emoty Makes “History” With Bold New Hip-Pop Single

Denver-based hip-pop artist emoty (aka Tyler Dozier) released his second ever single “History” on June 25. Produced by Madilla (aka Cameron Sargent), the song is a self-reflection and observation of society as a whole – about bragging habits to impress other people, commonly dating partners. Upon first listen, the track seems like an encouragement to do whatever it takes to impress a crush, but it actually puts a mirror up to daters to question why it’s so normal to act this way. emoty has zero hesitation to begin his music career with a striking message.

For emoty, relationships are based on interests, passions, and the quirks that make people unique. He understands the need to prioritize someone’s true self over the money or things they have. Unfortunately, that belief isn’t alway reciprocated. “I hate the concept of flexing because I hate materialism,” says emoty. “I’m the type of person that will wear the same pair of shoes until I’m unable to wear them.” The Denver artist takes on a fresh sense of confidence in the single to portray the chase that goes along with pursuing love. Balancing the urges to confess his feelings and keep his guard up, emoty relates to listeners who have ever felt the need to put their best self forward on a date.

“History” is a perfect summertime jam – mixing the smooth, catchy musical elements of hip-hop and the melodic earworms from pop. Listeners can enjoy the song to simply let loose, or they can dive into the lyrical depths to digest the message behind them. In “History,” emoty touches on the urge to pursue the person he likes, but is unsure if they truly like him back. “I try to stay humble and self aware – I never want to break boundaries,” says emoty. The single was written alongside guitarist and songwriter Justin Scott Lucas who also wrote on Khalid’s Free Spirit album. “History” is a strong start for what fans can expect from Tyler emoty in 2021 and beyond, and it will be available for streaming everywhere June 25.

Monkey Meadows shifts gears through motion and memory on latest release “Red Car”

Monkey Meadows

Monkey Meadows captures the quiet, thoughtful tension that comes with change on new single “Red Car.” The steady beat and warm bass line make it impossible to stop. It flows naturally, leaving room for the long, winding vocal parts that give the piece its base. Monkey Meadows creates a deep sense of closeness by combining sound elements that feel like a conversation in the soft twilight light.

The music makes you feel things that are hard to put into words but very powerful. “Red Car” is great at showing motion without a clear goal. It is a piece that celebrates the beauty of seeing what we can’t see, moments, relationships, and feelings that come and go, while everything else around us changes.

The indie pop structure might make people sway to the beat, and the song’s subtle sadness about distance and change might be felt throughout. This release proves that Monkey Meadows can make music that is both big and personal by looking inside themselves. “Red Car” is more than just a song, it’s a powerful reflection and a soundtrack for when life goes on, but we stay the same inside.

John O’Brien sparks a heartfelt journey from routine to romance on latest release “Sophie Came to Town”

John O'brien

John O’Brien, also known as J.O.B.E., is a veteran singer-songwriter and producer who has released his latest song titled “Sophie Came to Town,” a story-driven work of art that captures the quiet pain of unfulfilled routines and the sudden appearance of life-changing love.

O’Brien has been in the music business for over forty years, and he knows how to combine story and melody well. This song is a great example of that. He shows us a man stuck in the boredom of life and relationships, heartbroken but never fully embracing intimacy. Sophie’s arrival changes everything. She is full of life, confident, and exciting, shaking up his familiar world and pushing him to be honest about his feelings.

O’Brien’s songs show her as both a muse and a mirror, showing that love can only grow when people are open, generous, and attentive. The song expertly contrasts the thrill of new closeness with the sad truth of a fleeting connection. Sophie left, but her absence has a lasting effect, it has given her clarity, courage, and the ability to love deeply. The story’s arc is both delicate and strong, making the listener feel deeply awake and lost.

“Sophie Came to Town” is a great example of O’Brien’s ability to tell a story through music and emotion. Every note has meaning, every pause makes you think, and the story’s progress shows how love can be unpredictable and sometimes short-lived. This single really speaks to people who have been in a life-changing relationship, showing that even short-lived connections can leave a lasting warmth. John O’Brien’s latest work goes beyond music, it is a moving and thought-provoking look at love, bravery, and the unexpected events that change who we are.
