Alicia Delmarie offers healing in harmony with soulful new single “Forgiveness”

H

With heat in her voice and mission in her soul, American/Jamaican artist Alicia Delmarie and Sizzla, has released her latest single, “Forgiveness,” a song that feels like a healing, comforting salve for tired hearts. Born out of some smooth R&B/Soul/Reggae fusion, Alicia always brings on the chill, and it’s no different here. “Forgiveness” is an emotional experience, a soft pulse that reassures us peace is in loving others but also learning to let go. With her trademark sound of lightness and soulfulness, Alicia writes her response in a song that’s at once timely and timeless. Alicia’s vocals skate freely over a laid-back, reggae-infused groove.

The production is warm and stripped-down, affording ample space for her voice rich, honeyed, and deeply emotive to shine. Every word she sings has an unmistakably sincere ring to it, as though “Forgiveness” were a private letter written to the world. What sets Alicia apart is her spiritual glow. Her music not only sounds good, it feels good. That’s because her art has a reason for being. “Forgiveness” is representative of her struggle to be a “shining light to a positive change around the world,” and she achieves it by making an often heavy subject a soulful celebration of healing. Listeners will end up rocking gently, not only to the rhythm but to the conviction in Alicia’s sentiments.

And at a time when grudges are all too often glorified, and division feels like the rule, a song like “Forgiveness” is a breath of fresh air, a melodic head-bump toward grace. Alicia Delmarie is not only an artist but a message of joy and peace. “Forgiveness” is indicative of the positive spirit she hopes to project through her music and a sign of her developing artistry and devotion to emotional transparency. If “Forgiveness” is any indication of what’s to come, Alicia Delmarie is creating ripples in the hearts of people worldwide.

822SweetCandy

SweetCandy! latest release of “ISOLATED DISPOSITION,” a single that doesn’t just talk but also confesses, opens up a very open space. The song was written right after a fight, and it has a lot of emotional baggage that most artists would be too scared to show. SweetCandy! doesn’t give up, it pushes all the way in.

“ISOLATED DISPOSITION” is how isolating it feels to be alone and not understood. But instead of blaming others, the story looks inward and reveals a deeper truth, being alone can often be a choice.

There isn’t any effort to make things better or hide the pain, SweetCandy! talks openly about how hard it is to want to be understood while also keeping things that would help people understand you. A lot of people who hear it will know right away that it doesn’t make sense.

“ISOLATED DISPOSITION” seems like a turning point in the end. It shows that people are ready to be more responsible, grow, and be honest with each other in the future. SweetCandy! makes it clear that being open about your feelings isn’t a sign of weakness, it’s the way to be truly seen in a world where it can feel dangerous to do so.

Knux Burgandy rejects being average on new release “Mediocre”

Honk Magazine Default

Knux Burgandy’s new single, “Mediocre,” sounds more like a personal statement than a song. The Boston producer-artist is all in on pain rap, and the song hits hard and with purpose. It’s based on raw feelings, sharpened by what you’ve been through.

“Mediocre” is a hard-hitting trap record, but what really sets it apart is its heart. Burgandy doesn’t just rap, he also talks about how he feels, thinks, and fights against settling for less. It’s easy to chant the hook, and it stays in your head after just one listen. The message, on the other hand, lasts a lot longer, no matter what happens, don’t settle for an average life.

Knux Burgandy is becoming well-known in a way that seems real and important. His community is increasingly supporting him, and he is clearly dedicated to his work. The word “mediocre” isn’t just a word, it’s a reminder that being average was never the goal.
