Virginia’s Breeze Barker Kicks Off The Spring With His Triumphant Single “Ring The Alarm”
Breeze Barker (@breezebarker) is a seasoned rap veteran with the energy of a #1 pick in the draft. His new banger “Ring The Alarm” marks a new era for the Portsmouth-raised emcee who has earned his stripes as an emcee throughout his decorated rap career.

Virginia Beach rapper J.R. Clark and rising talent KAI$er join forces for “Stay Solid”, a no-frills anthem about loyalty, resilience, and standing firm in a world that too often rewards the opposite. Released via Vintage Sound Entertainment, the single pairs sleek production with razor-sharp verses that reflect each artist’s commitment to authenticity—both in life and lyricism.
“Stay Solid” is more than just a street sermon. It’s a statement: one that encourages listeners to stay grounded, trust their instincts, and never fold under pressure. As J.R. Clark spits vivid lines born from real-life experience, KAI$er provides the perfect counterbalance with a smooth yet commanding delivery that underscores the song’s message. The chemistry is undeniable. The result? A track that sits comfortably between classic hustle rap and modern motivational soundtracks.
