Some artists’ lives are just simple; they get into the studio and make hits and go on with their lives….one such rapidly rising star is the African queen Nomina, who has been spreading the African culture all over the globe, going on to give it that international appeal by distilling it impeccably through a blend of fascinating ideas to come up with one piece of magnificence that has earned her an-up-and-coming notice among global audiences as well as key industry players. Having been born in Zimbabwe, raised in Botswana, and later migrating to Germany to study, her music mirrors a little bit of every culture and lifestyle!

With her intense love and respect for every culture, the unique diversity of different languages, and her true passion for music backed by her undeniably visionary gifts, Nomina has combined her many interests and influences from far and wide to cement a moment in time that is more than guaranteed to connect everyone together.

Nomina is now celebrating achieving another milestone in her ever-expanding career. Picture this, you grow up listening to one of your favorite artists, who really inspires you a lot, and the next thing you know, you are in the studio recording a song together…words may fail us when we need them not to, but it’s something beyond magical, it’s simply indescribably surreal!

That’s what happened with Nomina’s latest single, “Closer to You” which is a collaboration between her and the American-Jamaican legend, Sean Kingston himself…it really doesn’t get much better than this!

“Closer to You” as you’d expect, is a potential billboard charting masterpiece that sees two special and uniquely talented artists have at it, and the result is magical. A true ballad by any measure, this banger has a sizeable bit of everything to make it a bona fide standout.

It’s no less than you’d expect from an artist who always likes her African culture and that cheerful spirit to come out in her songs, and of course, from a legend in the game whose music lit up the dance floors from way back in the 90s and early 00s. The beats are danceable and have a telling dance-pop percussion that will inspire you to move your body recklessly!

As is his tradition, everything Sean Kingston touches automatically turns to gold, and this was no different. This is a memorable performance that really gives it an international appeal. And the duo really exudes such admirable chemistry together. The performances fit in naturally and in perfect sync to make this an unforgettable song.

The irresistible hooks, without even mentioning Nomina’s glossy and effortlessly powerful voice, are this special banger in a nutshell. I love the diversity and that seamless blend of a little bit of everything from R&B, pop, and dancehall to afrobeat to design a masterpiece with broad appeal.

“Closer to You” is purely futuristic—the cover art, the flows, cadences, samples, and sound are all so forthcoming and foretelling. This track has the potential to top charts; the replay value is great, and the production really meets international standards, as you’d expect!

As she celebrates such an impressive feat, Nomina feels at the top of her creative career and is swiftly making her mark as one of the hottest eclectic female artists in the game…let it all sink in, and may I suggest that, from now on, you start mentioning Nomina’s name with a little more respect!

Indonesia Based Producer Redrapbeat’s “Plastic Sweet Heart” Is Addicting and Heartwarming with a Retro Aesthesis- You Just Need to Tune In and Savor!

Redrapbeat, a virtuosic music producer and digital artist, prides himself on his versatility and storytelling panache. His strongest artistic attribute lies in the fact that he can transform just about any story into melodies with universal appeal. And when it comes to his creative expression, he does not believe in self-limitation, which is why you cannot box him in any one genre. He navigates the ever-evolving realms of hip-hop, electronic, lo-fi, and orchestral symphonies, among others. He is living proof that music can indeed be enjoyed in multiple forms and still invoke emotions in listeners. He is dedicated to exploring the intersection of different genres and pushing the boundaries of his own creativity to create unique music with instant appeal!

The track “Plastic Sweet Heart” is so many things. I want to hail the mixing here; it is top-level, and the artwork is also first-class. The end result is a song of the finest quality.

Many listeners report that this track evokes nostalgia for the 80s, reminiscent of the era’s distinctive sound… others going to a certain place in Tokyo, Japan, reveling under the colorful and flashing disco lights that move in time with the music as they dance with reckless abandon.

This is the kind of jam that makes you feel young again as it hits you right in the heart. And those synths, my god! They spread pleasant melodies all around. Everything stands out: the music, the energy, and the vibe exuded here.

It’s actually too bad that this jam isn’t long enough—before you know it, it is over and leaves you wanting more. That’s just how good it is, and to imagine that I randomly stumbled upon it makes me love it tenfold.

A longer version of this track with captivating female vocals could further enhance its appeal. I’d really float like a butterfly and sting like a bee!

Available on all popular platforms, give this banger a listen; you’re likely to enjoy every second of it!

Uk-Based Award-Winning Artist Marc Woosnam’s Debut Project, “Some Remedy” Is an Ultimately Triumphant Album That Makes Its Mark Time and Time Again.

With this 12-track album, Marc Woosnam offers quite the remedy with a scintillating blend of grunge, blues, rock, and folk. Wielding brash, soulful, smooth, and passionate sounds that hit hard and instantly captivate a listener, this album bridges the gap between stark human moments and wild, untamable energy, offering a unique perspective that only Woosnam can deliver. As a product of a 15-year creative process, it is little surprise that it has already secured its place in the Amazon Album Rock Charts.

You know, at the end of the day, it’s not just about making an album; it’s about capturing the essence of his music, the stories he wanted to tell, the emotions he wanted to convey, and the connection he wanted to make with his listeners. This album is a reflection of his musical soul, and he hopes it resonates with your hearts.

I listened to this magnificent body of work, which sees Marc pour his heart and soul into each and every track, and I’ve sampled a few tracks here to scratch your musical itch because you really need to experience this extensive work of art.

He hits the ground running and never once pauses for breath. Armed with all the trademark sounds of classic, bluesy, and grunge rock music, this Berkshire-based wizard wastes no time in making his mark, delivering a stellar opening cut in “All Fall Down”, a fiery track that emerges from thunderous percussive beats and rollicking electric riffs thanks to the help of both Marcus and Rob. As the track builds, the boys unleash a timeless medley of rhythm guitar, upright bass, and some self-assured vocals, laying a steady foundation with a strong automotive anthem!

“Sacrament” arrives in a gentle, blues-infused blend, conjuring up gorgeous shades of the original rock scene. It feels like the beating heart of yesteryear, revitalized for the modern age, making it a joy to hear. The theme is melancholic and delivered with the heart-wrenching tones of someone grappling with heartbreak and disappointment. The tune also brims with virtuosic guitar picking and awe-inspiring musicianship.

“Prosperity” is a proper rocker; it is a bold, textured sound that takes the lead from a broad selection of styles, showcasing Woosnam’s more nuanced, expressive side to his caustic rock sound.

“Met Your Match” features vividly expressive lyrics. It is a track that does not tiptoe around its weighty subject matter. This is a genuine standout that gives the listener something to think about long after the last note has faded because Marc offers variety with instrumentation and garage rock sensibilities.

Crashing riffs and pounding drums in “Sin” break down into a dark spiral of hard rock anthemics echoing visceral 90’s sounds and grunge aesthetics that conjure up comparisons to legendary bands like Nirvana and Guns N’ Roses.

“Till I Stop Missing You” features a gentle yet powerful production that wraps around the lyrics like a warm embrace. The tuneful guitar chops provide a captivating backdrop to delightfully complement the scene-stealing vocal performance. This tune is emotional, and Marc touches on a soul-stirring sentimental subject regarding the difficulties of letting go.

“Into Everything, Nothing” is another soulful jam with heartfelt lyrics and squeaky clean singing as Woosnam touches on a delicate theme, leaving a lasting impression with how he readily conveys vulnerability.

“Some Remedy” is not just music but relatable stories told through Marc’s own lenses, and it deserves to be heard more.

Follow the link below, stream it in its entirety, and let us know what you think about Woosnam’s artistry and originality.
