I wrote it from the perspective of a working man trying to get it all for his loved ones but still faced with daily vices and inner struggles.  Temptations. To have Flo Milli on the record too is a dope connection: and her bars fit perfectly for the track.”

All editorial images for ELEMENTS, Vol.1 were shot on iPhone 12 by Mark Clennon & Makeda Sanford. The magazine explores and highlights the extraordinary stories of each creator, sharing their personal experiences and anecdotes.

TOBi offers about making ELEMENTS, Vol 1., the magazine: “To be able to collaborate with creatives from all over the world in the middle of a pandemic was amazing. The fact that we were able to pull all this off from our homes was remarkable. It shows how creativity surpasses limited time and resources. Photographers (Mark and Makeda) shot all the photos on  iPhone 12 and were deliberate, thinking of ideas on the fly throughout the project. Getting to connect and work with them through FaceTime was motivating and inspiring and using iPhone offered a really personal perspective. I definitely wanted everyone to feel comfortable and confident in their respective spaces. Everyone’s been working from home, so we brought the shoot to their spaces. I did my photo shoot in the studio where I’m working on my new album, so it felt comfortable, natural and intimate for me.”

Comments photographer Mark Clennon: “During these times, iPhone allowed me to meet and collaborate with amazing creatives from around the world on this project. Working alongside so many amazing people just reminds me that human connection is the main ingredient for creating compelling work, no matter the circumstances.”

This unique product of individuality is the definition of music artist Keem Reign. The East Coast native is in a league all of his own, with the release of his captivating album Life Goes On. Consisting of 23 unparalleled tracks, this project is so much more than a hip-hop release.

Hailing from Brooklyn, New York, Keem Reign is a budding talent full of soul, experience and imagination. Finding his inspiration for music within his own life, Keem’s creation process is filled with a variety of emotions. A major part of his personal influence in music comes from his mother and understanding her sacrifice. Keem often uses her journey of being a single mother as fuel to produce some of his most vulnerable lyrics.

This latest release serves as a reintroduction of Keem’s style and musical presence. Finding his own flare of blending rapping with singing, Life Goes On is an interesting layered project. Keem’s voice is smooth and melodic, putting listeners into almost a meditative trance. Despite the light touch, this album was heavily inspired by heartbreak. After experiencing a personal relationship turned sour, he turned to music for a type of mental reset. Singles like “Toxic”, “Sober”, “Pill Popper” and “Next Lifetime” are heartfelt depictions. As Keem Reign focuses on polishing his sound, expanding his wordplay and pushing his creativity, his imprint on hip-hop will only grow bigger.
