“”LocalBlac” spreads love and charm via his new single. Conscious Hip-Hop style built with melodic patterns and calm vocals. A different approach of sound, in which we aren’t used to. The result is surely interesting and the message clear too.”

LocalBlac is a Los Angeles-based artist, with roots in Little Rock, AR. He presents a melodic, hooky vein of hip-hop, with lyrics that explore the human experience with a relatable charm. “The beauty of writing is just being able to really digest everything you’ve been directly, and indirectly affected by,” LocalBlac says. “Converting that and packaging it into a condense style everyone can relate to all while upholding its full depth, and truths.”
Artist said about hsi Album Creative Process:
“This album definitely took a little bit longer to complete; I wanted this body of work to wholeheartedly reflect my continued growth, eagerness to be vulnerable, and really capture what it looks like to be an artist living in the 2nd year of a pandemic. The last part particularly you won’t be able to hear in my lyrics, but more in the tone, direction, sequencing, you know all the small details that really define the bigger picture. During the process there was more pressure than one would like; Me dealing with leaving for Japan for a year because of school, and having that back and forth dialogue on why it’s continuously getting postponed, on top of living in the now. That can weigh down on your psyche, and you lose sense of control making room for doubt, and uncertainty. Regardless of how fantastic I believe the album to be, there’s still that dark cloud that’s lingering, which ultimately I think is the most possessive part of the project when you listen to it. For example it took me 3 months to complete the Title track #14 Holding These Balloons, because something would change in my world, and now my hook didn’t make sense anymore or the second verse didn’t make sense anymore. It was the last track I actually finished late August.”
