Spokane, Washington native Ryan Mullane alias PIVE is the rap artist who I feel has seriously honed the art of emceeing…there is no one better suited to rival him on the mic other than himself. He has proved to be a masterful rhymester and a shapeshifter who gets in between beats and sounds and dances over them like a professionally trained kickboxer. His athleticism over beats is one to behold…he really is making some of your ‘favorite rappers’ look like a bad joke!
His series album, “I Will Forever Be,” introduced an explosion of voluminous talent that got the entire industry talking. PIVE had the music industry in the palm of his hands and went to win over fans and critics alike.
“The Upside Down” is another breathtaking performance that takes cues from the series “Stranger Things,” but PIVE fine-tunes this performance to fit his own agenda. The result of that is something genuinely magnificent that will have you going back for more.
Unleashing his killer instinct, PIVE does not miss with his efficient wordplay and attention-grabbing delivery. His voice is commanding, and he is poised and confident. The accompanying visual video is simple yet expressive and fits perfectly with this refined delivery.
He is tenacious, hard-hitting, and relentless…all his signature moves, making this masterpiece a must-have for innovative hip hop music.
There is even more reason to get excited as PIVE is gearing up for the release of the 3rd and final installment of “I Will Forever Be,” which promises to be the crown jewel of this certified album and to get us off on that mind-tripping journey is the single “Follow Our Souls,” which will be released on April 28th, 2023.
“I Will Forever Be Act 3” will be officially available in October 2023.
As we eagerly await another epic collection from someone at the top of their game, “The Upside Down” is a worthy addition to any playlist; please do the necessary and follow PIVE on Instagram to stay on top of his creative works!
