CHARMAINE Team Up With Kali on New track “SIZZLE”

Following on from the recent release of rising hip-hop superstar Charmaine’s debut EP, the Canadian-Zimbabwean artist is upping the ante with three new additions to create her Hood Avant Garde Deluxe EP.

This includes sensual Latin-dance inspired track ‘A MI MANERA’ featuring Warner Music Latin artist VALENTINO and ‘SIZZLE’ featuring Atlanta rapper KALI, plus remix of ‘DON’T CARE’ now titled ‘WE DON’T CARE’ featuring Toronto rapper HAVIAH MIGHTY.

Her debut tape was packed with multidimensional, playful and boasty must-rewind songs. In true Charmaine fashion, she’s rounded up a stellar trio of artists to up the ante on her electrifying debut EP with three new offerings that are sure to be a part of your summer playlist.

Haviah Mighty impresses on ‘WE DON’T CARE’ that showcases her and Charmaine’s unapologetic confidence and musical style that uplifts listeners. Latin sensation Valentino blends perfectly with Charmaine’s luscious vocals, showcasing her versatility and singing abilities on ‘A MI MANERA’. Finally, ‘SIZZLE’ featuring Kali is a confidence-boosting track that makes female listeners feel BOLD while embracing their sexuality.

“I am beyond excited,” Charmaine says of her deluxe offering. “Haviah Mighty, Valentino and Kali killed their verse and the world is going to hear that. It was super important for me to have international representation for my deluxe project. I cannot wait to see how everyone responds to it! I want everyone to feel GOOD and ready to get back into the open world we so dearly missed.”

Charmaine’s last offering was the official music video for ‘DOUBLE DUTCH’ that saw her serve culture and couture – watch here. Charmaine has continued to impress and grow her loving fan base and with over three million streams of her debut EP, it’s clear she’s making noise that fans can’t get enough of.

Following her First on SoundCloud selection (being the only Canadian to ever be selected for the platform’s accelerated program) Charmaine rounded up her team to chop it up with DJ, producer, entrepreneur, and former MTV host, Jasmine Solano on Clubhouse. The discussion touched on Charmaine’s artistry and behind the scenes moments with her team that landed her to where she is today. The in-depth conversation was filled with inspiration for creatives everywhere on respecting the hustle that drives career success.

Listed as one of 25 artists to watch in 2021 by Complex Canada, “Queen of the North“ by Earmilk and a “bop connoisseur” by Notion, Charmaine is on her way up with no looking down.

MTS Management Group artists celebrates friendship with new release “A Song for My Friends”

MTS Management Group artists’ latest release, “A Song for My Friends,” is a happy, upbeat song that captures the magic of being together, celebrating, and remembering. The track has a contagious energy that is like the spirit of late-night jam sessions and sing-alongs that happen out of the blue. The production is clean and smooth, but also laid-back.

The tune of “A Song for My Friends” is a toast, and it’s clear what the band wants. A party for the people who have been there since the beginning, the fans who keep coming back, and the nights that artists will never forget that remind them why they fell in love with music in the first place.

“A Song for My Friends” stands out in a world full of overproduced singles because it has heart, energy, and honesty. It’s a moment we shared that I put in a bottle and sent to you with a chorus that you’ll be singing long after the music stops.

Michael Soul hides from being open with new release “Hiding”

Michael Soul’s new single, “Hiding,” is a dark, hypnotic electronic track that takes listeners to a private place in their minds where they are alone, thinking, and feeling upset. “Hiding” was written when the author was very lonely. Michael Soul turns days of being alone, when silence seemed to last forever, and connection seemed impossible, into an immersive sound.

Andrea Mastroiacovo’s polished work makes the single even better, clarifying and deepening the song’s dark mood. The production carefully reflects that emotional weight with simple textures and dark electronic sounds that make you feel like you’re alone with your thoughts.

“Hiding” is a song about feeling alone, scared, and wanting to hide from being open. It asks questions that are quiet but sharp, like why do we hide what we feel? How does fear ruin love? And can we stop going in circles of misunderstanding and emotional distance? These echoes linger long after the track ends, prolonging the sound.
