DelvinHandsum Santiago graduated from the musical school of excellence and you can call him big fish; he goes by the name Handsum Santiago taking the world by storm by masterfully utilizing his lyrical abilities to maximum effect to create perfectly pitched harmonious tracks that sends a listener right over the edge. Coming through as the defining force in the music scene of the modern age of R&B, hip-hop, and pop whilst also managing to infuse the sounds with the pudding taste of the 90s sound in intriguing fashion to create music that rises far beyond the actual lyrics.
Since coming through with his debut EP “Covid 19’, his musical journey has been nothing short of inspiring, swiftly rising to industrial dominance with his astonishingly creative compositions, each boasting maturity and a certain level of experience that was lacking when he was starting out. He epitomizes musical growth like no other artist and after taking a temporary break from music in his early twenties, he got the chance to be reminded of his true purpose of bringing the universe joy, hope, inspiration and positivity through his music and we are glad he did for we won’t be camped here discussing his latest melodic transcendence “Back It Up” that is accompanied by an equally unique video that has already amassed over 2.8 K views in such a short period since its premiere on January 23, 2022.
The video takes a leaf from Hollywood and ensues in some captivating short film starring Handsum Santiago as (Prince Akeem Joffer), Mrs. Shi Stevens as (Mrs. Loretta), Matt Jensen as (Uber Driver) and Rashwan Harrison C.A.P as (Simmi) to headline a captivating film that prepares you for the headlining main event melodicism that soon follows in colorful fashion, the video opens up to the vivid beautiful sceneries accompanied by the slow percussion before the bass-heavy and atmospheric beat synths knock the sound out of the park in ridiculously beautiful fashion.
The heavenly rhythm is made so by the innovative, deeply diverse instruments that contain a subtle yet effective southern type of sound reminiscent of the 80s and 90s R&B and calibrated magically with the more modern retro feel of the club R&B and hip-hop might actually make your head explode. The swirling organic piano marvelously startles and adds that exquisite wall of melody and rhythm that is eternal and sophisticated. Please allow yourself to wonder, add some music to your day by following the attached link, viewing all this sensation, liking it and leaving a comment and stay right there for he is preparing for the release of the album “Handsum” and “Sugar Daddy Land”, two thrilling and diverse collections set for release later this year.

DelvinThe name itself says a lot. He really is the Grim Reaper of beats, tearing them apart with sharp flows and a voice that demands attention. His style is raw, versatile, and unapologetically direct. He moves through any beat with lyrical precision, emotional depth, and a certain streetwise swagger. That signature vocal snarl of his cuts through everything, making his presence on a track impossible to miss.
Mr.Reaper’s music is rooted in real stories and technical skill. He balances clever wordplay with a gritty emotional honesty, reflecting a life lived with intention. He can deliver introspective bars or trade fiery verses with heavyweights like Wiz Khalifa, as he did on his track “Options.” He always sounds like a seasoned veteran with the hunger of an artist still on the come-up.
He’s back with his explosive new single “One Life,” a trap-infused banger that feels like pure adrenaline. This freestyle is a battle cry for the ambitious, for the dreamers and the fighters who refuse to play it safe. With booming 808s and sharp hi-hats, “One Life” hits hard. His freestyle delivery, coming straight off the dome, is fiery and inspired. He tears through the beat with a machine-gun precision and a whole lot of confidence.
The lyrics remind us we only get one shot. Mr.Reaper keeps it real; no excuses, no shortcuts, and no holding back. Whether you’re grinding through the hustle, chasing love, or building a legacy, “One Life” pushes you to go all in. You have one life to live, so you have to make it count.
This track is all energy and inspiration. He wanted to make something that would get people off the couch, into the gym, and chasing their goals, whatever those might be. It’s all heart, showcasing his lyrical skills and a contagious energy.
Already recognized in the 2023 ISC Songwriting Competition for “Options” featuring Wiz Khalifa, Mr.Reaper continues to prove he’s one of modern hip-hop’s most compelling voices. His commanding tone and fearless lyrical approach on “One Life” only tighten his grip on the game.
What’s special about Mr.Reaper is how he puts it all out there, always giving 100 percent in his delivery. The beat, the flows, and the message are why he’s becoming a household name in hip-hop, both in the USA and beyond. People should start putting more respect on his name. He is a master of his craft and knows how to make the most of a great beat like the one on “One Life.”
Perfect for the summer of 2025, this track is made for loud speakers, late-night drives, and morning motivation. “One Life” is a mindset. It’s now streaming on platforms like Spotify, so it’s a good time to add it to your playlist and share it with your friends.

DelvinAfter spending the evening immersed in Rell Coleman’s latest work, it becomes clear that he brings a distinctive blend of modern pop and emotional nuance to his music. Coleman draws inspiration from the experimental style of Jon Bellion, the genre-mixing approach of The 1975, and the moody synth-pop tones of Nightly. The result is a sound that feels vibrant and layered, merging the lush textures of synth and indie pop with the lyrical flow of hip-hop and R&B. His approach turns each song into something cinematic, where every element serves the story and sets a vivid scene.
With his new single “Like A Drug,” Coleman digs into the lingering weight of lost love, capturing how certain connections can leave a lasting imprint. The song draws on his personal experiences, painting a clear picture of the kind of heartbreak that doesn’t easily fade, echoing long after the relationship has ended.
Coleman’s ability to blend genres stands out throughout “Like A Drug.” The track fuses shimmering synths and indie pop foundations with rhythmic hip-hop accents and smooth R&B layers. Guitar lines add emotional texture, while his melodic, sing-song vocals—polished with subtle auto-tune—anchor the song’s memorable hooks.
Both his vocal delivery and the song’s central refrain make “Like A Drug” linger in your mind. The feeling is unmistakable: this is about someone you know you should move on from, but their memory is woven into your daily thoughts, impossible to shake. The kind of attachment that is as persistent as a melody you keep humming.
This release is rooted in real emotion. Coleman’s performance makes it clear that the story behind “Like A Drug” is authentic, speaking directly to anyone familiar with the complications of memory and desire.
“Like A Drug” stands out as a modern heartbreak anthem, crafted to stay with listeners long after the song ends. It is available now on all major streaming platforms.
