Join the Lyrical Ballad With North Carolina Hip-Hop Artist iiMPRESSION and His Latest Album “Diary of a Hustler”
Hailing from North Carolina, well-revered artist iiMPRESSION is hitting the industry with his album “Diary of a Hustler”. The album consists of hip hop tracks like ‘Did it again’, ‘Boss’ and ‘Cinema’ just to name a few. He has already garnered a lot of attraction with his previous releases that deliver a message through the bars. We thank the artist for sharing his time and a few words with us as we explore him a little more.
Here’s the full conversation with the artist.
Thank you for speaking with us at African Hype. What’s the first thing you hope new listeners feel when listening to your music?
I want my listeners to feel the connections and the vibes I give off in my music. It’s definitely the euphoric sounds that will capture and grab the listeners attention
“Diary of a Hustler” is captivating from the very first song to the last with its combination of hyped up beats and catchy lyrics. What was the process like when you were blending this EP together?
I was definitely aiming for catchy type vibes for the EP. From the beginning of the EP to the end, I made sure that each song had a certain algorithm that I followed that would capture all of my listeners attention. While delivering catchy vibes, I made sure I stuck to my roots and still had metaphors and bars in each of my songs to please my heavy word listeners.
What inspired the new album?
I’m from New Jersey but any chance I get I would be in New York. The New York scene is the dopest scene in my opinion. From their hard bars to catchy vibes they give is all amazing. So i did the New York drill to pay respect to their scene and let my New York listeners know im in tune with them
You’ve released an array of new music this past year. What’s been your biggest accomplishment so far and how did the Global pandemic affect your career?
Biggest accomplishment this year was reaching 25,000+ streams on spotify. Seeing that big of a number really made me sit back and realize that people are actually tuning in and really vibing to my sound. The pandemic only stop the shows i had coming up in 2020-2021, but other than that, I wasn’t gonna let anything stop me from getting where i needed to be in the music game
Which release of yours has had a large impact on your life, whether the storyline was based on a life experience or the process of putting the song together helped you approach music production differently?
“Hold On” really got people’s eyes open when the song and the video was picked up on the blog page “Elevator” once they wrote their blog and sponsored my song and video, that’s when i felt like everyone woke up and realized that i’m really going somewhere with the music. “Hold On” story line was really dope when I put it together because I was in a dark place when I wrote the song, and when everyone said they felt every word I said meant everything to me.
Do you have any dream collaborations? Who are they?
Lil Wayne the BIG Dream collab. Then its Lil Baby, Lil Durk, and Future
If you had one message to give your fans, what would it be?
No matter what, keep going. Do not let anyone control what you feel that’s right and never let anyone stop you from where your going
For our final question, is there anything else you would like to add

Internationally Acclaimed Dancehall Superstar Valiant Teams up With Jamaican Producer Weekday for an Introspective and Inspirational Masterpiece Dubbed “Grimey”
The underlying message here is that of self-belief—that you have to believe in yourself no matter what because you are your most prized asset. Also, while it feels inestimably good to win, you don’t have to do it at the expense of your soul.
Now, imagine such fulfilling lyrics, delivered with the most soulfully rich, unmistakably distinct voice of the one and only Valiant over these introspective, delicate yet expressive beats that mirror the production virtuosity of the brilliant Weekday? Sounds awesome, right? That’s what I thought.
And this is not anything new to Weekday. Time and time again, he has proved to be a peerless production scientist who crafts sonic masterpieces that transcend borders, blending the rich history of his island roots with a global appeal— “Grimey” is a perfect case example of his knack for creating soundscapes that are as dynamic as they are authentic!
This beat right here has been meticulously designed to transport anyone lucky enough to be listening. The layers in this production speak to Weekday’s deep understanding of music’s emotional power, from the delicate key-laden melodies that feel like a gentle island breeze to the booming basslines that hit like waves, down to that soulful essence of something so Afrobeats-esque that give the song a deeply felt, sincere, and profound vibe that you can only experience as opposed to just ‘hearing.’
The music video is another deeply intimate and expressive affair that perfectly suits the mood and tone of the music and lyrics. I couldn’t think of a perfect complement to this jam than this dexterously executed visual display that is as heartfelt as the song itself.
Can’t lie, “Grimey” is the best song I’ve listened to over the past week and I feel that it deserves all the hype and critical acclaim it can get. This is a true, rare sonic beauty that cannot be denied by its listener. It’s a masterpiece that reaffirms both Valiant’s lyrical prowess and Weekday’s exceptional production skills. I am willing to bet on my life!

Musician Tyran Lee Ingram Is Hopeful and Inspirational With the Uplifting Track “It Ain’t Nothing Without God (Live)”
An artistry built on a steadfast spirituality basis, there is something so atypical and yet still so accessible about Tyran Lee Ingram’s music. His music is the kind you identify with on a more uplifting, empowering, and inspirational basis as he quotes positive, affirmative words that capture the Holy scripture, but that does not mean that his music has been confined to the four walls of the church. It is music for both believers and non-believers and the common denominator is that it is the kind of hopeful and enchanting music that touches both the heart and soul, planting itself in a listener’s mind with every listen. Now that you are here, you couldn’t have possibly picked up a better time to get acquainted with this artistic genius.
“It Ain’t Nothing Without God (Live)” is an anthem of hope and belief, captured succinctly but gratifyingly with a runtime of just 1 minute and 20 seconds…that’s all Tyran needs to put across his message of hope, belief, and exaltation of God who holds all the power and maketh things happen in His own time.
The song is particularly anthemic, packed with catchy lyrics and hooks that wrap around a listener like a warm embrace, their fulfilling quality something to hold on to way outside the track’s length.
The song’s structure embodies something pop and rock, with driving, guitar-laden melodies that provide a delightful backdrop for the warm, conversationally expressive, and unmistakable vocals of Tyran Lee Ingram.
With “It Ain’t Nothing Without God (Live),” Tyran is underscoring a very important message— that no matter the circumstances, God is still the same and will forever have his presence over His creations and everything that happens, good, bad, and evil is according to His own liking.
A sincere, memorable, and uplifting tune that is short and sweet, “It Ain’t Nothing Without God (Live)” is such an easy recommendation to anyone who wants to listen to something genuine, infectious, and replayable!
