Interview: Lee Rixson Shares Insights on His Musical Journey

After Lee Rixson’s exceptional single “Broken Love” was released, we caught up with an insightful interview with such a talented artist to explore his eidetic experience and what he had to say about his incredible musical journey so far. Read below to learn some interesting details about Lee Rixson

Where do you originally hail from and where are you based now?

I never “hailed” from any one specific place.  I moved around a lot as a kid with my mom.  I still live in central WI, but feel the mountains calling me south in the near years.

“Broken Love” is captivating from the start to finish with a combination of unique beats and catchy lyrics. What was the inspiration behind the single?

I appreciate that.  “Broken Love” was a song that helped liberate feelings of broken love in my own personal life.  I like to think of “Broken Love” as the contrast to another single of mine “Before you Go”.  The inspiration for “Broken Love” stems from the gut feeling of knowing a relationship isn’t going to last.  Weather the fracture or fractures be within yourself, partner or each other.  I’m sure many can relate to staying in a relationship longer than you probably should.  Though, we stay anyway because it’ll get better or change right? “Oo baby don’t let me down” as one lyric sings in the song haha.

You have an amazing voice. Are you vocally trained?

Although I do sing, the vocals on “Broken Love” are not mine.  However, my voice can be heard on “Warm Your Heart” which is on Spotify as well.  “Broken Love” is a mixture of spliced vocals and mixed leads from a singer named Lewie B.  I’m not opposed to singing on my own produced tracks.  However, I find that I love working with different voices depending on what I feel the song needs & or what a song could benefit from musically, to make the listener feel the message/vibe.  I like being the one behind the scenes and being 100% hands on from start to finish.  Someday I’d like to release a personal EP with just my piano and vocals when I feel the timing is right.

What has remained as your constant source of inspiration?

The constants of life!  My music is a hybrid of many genres which I think reflects who I am as a person too.  I’m always open to new experiences, people, sounds, landscapes, ways of thinking, etc.  I feel it’s my job as an artist to experience life immensely and then report back to the world.

How do you motivate yourself when things are not going your way as your profession requires a lot of effort?

If making music ever starts to feel like work, then I need to reevaluate what it is I’m working on creatively.  Doing what you love should never feel like a task or work.  I stay motivated by learning the balance of knowing when to take a break, step back, and recharge.  Sometimes the longer you stare at something, the more it loses all its simplicity.  I’ve had some projects that I was really excited about in their beginning stages.  However, then my mind overthinks every decision making it lose its original spark that got me excited in the first place.

Do you have any dream collaborations? Who are they?

I’d love to work with SG Lewis or Alex Lustig.  SG Lewis has such a unique way of keeping you on your toes as a listener.  He has the best way of making each song he releases a totally new vibe.  He incorporates his own vocals too, usually to compliment the featured singer and or lead melodies in subtle ways.  Alex Lustig on the other hand just puts me in a trance with his smooth musical transitions and simplistic yet impactful songs.

What’s your motto or the advice you live by?

I want to pass the message that there is no “one way” to make music. Everyone asks what I would describe as my “sound” or what genre am I trying to be. Honestly, I like being a mix of all of them. To make magic and to keep growing/getting better you must take risks, have fun, and not be afraid to fail

Can we expect any upcoming projects soon? Please shed some light upon it.

I have a new single called “Going Home” coming out May 14th.  Just a couple more days!  It’s more of an instrumental piece that I wrote in dedication to the recent passing of my Grandfather & Aunt earlier this month.  The song was inspired by imagining the minutes felt before taking our last breath and “Going Home.”  This summer I’m going to focus on putting more quality into the songs I already have out though.  I’d really like to put energy into giving “Broken Love” and “Before you Go” music videos.

For our final question, is there anything else you would like to add?

Perfect Is boring.

KING TYGUSS turns faith into a battle cry on the commanding new single “Made For This Moment”

KING TYGUSS turns faith into a battle cry on the commanding new single "Made For This Moment"

KING TYGUSS approaches music as a calling, with artistry that carries the force of Gospel truth. He is the kind of Gospel hip-hop artist who treats every track as ministry, using rhythm, testimony, scripture, and raw emotion to reach hearts inside the church and beyond it. His work feels rooted in something lived rather than performed. That honesty, along with his spiritual conviction, gives his music a weight listeners can sense right away.

A devoted educator, army veteran, and proud servant of Christ, KING TYGUSS returns with one of his most commanding and spiritually charged releases so far, “Made For This Moment.” The single brings together hard-hitting modern drill production and an uplifting Gospel-centered message, shaping the track into a declaration of faith and a rallying call for believers walking in divine purpose.

