VIBE WORLD ORDER Unveil Sensational New Single “LIFT”
Hip-hop collective VIBE WORLD ORDER have shared their must-hear new single, “LIFT”, alongside accompanying visuals directed by Chris Andrade. Based in Union, New Jersey, the fast-rising collective are currently riding a huge wave of momentum following the release of debut album STILL BROKE – from which “LIFT” is taken.
With their audience continuing to grow with each release since arriving on the scene back in 2018 and landing a spot on the star-studded line-up of the prestigious AFROPUNK Brooklyn festival in 2019, “LIFT” looks set to help the collective round out 2021 in impressive style. The release also comes during an exciting period for them – their song “TERIYAKI” currently features in Amazon Prime Video’s new hit show Fairfax.
“LIFT” showcases the depth of talent and versatility within the collective, highlighting their sharp lyricism and fast and furious rap flows, with each member taking it in turn to deliver their verse with conviction and authority over a gritty, hard-hitting beat produced by group members Reg Mason and JTT. The accompanying video elevates the track even further. It sees the rap collective pursuing an Ocean’s Eleven-style heist to save one of their members who has been taken by some yet-to-be-revealed people – the story will continue in their next video.
Speaking more on the new release, VIBE WORLD ORDER say, “LIFT is a half boastful, half working-class anthem. We think it highlights what we’re able to do despite their being a lack of resources for us where we come from. It’s equal part manifesting what we want and displaying what we have at the moment. It’s a snapshot of what we were all thinking about at the time.”
Writing and producing their own music and firing on all cylinders from production to lyrics and visuals, the collective are quickly becoming a force to be reckoned with. And now with another impressive release under their belt, in addition to the growing acclaim they’re receiving online, it’s clear VIBE WORLD ORDER are an act to watch out for with an exciting future ahead. Their new single, “Lift”, is out now.

Alias Wayne celebrates the beauty of genuine affection on latest release “Tribute”
Alias Wayne brings the romantic message to the fore with “Tribute,” a song written to celebrate someone whose qualities deserve recognition and appreciation. The whole release is really about love and wanting the world to know how special someone is to you. It’s a simple yet significant idea, especially since the song takes an appreciation-based approach to romance rather than focusing on the thrill of attraction.
As the track progresses, the addition of shakers and hand drum adds yet another layer of rhythmic character, giving the arrangement a lively quality. What I really like is how these elements help the song move forward without detracting from its romantic message.
The lyric direction also keeps affection at the center, expressing admiration for someone’s qualities and a desire to get closer through a personal invitation to share a dance. It gives the song a warm, accessible feel. “Tribute” is a release that celebrates someone special. Alias Wayne blends a message of love with guitar, percussion, and rhythmic movement. It’s a nice treat for fans of romantic songs with a personal touch.

Séhkou unveils a beautiful connection between faith and intimacy on latest release “Song of Songs 1:3-4 (I Know)”
Romance meets spiritual expression in Séhkou’s new single, “Song of Songs 1:3-4 (I Know),” featuring Angélica Allen. The release provides a fresh take on attraction and intimacy. The song blends hip-hop with soul and R&B influences, celebrating a bond between two people who genuinely choose and cherish each other. Rather than the indecision of chasing after someone who keeps their distance, it’s about mutual affection, desire, and the reassurance of being wanted back.
I particularly appreciate the solemn flute that flows throughout the track. This gives the arrangement an interesting musical character and strengthens the connection between the romantic and spiritual themes. The rap rhythm is also noteworthy, bringing a different feel to the track, while keeping the lyrical focus front and center.
Allen’s spoken-scripture intro and outro provide an important framework for the record, connecting its expressions of intimacy to a sense of reverence. Song of Songs 1:3-4 (I Know) has something meaningful to offer listeners who appreciate music that goes beyond surface attraction to explore love. Séhkou blends hip-hop, soul, R&B, and spiritual expression thoughtfully.
