Newark-native AllStarrDaGreat (aka ADG) has always been obsessed with cars, specifically high-performance vehicles, that shine in his fast and furious new visuals for hellcat anthem “SRT.”

“Like many kids growing up in hoods all across the country, if you weren’t in school you were hustling or trapping,” says ADG.

“When you became successful at whatever grind you chose, you’d cop the SRT. It was like a status symbol that you ‘made it’. So I wanted to bring that story to life with this song and video.”

The east coast lyricist blends 90’s bars with cadences that represent the new era of the culture. As a result, he’s being hailed as the predecessor to the Rap kingdom Jay Z and Notorious B.I.G built.

In high school, ADG traveled around the globe hooping as well as writing poetic lyrics and recording. He gained invaluable experiences that would eventually contribute to his autobiographical flow, which has connected deeply with his solid fanbase.

Raised in a music-heavy household that gave equal airtime to rap and classic R&B, ADG developed a keen ear for prolific rhymes and soulful rhythms. His artistic influences, Jay Z and Prince, reflect that philosophy.

At the dawn of his career, ADG signed an artist deal with Big Block of Block ENT and Bad Boy South and relocated to Atlanta. That alignment proved to be short-lived.

However, the young spitter didn’t return home empty handed or headed. ADG had amassed a diverse catalog of material and also learned the business side of the industry.

With a renewed sense of purpose and passion, ADG made a triumphant return to the game with his single “Randy Foye” featuring notable emcee Benny The Butcher.

In typical ADG style, he creatively pays homage to the NBA great while simultaneously incorporating his love for the sport and mapping a legacy for the city of Newark.

ADG is signed to a partnership agreement with Jason Geter’s Heavy Sound Lab imprint.

Geter is the co-founder of Grand Hustle Records where he signed and managed the career of rapper/entertainer T.I., in addition to inking deals with Iggy Azalea and Travis Scott, whom he also discovered.

Seun Kuti & Egypt 80 makes a stand for afrobeat against corruption on latest release Na Dem feat. Tom Morello.

Seun Kuti & Egypt 80 deliver a powerful afrobeat statement with “Na Dem,” Featuring Tom Morello and produced by Femi Koleoso. The track has been a fan favourite even before its official release, and comes with the unmistakable spirit of protest, truth-telling, and social accountability that have long characterized Afrobeat’s most impactful moments.

The song’s heart is a direct challenge to corruption and the abuse of power. Instead of singling out one profession or institution for its critique, “Na Dem” identifies a larger culture of dishonesty, targeting bad lawyers, bad doctors, bad politicians, and anyone who would sell their integrity for personal gain. The message is sharp and uncompromising and delivered with the urgency that has become a hallmark of Seun Kuti’s artistry.

The inclusion of Tom Morello adds another level of intensity to the record. His presence adds to the song’s rebellious energy, creating a powerful intersection between the rhythmic activism of Afrobeat and the confrontational edge of rock. The result of the collaboration is a track that is both timeless and of the moment.

The song’s dedication to principle is what rings true. The moral center of the record is Seun’s statement that he would never prostitute his conscience for money. It turns “Na Dem” from a critique into a declaration of personal values, responsibility, and resistance.

Marsha Bartenetti reinvents in her own style “New York Minute”

Marsha Bartenetti’s latest release, “New York Minute,” written by Don Henley, Danny Kortchmar, and Jai Winding, offers emotional depth, turning a timeless look at life’s fragility into a reflective, cinematic journey. Stephan Oberhoff’s arrangement perfectly frames Bartenetti’s voice, and Kevin Bate’s expressive cello adds a warm resonance that makes the track feel like a movie.

The way each instrument sounds makes it feel planned, which lets the listener stay in the fleeting moments the song so beautifully describes. Bartenetti’s singing is the best part of the song. She shows an openness that feels real, as if she has lost something and still fully embraces love and presence with complete honesty. Her choice of words and small changes in tone make the lyrics feel even closer.

“New York Minute,” is a new version that pays tribute to the original while showcasing Bartenetti’s own style. The movie-like instruments and heartfelt vocals make the song feel both personal and universal. It makes us think about how hard it is to let go and hold on.
