First Thoughts on “Raw 2.5”

Coach Joey’s latest star-studded collaboration comes in the form of “Raw 2.5,” featuring FMB DZ, Tay B, and Skooly. The quartet’s ability to effortlessly weave in and out of the invigorating production highlights the differences in their approaches – in the best ways possible. FMB DZ’s verse, upon first listen, is deadly; a call to arms for Detroit’s paragons that have gotten lazy, even if he’s spitting about the finer things in life.
The production on “Raw 2.5” is instantly familiar, yet boldly original. It packages up the Detroit aesthetic – fast, ear-shattering music – and adds a unique, haunting spin. The end result is enchanting, managing to, at once, be familiar, while also being boldly original. If you’re a fan of the Detroit sound and looking for something that sounds similar yet offers an exciting new angle, “Raw 2.5” is the song for you.

Star2 x Sprite x Luh Kel Drop “Where Would You Go?”

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.