At its heart, “Made For This Moment” celebrates spiritual awakening, identity, and victory through Christ. The song speaks to those who know they were created for a higher calling, soldiers for the Most High moving boldly through faith and purpose. With passionate lyricism and a firm, commanding delivery, KING TYGUSS reminds listeners that Christ gave His life for humanity, and through Him, believers can begin to understand why they were made and what they were destined to become.

Musically, the record carries as much range as its message. It is built on a dark, bass-heavy drill foundation that grabs attention immediately, driven by booming low-end percussion, sleek electronic drums, and eerie melodic textures. Even with that intensity, the instrumental leaves enough space for KING TYGUSS to move across the beat with sharp flows and magnetic conviction. From the opening moments, the hook locks into an anthemic energy that stays with you after the track ends.

As the song develops, “Made For This Moment” takes a surprising but natural sonic turn, shifting into a glossy, haunting early 2010s pop atmosphere that recalls the cinematic edge of Iggy Azalea’s “Black Widow.” Tense synth stabs, shadowy melodies, and polished electronic details blend smoothly with the aggressive drill framework, creating a dynamic listen that reflects the depth and urgency of the song’s spiritual message.

What makes “Made For This Moment” so impactful is KING TYGUSS’ ability to connect modern mainstream production with unwavering Gospel truth. He brings faith into contemporary sound without softening its message, creating music that feels spiritually grounded while still speaking clearly to today’s listeners.

The result is a soaring Gospel anthem for every soldier of Christ who has accepted the call to action. It is for those living boldly for Him, carrying His message each day, and knowing deep in their hearts that they were truly made for this moment.

With “Made For This Moment,” KING TYGUSS continues to show that Gospel hip-hop can be sonically inventive and spiritually transformative, offering music that inspires strength, conviction, and steady faith in a generation still searching for purpose.

Check this heartfelt tune below, add it to your favorite repertoire, and share it with other soldiers of Christ.

The Traveling High Priest delivers a transcendental anthem featuring the phenomenally gifted Jhonni Blaze

The Traveling High Priest delivers a transcendental anthem featuring the phenomenally gifted Jhonni Blaze

With a biography that reads like a mystery, I’d best describe The Traveling High Priest as a prophetic spiritual phenomenon wrapped in the form of an artist, minister, and messenger. His artistry does not operate within the ordinary boundaries of music alone; it feels like a fusion of prophecy, spoken-word ministry, gospel rap, spiritual storytelling, and supernatural theater. He presents himself less as a conventional entertainer and more as a vessel carrying divine revelation through sound, speech, prayer, and presence. Welcome aboard!

Now that we are here, it wouldn’t hurt to talk about that ethereal performance he recently delivered with the single “Right One” featuring female vocalist Jhonni Blaze. This is a spiritually charged and emotionally immersive collaboration and marks The Traveling High Priest’s first-ever gospel release and serves as the official lead single from his highly anticipated upcoming album. Already generating major momentum online — including nearly one thousand TikTok creations — “Right One” is quickly proving itself to be more than just a song; it is becoming a movement of healing, reflection, faith, and emotional honesty.

From the very first seconds, “Right One” creates an atmosphere that feels both intimate and transcendent. The intro arrives like a warm tropical breeze, carried by silky island-infused rhythms that sway with grace rather than force. The cadence is smooth, fluid, and deeply inviting. Gentle Afro-Caribbean percussion rolls beneath the production with hypnotic precision, allowing the beat to breathe naturally while soft melodic textures drift across the instrumental like sunlight reflecting on ocean waves. Every element feels intentional, warm, and emotionally alive.

The song immediately finds its emotional center through Jhonni Blaze’s unforgettable hook:
“You said you’d change. I believe every word. Gave you my heart even when it hurt. Stayed through the nights when love felt cold. Held on to you when I should have let go.”

Her delivery is soulful, vulnerable, and magnetic — setting the emotional tone for the entire record while bringing a powerful sense of human fragility and longing to the forefront. Then comes the arrival of The Traveling High Priest, whose entrance completely transforms the energy of the track. Delivering in his divinely inspired and unclassified spiritual language, he brings an otherworldly presence that feels less like conventional performance and more like prophetic expression poured directly into sound.

As he enters, the production effortlessly morphs into a floating, atmospheric Afro-Amapiano groove layered with minimalist yet deeply textured percussion. The beat does not rush. It lingers. It breathes. Dusty underground drums, airy melodic spacing, and smoky rhythmic textures create a hypnotic sonic environment where every word, cadence, and vocal inflection carries spiritual weight. Even without understanding the exact language, listeners can feel the emotional and spiritual gravity behind his delivery.

