Why @ShamefulNatalie’s new song “100 Bands” Is Music For Your Ears

Every so often, we step outside of our regular realm of sounds and gift our readers/listeners with something out of the ordinary. It keeps us, just as much as our readers, on our toes. We listen to so much, so, when we find a song that sounds unlike anything we’ve heard in recent days, we are eager to share it with the world. Today’s find comes from Natalie, an NY-based artist from Houston, and her new cut “100 Bands.” We’re going to keep it all the way real and give you three reasons why you should check it out.
Natalie knows her shit
Natalie grew up in both Chicago and Houston, meaning that she’s equally knowledgeable in drill music and the chopped and screwed scene. In a recent interview with ELEVATOR, she revealed that her music attempts to mix some of the stylings that she found in the DJ Screw tapes that she grew up on. There aren’t many people on this wave, so hearing that she’s learning from her influences should pique your interest.
Her sound is off the well-beaten path
Describing Natalie’s sound is a little harder than you could imagine. For all intents and purposes, lets just label it as “techno.” Natalie then brings in a number of creative touches that meld genres and make her music a product of all of them.
Her attention to detail is uncanny
Even something as simple as cover art, Natalie puts a hundred and ten percent in. “100 Bands”‘s cover continues a theme that her last project SHAMEFUL utilized – a simplistic item-centric cover system. Her songs also sound similar in a sense that she’s writing her own musical series – all of the pieces connect in their own special ways. That’s what makes her one of the most special artists you’ve heard recently.

Swendal Gets Super West Coast On ‘Taste Buds’

Los Angeles native Swendal is one of one and his latest LP Taste Buds’ showcases it fully. Being his first release in awhile, Swendal wanted to come back with a bang and that he did.
‘Taste Buds’ is a 25 track LP where Swendal mixes life experiences along with dope bars and metaphors that fans of good music can enjoy at any setting.
It’s a certain level of maturity from Swendal which fans of good music can really enjoy. The passion of his tone and level of wordplay is reminiscent of such as Dom Kennedy, the late Nipsey Hussle, and Blxst. However he is his own artist and should be appreciated as such.
Good company to keep for a good artist to add to your daily mix. Check out ‘Taste Buds’ below.

Zayzayy Drops New Album ‘Just Because 2’

Melodic hitmaker Zayzayy won’t let his circumstances halt him from dropping music and his latest LP ‘Just Because 2’ is a great example of that. It’s full of passion and is much appreciated to the ears of music lovers worldwide.
‘Just Because 2’ is a seven track EP that features Zay himself venting about his experiences which are relatable to not only people in his situation but also your every day consumer of music. The pockets he hits sonically are some of the best I heard this year.
“Seven songs, seven stages of my life on audio recording for my fans! Keep me in your prayers,” Zayzayy states. Seems that he is keeping faith during his downtime.
Listen below and add Zayzayy to your daily mix.

LOE Addé Releases EP ‘Still Mapping’

LOE Addé releases a two song light pack entitled ‘Still Mapping.’ In these two particular songs, LOE demonstrates his role as both an outspoken and smooth talking artist. The first song “If The Shoe Fits,” LOE is heard telling stories in what may be a part of his and others perspective and reality in a sarcastic and rhythmical manner.
The second song, “20 questions,” displays LOE asking 20 questions to a woman about what just so happens to address generic issues that one may encounter in a relationship.
The EP previews a more extensive body of work later this year. LOE (Lyrically Over Expectations) has recently been on a notable press run lately with co-signs from Foggieraw, Femdot, Gabe the host of On The Radar, Ashoka, High Snobiety, Fashion Bomb Daily, One37PM’s Tyler Walsh, and Sprayground.
The Nigerian bred and Brooklyn native emcee meshes wordplay and real life experiences to procure music for all audiences. ‘Still Mapping’ captures both of his arts perfectly and LOE’s talents are on full display cohesively.
