Mac Miller Fans Furious Over REASON Lyric

It looks like the TDE wagon is finally rolling again as REASON has just released his debut album with the label.

While New Beginnings has gotten early praise on social media, one song, and particularly one verse, is rubbing people the wrong way.

REASON has found himself in the middle of another controversy because of his new song “Fall”, which is critical of the music industry and how it treats artists. The TDE rapper speaks about women in rap and how, if you don’t want to “shake something” or “give it up” to a male manager, there’s not as big a chance that a label will bite on your brand. He also speaks about yes men and drug addiction in relation to the music business, rapping the following:

“Look, you said you wanna be an artist/Well, we gon’ turn you to an addict/Get rid of the n***as that you got on with/Then give you the tools to dig your own shit/Surround you with some wack n***as/Some yes men that’s gon’ tell you that your raps iller/A couple cars, some jewelry, make your stacks bigger/Then one day you could become the next Mac Miller.”

The lyric is not delivered with ill intent but, given the circumstances behind Mac’s death, his fans are calling the bar “tasteless” and noting that the song is great but that, without the Mac Miller mention, it would have been better. One person stated that, because he included the line about Mac, his original message is being lost in translation because now, people are preoccupied with defending the late rapper.

What do you think about the lyric? Do you think Mac’s fans have a reason to be upset?

NNORDY steps into jazz fusion with latest release “Wrong Turn”

NNORDY’s latest release, “Wrong Turn” is a fully live jazz fusion album that showcases the limitless possibilities of instrumental storytelling with the remarkable chemistry between guitar, keyboards, bass, and drums. The song has no words but is an excellent story told through musicianship and sets the stage for listeners to embark on a rich jazz experience.

“Wrong Turn” shows the strength of live performance from the get-go. Each instrument feels alive and in conversation with the others, a dynamic dialogue that develops organically over the course of the piece. Without vocal guidance, each musical phrase is left to speak for itself, giving the listener the freedom to interpret the track in their own way.

The guitar and keyboards often lead, crafting complex melodic lines and textures that give the music direction and atmosphere. Meanwhile, the bass and drums lay down a solid rhythmic base, creating movement and momentum while still leaving a lot of room for exploration. NNORDY creates a track that both dedicated jazz fans and listeners looking for something adventurous and fresh will enjoy. “Wrong Turn” shows that instrumental music can be as expressive and compelling as vocal music.
