MIConnected
JOSHUi

I relish new hip hop. It keeps me ticking. Luckily, I received the latest track from ‘JOSHUi’, and I have been itching to put my words to pen since it landed in my inbox. A record which fulfils any hip hop enthusiastic wishes. It comes full of surprises. Let’s kick off with the prelude. It starts with a siren effect reminiscent of a police chase before then transitioning into a synth-based melody. Not short of any charisma, the rapper then delivers a substantial rap performance. After the intro, we then…

IAMHaile

IAMHaile is no stranger to dropping a solid hip hop track. He is building quite a reputation for doing just that. It was only a few months ago when I first found the rapper who lives in North Carolina. It was actually through checking out artists on Instagram where I first came across him, and it turns out he is quite a big deal. Especially within the religious hip hop community. But, I do not think his music is stereotypically religious. It does have elements and phrases which reflect the…

B.U.d

LA-based musician B.U.d has just released his new track ‘No More’. It is a release which puts the singer’s octave range on full display with a pleasant vocal from the get-go. It gets started with an old school R’n’B beat, and it took me back to yesteryear with an immense sense of nostalgia. Yes, the industry sound has changed, but why change something which worked very well? I think B.U.d has taken influences from the past here but created something unique and memorable in its own right. ‘No More’ is…
