Blac Kami and Sunchiyami deliver a smooth knockout with “NEVER LIED”
Blac Kami’s latest single, “NEVER LIED”, is a confident statement piece, a smooth-talking testament to authenticity wrapped in alternative hip-hop silk. Featuring the effortlessly complementary vibes of Sunchiyami, this leading track from his project “THE VELVET TAPE” manages to be sharp, a balance few artists pull off so naturally. There’s an undeniable clarity to the production, with a clean sound that relies on a tightly woven groove and an easy rhythm that pulls the listener in. The smooth flow carries a conversational intimacy, the kind that makes you feel like the verses are speaking directly to you rather than at you.
This is music for quiet reflection and moments when truth matters more than noise. “NEVER LIED” isn’t about overcomplicating the message. It’s about being real. Blac Kami and Sunchiyami exchange verses like friends swapping stories, their chemistry obvious in every line. There’s a certain calm confidence in how they deliver their words, as if they’ve got nothing to prove yet still manage to impress at every turn. “NEVER LIED” sets the tone for what listeners can expect from the full project. It’s a warm welcome into Blac Kami’s world where honesty and artistry walk hand in hand. While some hip-hop tracks aim to dominate with sheer force, this one glides in with style, making its mark through restraint, groove, and charisma.
The alternative hip-hop label feels right here, but it’s also clear that “NEVER LIED” isn’t boxed in by genre expectations. There’s a timeless feel in its simplicity, a reminder that music doesn’t have to shout to be heard. It’s the kind of track that invites multiple replays. With “NEVER LIED”, Blac Kami proves that telling the truth can be just as addictive as any hook or beat drop. It’s smooth, it’s catchy, and above all, it’s honest. And in a world that often rewards the loudest voices, this single stands tall by simply speaking straight.

iLLLACAT brings sharp bars and catchy production with latest release “Like Dat”
iLLLACAT drops “Like Dat,” a Hip-Hop cut with punchy production, percussion, and synths that give the record movement. Bookie comes on the track and sets the tone immediately with the hard lines, “Get out of my face with the gas, we’re on the chase for the cash, if you’re moving fake I’ll pass, I’ll pack it, and I’ll put it in a bag.” The delivery is right there in the money, the movement, and staying away from anything fake.
The production leaves plenty of space to land those words. Percussion powers the track with synths adding another layer to the beat, a backdrop for the straight-up vocal approach. “Like Dat” maintains tight energy and, instead of overcomplicating its message, lets the verses do the work in terms of personality.
The line, “Steady making money while smoking a pain killer” provides another memorable moment and an insight into the attitude that runs throughout the record. iLLLACAT brings us “Like Dat”, a pure hip-hop joint with Bookie on the track. A catchy production that stays sharp, an assertive voice, memorable lines, and enough rhythmic punch to keep the record moving.

ALPHA CENTAURI blends hip-hop, funk and afrobeat ambition on latest release “The Future Right Now”
ALPHA CENTAURI introduces his debut album, “The Future Right Now,” with a 10-track project recorded live off the floor with a stacked 8-piece band. The Vancouver, Canada-based hip-hop artist brings together funk, Afrobeat, jazz, and hip-hop across a record produced by Wes Smith and mixed by Justin Hicks. From the opening track, “We Rise,” catchy bass, synths, and drums establish an energetic foundation as Alpha delivers the words, “Okay 1,2,3, here we go, Alpha about to show them who he is,” followed by “Family the air in my wings as i take flight.”
“Get Your Money Up” shifts into cool drums, guitars, and horns, with Alpha’s rap flow remaining catchy as the song focuses on readiness, focus, and turning big dreams into reality. “Grow” follows with horns, catchy drums, and sub-bass, carrying the inviting line, “Baby let me get up in your mind, I think we can grow.” On “I’ll Fly,” light shaker, smooth guitars, toms, and kick create another distinct texture, while Alpha reflects on ambition and resilience with “Headed to the top and they wanna know why” and “what do they want from me, i gave it all, had to pick myself so they’ll never see me fall.”
The album continues through “Evermore,” “Higher Up,” “Never Be,” “Expect Us,” “Rugare,” and “Aria’s Lullaby.” “Higher Up” brings an R&B feel with chilly rap flows, while “Never Be” moves with faster rap delivery. “Rugare” opens with slap bass, muted guitar, and catchy drums, and “Aria’s Lullaby” takes a more personal direction, like a message to a daughter. It opens with “Who we are who we are, Hey there little Aria, got something for your soul,” set against strings holding the melody. Across its ten tracks, “The Future Right Now” presents ALPHA CENTAURI’s blend of live instrumentation, rap, and varied musical textures.
