For as long as she can remember, 23 year-old singer-songwriter Amindi K. Frost—better known as just Amindi—has always loved telling stories. “I've been writing songs since I was maybe four or five years old,” she shares. “I always say that my songs are manifestations and stories.” – afropunk.com
Big Pressure (Remix)
Swerve Strickland has been on my wrestling radar since he first appeared on NXT. Unfortunately, they didn't know what to do with him so his career had a lot of starts and stops. Eventually, WWE let him go and he showed up in AEW, where (even though it took a little time) he got his chance to shine. He was slowly making waves until he started using the remix to a rap song he previously recorded called "Big Pressure". Add his manager Prince Nana's iconic dance during the entrance, and all eyes fell on Swerve. He's making the most of…
Time 2 Let Go (Rough mix)
Doja Cat performs a cover of Red Room by Hiatus Kaiyote in the Live Lounge, as part of a very special recording for Radio 1 in Los Angeles.
Went Diamond
An MC and producer from New York City's tradition-rich Long Island, Roc Marciano is well-respected for his moody, claustrophobic beats and stream-of-consciousness, heavily stylized lyrics. Briefly affiliated with Flipmode Squad early in his career, he formed the short-lived crew the U.N. during the early 2000s before going solo, earning massive acclaim for his self-produced 2010 full-length Marcberg.
Collaborating with rappers and producers like Q-Tip, Ka, and Action Bronson, subsequent releases such as 2013's Marci Beaucoup and 2018's RR2: The Bitter Dose featured more experimental production as well as sharper lyricism. Numerous collaborations appeared during the early 2020s, including 2022's The Elephant…
Glass Shatters
The Main Event between The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin at WrestleMania X-Seven is one of my favorite matches. And watching the unthinkable... Steve Austin turning heel to join forces with Vince McMahon was a crazy moment. But the icing on the cake came the following night on Monday Night War when Stone Cold came out to his new heel, "Glass Shatters" by Disturbed. IT was still Austin's theme, but more ominous and vicious. It summed up his new persona. I agree with a lot of people that turning Austin heel was a horrible decision and (even with a…
Cast Your Spell (WIP)
Getting back to that music work. I have a few songs under by belt. The goal is to do a nice 12 song project to release toward the end of summer. So far, so good.
Lejos di Ti
The Marías are the psychedelic-soul lovechild of Puerto Rican-bred, Atlanta-raised María Zardoya and Los Angeles native Josh Conway. The two are joined by their closest friends, Jesse Perlman on guitar and Edward James on keys. Their undeniably intuitive musical chemistry can be heard in the band's smooth rendezvous of jazz percussion, hypnotic guitar riffs, smoke-velvet vocals and nostalgic horn solos. There's something undeniably sensual in their dreamlike fusion of jazz, psychedelia, funk and lounge.
Sky's The Limit (Remix)
Been following Sasha (now Mercedes Moné) since she started in NXT. You could always see the potential in her, and it wasn't until she turned heel that we got to see the "Boss" persona emerge that took her to the top of the WWE's Women's Division. As of now, she's signed with AEW and hasn't really done anything. AEW has a track record of ruining debuts, so I'm hoping that once she starts hitting the mat, everyone will remember how good she is. And even though her new persona is "The CEO", I don't think anything will beat her at…
Green Eyes Freestyle
Neo-soul, hip-hop fusionist, Samara Cyn, is an emerging artist in Los Angeles, California with a sound that stands out from the crowd. With new, modern soul and nostalgic hip-hop undertones, her southern twang cuts through the record with hints of west-coast influence and lingo. Cyn’s singing and rap combo is a breath of fresh air in a modern era that calls back to the Erykah’s and Lauryn’s. In her bio, she “makes music for ya auntie.” Her concepts are rooted in internal conflicts with self, society, and peace. While her message and raspy voice are different from the current trends,…

What can you say about The Rock's run in WWE that hasn't been already said? But my favorite era was 2003 after his heel turn defeated Hulk Hogan at 'No Way Out'. Everyone tuned in to witness the aftermath and we were treated to a whole new persona for The Rock, complete with a remixed entrance song and a 'Hollywood' style Titantron.
