Gunplay and Ricco Barrino teamed up with North Carolina super producer J. Manifest
Gunplay and Ricco Barrino teamed up with North Carolina super-producer J. Manifest on the latest offering “Bucket List”. The 13-track album harkens back to the origins of hip-hop and mixes with the uniqueness of Gunplay and Ricco Barrino. The album welcomes you with “Bucket List”, a perfect sample platter for what is to come on the album, and was produced by J. Manifest. 
J. Manifest is a musical genius in the making. From a young age, he has been creating music and found some outstanding talent to work with such as Rick Ross on the Album “Mastermind”, Anthony Hamilton on the album “Love is the New Black” and also team up with Gunplay on his new album “ALL Bullshit Aside”, which he manages to produce “Bucket List” Featuring “Ricco Barrino”. He has already made a huge difference in Gunplay’s Album and we are excited for them to keep collaborating as a team for future projects. Speaking of the Internet, he went viral on the Album “Mastermind” by Rick Ross. “Drug Dealers Dream” is one of the fan-favorite tracks on the project “Mastermind” which was produced by J. Manifest himself. The song has over 12 Million Streams combined. Don’t let the viral sensation fool you, as a producer/ engineer he takes his craft seriously, and his true talent shows on projects like “Bucket List” & Anthony Hamilton’s album “Pillows and Safe.”
It’s no secret that a super-producer can make or break a project and J. Manifest has a long list of credentials with highly notarized musicians. In the past, J. Manifest has worked with Wiz Khalifa, Beanie Sigel, Project Pat, Money Bagg Yo, and Yung L.A. His previous work with acts Elhae (“Stars”), Curren$y, T-Pain, Young Dolph, Colonel Loud, and MMG artist Scrilla’s “Gods Will” EP are also some of his best. To conclude, J.Manifest is more than a super producer. He is a teacher, a mentor, and a coach, and leaves everyone he meets with the desire to manifest their dreams.

Leyla Romanova finds strength in silence on new release “Self-Control”
Leyla Romanova‘s new single, “Self-Control,” is a powerful emotional release that feels more like a manifesto for surviving modern chaos than a song. In a world of opinions, urgency, and emotional exhaustion, Romanova offers a track based on one radical idea: not reacting.
“Self-Control” immediately creates tension and clarity. The drums keep everything together with discipline and purpose. As the textured instrumentals expand like waves of thought through a crowded mind, the bass anchors the listener emotionally.
The contrast between outside noise and inside stillness makes the song compelling. Romanova’s work captures the feeling of being overwhelmed by pressure, opinions, and distractions while silently retaining personal peace. There are no major uprisings. But restraint is power. The song knows energy conservation is a survival strategy.

J’mall expresses the pain of chasing someone else’s success over your own on “Unattainable”
J’mall’s latest single, “Unattainable,” expresses the pain of chasing someone else’s success over your own. The song explores the emotional void caused by constant comparison rather than motivation.
“Unattainable” is about realizing that no matter how hard one works to meet others’ expectations, the reward will never be satisfying. J’mall explores the stress of “keeping up with the Joneses” and the exhaustion of comparing yourself to standards that weren’t meant for you.
The song’s honesty resonates, the message doesn’t feel preachy or polished. It feels personal, like J’mall is sharing life lessons. The record’s quiet strength is its embrace of individuality and personal responsibility without pretending it’s easy.
