's refreshing to hip-hop purists.
