Amite City, Louisiana artist RealMuzikSK is back with his newest release of 2023. ‘Perfect Timing’ is a 6-song EP that RealMuzikSK is excited to share with his audience. Fresh off a string of recent releases, SK is bringing in a whole new vibe this time around. He’s improved on his craft and is ready to take over your streaming platforms once again. 

“The tape is about good times and positive vibes I put together and was experiencing in the last 2 months,” he said. “It all came together, you know, perfect timing.”

As far as his upbringing, the reason he pursues music is personal. It has hardly been a smooth ride for Realmuzik as he experienced periods of homelessness after dropping out of school at 16. Focused on pursuing a musical career rather than a formal education, he has experienced the pain and struggle to survive, and despite all of that, makes Hip Hop that truly touches the soul.

“I say perfect timing is the right timing. It’s about how I really felt in the moment and every song speaks about a different moment and feeling.”

With an addictive flow and intoxicating melodies that RealMuzikSK is known for, the songs are unique in every single way and speak to his own experiences and the world around him. The newest EP ‘Perfect Timing,’ quite literally arrives at the perfect time, and sets the tone for what listeners can expect from the rising artist moving forward this year. The rising star is undoubtedly set to capture the attention of audiences on the global stage.

“I just want the audience to feel the same way I felt when I was making the records,” RealMuzikSK says. “I want them to feel that motivation and inspiration when they hear the music.” 

Check out ‘Perfect Timing’ below.

AD22, a promising Toronto rookie, has released his new track “Night Shift,” which is available now.

His single “Night Shift” follows his “Oasis Interlude,” a little uptempo dance song with his easygoing vocals and piercing lyrics that pervade our hearts and brains quickly raising racy thoughts and sensations irrevocably.

His most recent offering, on the other hand, comes with the promise that “this will usher in a new era” for him and his audience, as the Egypt-born artist declares.

“(Night Shift is) an introduction to an AD22 that is more vulnerable and honest.” ‘Night Shift’ is the first of a new series of songs from AD22 in which he speaks up about suppressed previous traumas.

“Night Shift” marks a significant shift in direction for AD22 in terms of context and sound, and listeners are in for a treat when they hear it.

“In terms of instrumentation, lyrical matter, and intensity, ‘Night Shift’ marks the beginning of a new era, “According to AD22. “This single is basically about broadening the variety of listeners, being able to appeal to a wider audience, and gently peeling back the layers to reveal who AD22 is.”

Toronto has it all, from the larger-than-life OVO roster to underground emoters Ramriddlz, producer Stwo, Frank Dukes, juggernaut and multi-platinum producer Boy1da, River Tiber, and frontal mega superstars The Weeknd and Justin Bieber, and their latest star-in-the-making is none other than reserved impassioned record producer and songwriter, AD22.

The music mogul’s razor-like voice cuts through the soothing and euphoric ambient instrumentals as he spews passionate tales about his past, goals, and a slew of love-themed poems strewn across the dark, wintery, and snuggly chords.

So far, he’s been able to put out a catalog of impressive records like “High Fashion,” “Vibe With Me,” “Till We Die,” and “Down For You,” which have helped him build a fan base, and as grateful as he is, his eyes are set on the future as he aspires to be as big as his idols like Jay Z, Nipsey Hussle, Drake, and UK’s Santan Dave, with whom he’s met

“I’m an avid listener,” he says. “I enjoy listening to music from a lot of different genres.”

“I’ve found that listening to genres outside of the context of the music I make is both stimulating and a good way to keep my individuality,” she says “He keeps going. “Jay Z, Nipsey Hussle, Drake, and Santan Dave, who I had the pleasure of meeting and who offered me with inspiring advice, were some of my significant influences that motivated me to pursue music.”

Look out for his “Night Shift” single, which will further cement his place among the greats, despite the fact that he is still in the early phases of his highly anticipated career. The song will take us on an endless journey of what it means to be “on the grind.”

“It’s about capturing the energy of what a typical night out for me is like. It is a combination of different stages throughout my life, reflecting on times where I would work long hours throughout the night, making records, making money. Through the mellow, calm sound that encompasses me as an artist, I created a record that people who always strive to achieve more can relate to. In simple terms, ‘Night Shift’ is inspired by the grind.”

Jamaica-born artist Chucky Royale is giving us a gift on his birthday with the release of his latest single “Chawp Chawp.”

This melodic track comes during a time of year where visits and parties with friends and family are at their height and when listeners press play, they will be instantly transported into what it’s like to celebrate Chucky Royale-style which is the song’s intent.

“The inspiration to this project is my Jamaican party culture. A fun night out with me and my people,” Chucky said. “Growing up in Jamaica, partying and celebration is a way of life, It’s our culture. So this song is showing how we party and get down.”

 Royale said that the term “Chawp Chawp” translates into “hurry.”

 “I’m telling my people to hurry up so the party doesn’t miss us,” he says in a recent interview. “And then we proceed to have a phenomenal night.”

While “Chawp Chawp” has that island-like vibe and feel, it’s also fused with hip-hop to create sounds inspired by Chucky’s experience living in both Jamaica and the United States. 

“I would describe it as New Age Dancehall music geared to incorporating Rap/Hip Hop culture,” he said when asked about his unique sound. “Half of my music will make you want to get up and dance, the next half will have you thinking and holding some meditations on life.”

When asked what he hoped listeners take away when listening to his newest work, Royale said “Work  hard so we can all really enjoy life together because we only get one life to live.” With the holiday season in full swing, this is certainly something to keep in mind as we connect and spend time with loved ones. 

Stream “Chawp Chawp” here and be sure to tap in with Chucky Royale in the near future because this is an artist you’ll definitely want to keep on your radar.
