Danny Towers & DJ Scheme Unite the Florida Scene with ‘Safe House’ Album

Published

on

Connecting dots and crafting bangers while repping Florida to the fullest, Danny Towers and DJ Scheme are pillars of their home state’s underground scene. Today, the two close friends and collaborators share their first-ever joint album Safe House. Spanning 14 tracks, the high octane Safe House is a showcase for Danny Towers’ prodigious rapping abilities–his guttural voice cuts through instrumentals with ease, adding grit to soulful songs and making darker beats sound truly apocalyptic. An expert curator with ties to everyone in the Florida scene, DJ Scheme provides Towers with a diverse complement of instrumentals, tapping close associates like Nuri and Ronny J, as well as rising Florida hitmakers like BWolf201 and underground beatmakers like Hoodrixh, to craft an immersive, speaker-knocking sound.

Safe House is home to the viral single  Florida Water” ft. Luh Tyler & Ski Mask The Slump God, which earned praise from XXLStereogumHotNewHipHop, and more. “Florida Water” inspired a photo dump trend on TikTok, where creators drop the hottest selfies in their Photos app as the beat drops and Danny’s infectious hook, “Threw him in that water, I’m from Florida, but my wrist Cuban,” gives way to Luh Tyler’s croaking verse. Peaking at #1 on TikTok’s trending charts, the song generated over 200k video creations on TikTok, over 35 million streams on all platforms, and reached the top spot on SoundCloud’s daily chart.

Along with “Florida Water” is an eclectic array of bangers, designed to deliver the “that weed-blowin’, lean-pourin’, real gangsta music” that Danny promises in his viral hit. Kicking off with a soul sample, opener “Wide Awake” quickly shifts gears, riding sinister sliding 808s and fast-paced snares to deliver a high-octane mission statement. “Kreepin,” featuring Florida underground progenitor Denzel Curry, combines that buzzing bass sound with a sample that reflects the irreverent dance music that animated Miami in the 90s. Dany goes toe-to-toe with Robb Bank$ over a haunting sample of a 1970s anti-war anthem, while the Ronny J-produced pre-release single Paranoid” reverberates with a bombast that echoes The Runners, the famed ’00s production duo (credits include Rick Ross’s “Hustlin'”) from Danny’s hometown of Orlando. Meanwhile, the subdued “Chunky Monkey” finds Danny reflecting on his trapping past, comparing it to his independent rap grind with melodic assistance from Pompano Beach’s Loe Shimmy.

Welcoming additional guest spots from Babyface Ray (on single Trap Baby), and Florida rappers like Trapland Pat and C StunnaSafe House is available everywhere via TC Music / EMPIRE.

Published

on

Fans of artists like J. Cole, Nas, and Jay-Z should find solace in Tymain Robbins. The North Carolina emcee debuts his album ‘Fashionably Late’ after years of not releasing a body of work. However over the years with multiple viral freestyles including a series of BET collaborations, a dope take on a Chance The Rapper record, and a TDE shoutout on Twitter.

The overall LP is based on a diverse amount of topics coming from the words of Tymain himself.  The tracks that are the focus on this project are “Fashionably Late,” “Denim Tears,” and “Endless Possibilities.” “Fashionably Late” is about coming back after a hiatus and being better than ever due to the amount of work you put in over the off-season. “Denim Tears” plays on the title of the project, is filled with confidence and this song is about the embodiment of everything in your genes.  “Endless Possibilities” is about overcoming adversity and finding strength within ourselves. It’s one of those, “if I can do it, so can you” records.

Radamiz Releases New Single “The Monk’s Ferrari”

Published

on

BK spitter Radamiz readies fans and critics alike ahead of his forthcoming album El Duende! with the Verde Madera-produced collaboration “The Monk’s Ferrari.” The brand new track follows the FifthGod-directed visual for the NYC natives Dom McLennon & Wiki-assisted cut “Big Pharma,” taken off his well-received Gnashing, Teeth project, and successfully sets the tone for future supporting singles.

“This is the first song Verde Madera and I are releasing together after building a 10-year friendship. The title comes from a book that was at our AirBnB in Topanga called The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari. Verde had just made those two beats the morning I showed up and when I heard them, we decided to merge them before I added my vocals. I knew we had something special immediately. Verde was also the graphic designer for my last 3-song EP 3 Days Outside Your Body, so it really all is serendipitous,” says the talented lyricist in an exclusive press statement given to Medium Creative Agency.

If the soul could be translated, its imprint pressed into wax or reverberated through speakers, Bedstuy-born wordsmith Radamiz is the kind of artist who would dedicate himself to the pursuit of such a legacy. Radamiz is from the New York City borough of Brooklyn where his music, an effervescent mix of sensitive poetic musings and the braggadocious wanderings of an expansive mind, leaves no philosophical stone unturned. Yet for all his complex inner musings, the 30-year-old’s true gift is his ability to see himself in others, and then translate the unspoken dreams, fears, failures, victories, and a litany of other emotions that swirl together to create the human experience.

Press play on “The Monk’s Ferrari” below via your DSP of choice, compliments of Big Enough Home / STEM, and follow Radamiz on IG.