The chemistry between The Traveling High Priest and Jhonni Blaze becomes one of the song’s defining strengths. Her melodic vulnerability and his spiritually charged presence complement each other perfectly, creating a listening experience that feels healing, uplifting, and emotionally transporting. As the groovy Amapiano stabs settle into the mix and the fading harmonies dissolve into the instrumental atmosphere, “Right One” leaves listeners suspended in reflection, faith, and feeling.

The accompanying music video further elevates the experience. Visually stunning and cinematic in presentation, the video places both artists in a scenic studio-inspired environment filled with striking photography, immersive lighting, and captivating aesthetics. Rather than relying on excessive distractions, the visual allows the music, emotion, and chemistry between the artists to remain the focal point — making it the perfect companion piece to a record already resonating deeply with audiences worldwide.

For The Traveling High Priest Thee, “Right One” is not simply another release — it is testimony transformed into music. Speaking openly about his battles with PTSD, anxiety, and depression, he reveals that the song was born directly from GOD’s guidance and his own personal journey toward healing and purpose.

That sincerity pulses throughout every second of “Right One.” Beneath its lush production and hypnotic groove lies a deeper message about spiritual discernment, emotional boundaries, redemption, and divine direction. The Traveling High Priest Thee uses the song not only as art, but as ministry — encouraging listeners to stop walking into doors GOD never granted and to trust the path GOD has designed specifically for them.

“Right One” is available now on YouTube and continues to gain momentum across streaming and social platforms as listeners around the world connect with its message of healing, faith, surrender, and transformation.

Check it out, subscribe to his channel, stream, save and share this divine masterpiece.

Mr.Reaper turns My Escape into a shadowed search for freedom through fear inner conflict and spiritual clarity

Mr.Reaper turns My Escape into a shadowed search for freedom through fear inner conflict and spiritual clarity

In an era when plenty of hip hop chases whatever trend is loudest, Mr.Reaper arrives with something darker and more inward looking. “My Escape” is a haunting new single that moves between psychological pressure and spiritual reckoning, turning fear into the starting point for a deeper kind of release.

At 2 minutes and 37 seconds, the track wastes no time building its world. From the opening moments, the atmosphere feels cold, eerie, and cinematic, like a signal coming from somewhere far away. It pulls the listener into a shadowed mental space where reality feels unstable and escape is less certain than it first appears.

That tension comes through clearly in one of the song’s most memorable lines: “We’re in a simulation, I don’t think they understand…”

The line lingers because it feels philosophical without becoming abstract. It speaks directly to the song’s central struggle, the need to break out of unseen mental and emotional traps.

As the production expands, heavy hip hop drums take control. Booming 808s, rumbling bass, and sharp hi hats give the track a tense, cinematic weight. The beat feels alive, built with purpose, and it gives Mr.Reaper the space to step fully into his darker lyrical persona.

Once he enters that space, he owns it.

Mr.Reaper moves across the beat with control and conviction. His voice is deep, steady, and commanding, carrying each line with emotional force. When he delivers:

“I can’t see, I can’t breathe, I’m surrounded by this mystery praying to God…”

“From darkness to light, we must choose what is in the light…”

“Walking to my destiny…”

the words feel like pieces of an inner conversation. They capture the pull between despair and hope, confusion and clarity, pain and transformation.

At its core, “My Escape” is a song about liberation. Not from a place, but from the prisons people carry inside themselves. It explores fear, betrayal, pressure, self doubt, and the identities that can form around pain. The track plays like a psychological and spiritual battle, where the hardest enemy to face is often the one within.

Still, there is awakening inside the darkness.

The title “My Escape” does not feel like a retreat. It feels like recognition. Freedom, in this song, comes from facing what hurts, understanding it, and turning that struggle into strength. The message is rooted in resilience, growth, and self mastery.

The cover art sharpens that idea. Its half human, half skeletal portrait reflects the tension between life and death, identity and shadow, reality and illusion. The skull suggests mortality and inner demons, while the human side points toward consciousness and awareness. Like the song, the image is bold, unsettling, and symbolic enough to stay with you.

With “My Escape,” Mr.Reaper delivers a release that feels deliberate, emotionally charged, and thought provoking. In a crowded musical landscape, his voice cuts through because it sounds committed to something real.

The journey inward may be the darkest path, but Mr.Reaper presents it as the one that leads toward true freedom.
