March 26, 2020 by Gems Secrets in Hip-Hop

Listen to this song in our official Spotify playlist: 

‘Discovering The Undiscovered’

WHAT WE HAVE TO SAY:

yoitsCrash is sounding better than ever (formally known as Crash Land). For fans of hip-hop, yoitsCrash (aka Crash) sings, raps, and has even penned hooks for some of your favorite hip-hop artists such as Twista, A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie, Juicy J, A$AP Ferg and Blueface. So, to state that Crash is an excellent “songwriter” would be an understatement, he’s one of the best.

“I wrote “Change of Heart” as a result of ongoing relationships in my life that continue to give me perspective… people, places, and vices included. I changed to fit in and lacked independence. Now that I’m comfortable and on a positive path, the relationships want to make amends...too late for that.” - yoitsCrash

Crash’s ‘Change of Heart’ is setting the tone for what’s to come and if you know what’s good for you, you’ll start paying closer attention. Don’t forget to connect with the artist online to stay up to date on any upcoming projects and enjoy!

Grandtheft and Yung Tory bring the heat with new single ‘Dripoholic’

February 25, 2020 by Gems Secrets in Hip-Hop, Rap, Trap

Listen to this song in our official Spotify playlist: 

‘Discovering The Undiscovered’

WHAT WE HAVE TO SAY:

Spring isn’t here yet but Grandtheft and Yung Tory are already bringing the heat. Titled ‘Dripoholic’, the new single showcases booming 808’s and back-to-back verses from Toronto’s Yung Tory. 

Grandtheft shares his thoughts on the track:

“Yung Tory is one of my favorite new artists and the next rapper to blow out of Toronto. He’s got original flows, melodic sense, and creative energy. We have finished 3 records together so far and ‘Dripoholic’ is the first one we are dropping!

It’s also the first song we made together. We recorded this in my living room on edibles an hour after we met. I feel like there’s a lack of fun rap songs these days and I’ve been trying to make more slaps like this one.”

The track has a playful attitude and it’s extremely catchy, there’s no question about it. All in all, it’s a track that demands your attention but maintains a laid-back tone from start to finish. It’s safe to say that Grandtheft and Yung Tory are already setting the tone for Spring and Summer this year and we’re here for it.

Layto’s ‘My Final Symphony’ is a must-hear

February 13, 2020 by Gems Secrets in Conscious Rap, Hip-Hop

Listen to this song in our official Spotify playlist: 

‘Discovering The Undiscovered’

WHAT WE HAVE TO SAY:

Layto’s ‘My Final Symphony’ is a hip-hop driven production with a laid-back and poetic foundation. Birthed from a place of disempowerment, Layto has this to share about the record:

“It was something I wrote after feeling disempowered in my career. Losing management and parting ways with my team, not having success at the time. I just wrote this record as someone who was contemplating leaving, as a metaphor for leaving music. It’s a woe-is-me record… someone who feels like no one cares about him, he’s forgotten. That’s just how I felt when I wrote it. 

We love the sound and passion Layto brings to the table. ‘My Final Symphony’ is a true reflection of the artist’s vision and creativity and we can’t wait to hear what else he’s working on. Released via Cloudkid, don’t forget to connect the artist online to stay up to date on any upcoming releases and enjoy!

Chopsoe drops insane visual for Self Reality EP

Listen to this song in our official Spotify playlist: 

‘Discovering The Undiscovered’

WHAT WE HAVE TO SAY:

In the wide landscape of electronic-infused beats, one particular artist is beginning to stand out. Chopsoe, a Paris-based experimental-glitch artist, recently released his 4-track EP and it’s pretty amazing. Titled ‘Self Reality’, Chopsoe brings a unique sound to the table that we thoroughly enjoy. Both for its creativity and grit. If you love hip-hop and electronic music, you’ll LOVE this.

To top everything off, Chopsoe released a cool music video that incorporates a choreographed hip-hop dance to ‘Immortal Light’, the lead single on the EP. So, if you’re a fan of glitchy, lo-fi beats… the ‘Self Reality’ EP is worth every minute.
