“’F With U’ is a song that gives the bullies, haters, and bad ex’s a simple taste of their own medicine.

Tune into the visual for “Sense of the Rain” above now and read a quote from Dennyiah below on the release!
“It’s about the elusive sensation of an invincible life force coming from within. Losing the ego and idealised and pre-constructed idea of self. That’s when nothing around changes. The only thing that changes is your perception and the fact that it doesn’t have the power to go under your skin anymore because it’s always been disconnected from the true within. Bad things good things – it’s all the same – what matters is how much you let it drag you down. This song speaks about the short moment of enlightenment, about the deep connection to everything without the heaviness of reaction.”

Posted by VMan on January 7, 2022
Solo electronic artist OHMYGi has a ton of momentum going her way, “I’m Danger,” is the next extension of the non-stop energy that she’s able to bring to the attention of the masses. Within the video are plenty of themes that fit well with her established brand. A careless, near-reckless attitude, dystopian settings she places herself in, and rhythmic verses layered upon a bass-heavy instrumental epitomizes what’s going on at the core of this video. Wild and dangerous, the in-depth, hard-hitting aspects going on makes it difficult to peal the eyes off the video. Considering she’s been in the game for years and has her own strong following, it’s safe to assume her fans will be frothing over what’s she’s cooked up in this video.
The single is a tease of her upcoming album Danger in Pink, which is expected to be dark and heavy, but dynamic and unexpected as well. Knowing both Spanish and English, she uses this to her advantage in the music which makes her abilities to reel new fans in that much wider.
A singer, songwriter, and DJ, OHMYGi has laid out quite a roster over the long term, with more releases soon to come this year.

Posted by VMan on January 6, 2022
“I’d honestly say it’s about letting go, reminiscing on the past and ultimately deciding to end things because it just wasn’t good for you. “Messages turn green, remember they used to turn just blue” which is what I say in the hook refers to being blocked on iMessage. Basically the messages (blue) stop being instantly delivered and show up green instead. Signifying the end of a relationship and remembering a time before it all ended.” said lil a-lik on his single “Call Me” and it’s meaning. His vibe blends together the influential modern hip-hop style, alongside aspects of rock and emo intertwined, in what is a cutting edge, sonically diverse sound.
