NEWEST QC SIGNEE ED DOLO DROPS DEBUT PROJECT
Quality Control Music’s newest signee Ed Dolo has released his debut project Stuck In The Trap just a month after his signing was announced. Dolo is wasting no time proving he belongs amongst QC’s elite roster. Alongside the release, Dolo has shared the new video for the standout single “Dem Hoes”. Featuring production work from rap legend Juicy J, Dolo is undaunted, tackling the beat with the brash attitude and a growling drawl that is a highlight from Stuck In The Trap.
On his debut QC project, Dolo shares: “This project is personal to me, you will hear me talk about growing up broke, my momma being sick, my daddy in out of jail most of my childhood, childhood friends getting killed, everything. This goal of the project is to motivate anybody who’s been through what I’ve been through & just showing them anything is possible.”
Following his first single, “Turn Me Up” released in April, Stuck In The Trap cements Dolo’s rapid ascension through the hip hop ranks. Joining Bankroll Freddie as the second QC member from Arkansas, Dolo has broadened the spotlight for the oft-overlooked Arkansas rap game.
As a member of the group Dolo Gang, Ed Dolo received high recognition with his “FYLH Remix” feat. Dee Mula in 2018. Dolo has dropped many hit singles and mixtapes, building on his early success. Now, with the full support of the QC empire behind him, Ed Dolo aims to use his momentum to break through the barrier, cementing himself as an artist to watch in 2022.
Star2 x Sprite x Luh Kel release the new single and video “Where Would You Go?”. The song taps into the frustration of questioning someone’s loyalty to you. The verses seamlessly shift between English and Thai in a vibrant fusion of R&B-infused melodic hip hop that is both poignant and powerful.
“Where Would You Go?” was filmed at Wat Saket (The Golden Mount), which is a significant ancient Buddhist temple in Bangkok where monks live and pray. Many scenes took place in the cave on the property that displays a large replica of the towering 33 ft. “Bamiyan Buddha” from central Afghanistan that was destroyed by the Taliban in 2001, and recreated to bring back the lost cultural heritage.
“Where Would You Go?” is from Star2’s forthcoming EP, No Place Like Home, which is set to drop on May 9th.
Argentine singer Jazmín Sparta and producer Tito Lopez present leaked notes <3, an eight-track R&B album entirely in English. Inspired by private confessions people keep in their notes app, the project explores themes of love, pride, and playful detachment. Jazmín, a 21-year-old singer-songwriter from Quilmes and a former The Voice Argentina contestant, has explored pop, gospel, soul, and R&B in her past work, with her debut EP ROMPEPAGA and album CONVALESCERE tackling themes of resilience and healing. Tito, a 29-year-old composer, producer, and guitarist from Viedma, has worked with AfroSound Choir and various Argentine artists while composing for audiovisual projects like Discovery Channel. Blending gospel-inspired harmonic progressions with organic instrumentation, leaked notes <3 lets raw emotion take center stage. Released via Villa Verde, the album expands their reach, showcasing Argentine talent on an international R&B platform.
