Read More by Jhantu Randall In the night it feels like a different world comes to life Transition from the grit of the daily grind to an uneasy, yet more carefree time At night, when a rainy drive reveals the beauty behind the city sights Encompassed in bright and brash neon lights Sit back and fall into your vices The days headaches are silenced Swimming in a sea of drink exhaling the pain away A smokey view adjusting the tune Holding onto these good vibes, hoping they stay During the night, there seems to be a different sound A new scent blankets the air as earlier cares can no longer be found If the sun gives off energy than the moon creates an alternate view of this town A place where opportunity is both gifted and repented Stuck in a rush unaware of its limits Secrets shrouded in mystery hidden in plain sight waiting to be unfurled A road illuminated by lights to appear glittered with gold Holds a deceptive beauty as part of its alluring traps Lost in your drink, you exhale to fee...

First single ever to be recorded and released....good song for everyone to listen to. I won Duval’s XXL contest with power 106.1 with this song. Reaches all people.

An upbeat organic folk song with the intent of being a musical antidepressant. The lyrics follow the story of a personified Sun, backed by the tight groove of interwoven acoustic guitar and mandolin.

Read More by Jhantu Randall As I write these verses in my notebook staring a a starry sky The pen is the instrument that helps find the reasons to why My truest thoughts exist in these pages I write Ironically, in person the same line of questioning will be met by a harsh stare accompanied by a dismissive eye So this is why I write To come to terms and make amends for all the wrongs I’ve willingly done in my life To be a true poet you must possess the gift of reaching the audiences minds To view the world through the innocence of a child while living multiple lives It’s the fault of human behavior The environment and nature That’s what I strive to capture every single time To be comfortable in both taking a leap and walking the line Where the only 2 choices are to jump or fall to your demise So who am I? I am both nothing and everything I live in-between the margins and divide Just one voice added to a chorus of a vibrant kind Relegated to the underground From hole in the wall spots to...

"What we are" is the human chant written by forcefedfood. it is a song made for every person on this planet, gets into detail. the struggles and problems that each of us on earth deal with in our own head. from bravery to sarcasm. dreamer to a person with no hope. this is the core of what we are. Human.

This is just a song about life in general. It features a wide array of subject matter from the lighthearted to the more dark and graphic. depending on how hard you twist your mind it can be viewed as a modern day prom song or an ethereal futuristic song about the unknown.

Its a song about a reader talking to herself about the end of the world and how people choose to ignore the problem. It was written in Venice Beach, CA so it has this surfer beat that brings the song to life!

Visit Jacoby Hinton's Website Award winning Artist/Educator, Jacoby Hinton, graduated from College of Charleston with a Bachelor’s of Arts in Studio Art. Growing up Jacoby discovered his romantic fascination with the diverse strengths and capabilities of the human body at an early age. Trained as a swimmer, a martial artist, and a soldier, Hinton has first-hand experience with the grueling training one endures while striving to exceed their limits, as well as the glory of soaring past that which had once been thought impossible. Hinton’s crucible of experience has forged an immense amount of discipline that is as present in the dozens of draft sketches that precede a single drop of paint, as they are in each surgical swipe of his palette knife. Each piece is a homage to those who devote themselves to a craft. His use of bold colors and textured palette knife strokes create a sense of expressiveness and movement in each piece.

Read More by Jhantu Randall In a new era where money runs everything Back in the 1960’s, boxing had a aura of purity Emerging from the depths of Louisville, Kentucky Cassius Clay chose to emerge as Muhammad Ali Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee Rumble young man, Rumble Faced enormous odds as he fought in the heart of the concrete jungle Without fear, he spoke his mind Separating from the norm while being a man of the people Refusing enlistment into Vietnam, he stood toe to toe with the powerful and deceitful Took everything from him they could Slandered his name as they snatched his livelihood On his road to redemption, the dust settled and the path was clear He stood tall, internationally hands raised in victory, there in Zaire

Leroy Morvant on Etsy My goal is to continually experiment, explore color possibilities, and to play with composition and line. When I first began painting (10 yrs. old) I explored styles and techniques in order to achieve a specific result in mind. I became burned out at 21y.o. and stopped painting for 4 years.  When I returned to the canvas I was determined to challenge my preconceived ideas and teachings. Therefore I began to draw with my eyes closed while meditating (to clear my mind) and this particular style and figures were born from this experiment.  I no longer draw with my eyes closed. My approach is primarily about experimenting with color and composition and the subject matter is second.

“In Dreams” is sure to pull on heartstrings regardless of age, gender, or culture. The record describes reminiscent memories a young boy has of his late father. Surron narrates the tale of his younger self retracing steps and lessons he shared with his father, gone too soon.  The melodies from Two Feathers intertwined with Surron’s storytelling offers listeners a heightened sense of emotion. “In Dreams” is where loved ones who passed will remain. The captivating emcees provide an uncanny sound and vibe reflective of traditional Hip-Hip with a melodic spin. Stream “In Dreams” here , and watch the video below.

Song from the #IGOTTHEHOOKUP2 Soundtrack. | www.igotthehookup2.com

Lion is about always Hustlin and working hard. Staying on the path. Keeping peace, and encouraging it to the world. I wrote it to reflect how I approach my music and my career. 

This song was written as a tribute to all the girls who break your heart and how you can live totally fine without them, never doubt the power of independence.
