Brooklyn-Based Singer-Songwriter Pherris Unveils New Single ‘Hit It’

‘Hit It’ is the first in a string of new releases for Pherris and is an honest take about a growing relationship with someone who is tied down with another and isn’t feeling desired in their current situation. With candid lyricism paired with r&b and playful production it’s a great representation of his eccentric presentation as an artist and a reminder for people to treat someone right or someone else will. The track glides along a catchy rhythmic pattern of 808’s and kicks with a memorable melody.

Lyrically the track was an outlet to express his situation, which listeners can relate to and bounce off. When talking about the single Pherris explains,

“Hit It” is a playful take on embracing the “side-piece” role. Pulling from an experience where I found myself in a “situationship” with a woman who had a long-time partner, and her relationship was lacking passion and intimacy. Her partner became too comfortable and started slacking in certain areas. I gladly filled the gaps. “Hit It” also serves as a warning shot to all people in relationships to not take your partner for granted and put in the work, or someone else will.”

‘Hit It’ is the follow up to Pherris’ debut single Y.T.M.F.G which has already caught the eyes of many, resulting in thousands of streams on Spotify Alone. With such an honest approach it’s hard to ignore the impact that his new single will create.

The Real Mack The Knife honors memory and spirit with soulful release “Rio Grande de Loíza”

The song “Rio Grande de Loíza” by The Real Mack The Knife is a powerful tribute to Puerto Rico’s history, memory, and sacred spirit. The track transforms nature into something spiritual, intimate, and timeless, inspired by the legendary river and Julia de Burgos’ immortal voice.

The song “Rio Grande de Loíza” has an old, alive vibe from the beginning. River water, moonlight, desire, and cultural memory shape a song that seems to rise from the ground. The Real Mack The Knife uses the river as a living, symbolic being, unlike the original work.

Julia de Burgos gives the piece incredible depth. She sees the river as a witness, a mother, a wound, a mirror, and a prayer throughout the song’s emotional landscape. The literary and spiritual connection gives the track a haunting beauty beyond music.
