Deante’ Hitchcock Releases Deluxe Version Of “Better” With New Features From Guapdad 4000, REASON, & More

Atlanta is known for the syrupy trap music that has historically consisted of the city’s sound but, with such a vast slate of artists coming out of the South, there are definitely more than a few budding stars that are shifting shapes in their own ways.

Deante’ Hitchcock is one of those artists, dancing more along the lines of a JID than a Future.

With his debut studio album BETTER releasing earlier this year, Deante’ reached a whole new audience and finally opened some more eyes to his outstanding sound. The original tracklist included features from JID, Young Nudy, 6LACK, Miguel, and more.

Today, Deante’ follows up on his BET Hip-Hop Awards cypher with the release of his deluxe album, which consists of ten additional songs added onto the initial tracklisting. New features from Guapdad 4000, REASON, Kenny Mason, and more highlight the deluxe.

Kieran James Honors Memory with “Part of the Grind”

Singer-songwriter Kieran James delivers a devastating new single with “Part of the Grind,” a track to tackle the tangled emotions behind loss and memory. A love letter penned to a close friend who faced severe cognitive decline, the song’s emotional heft feels universal yet heartbreakingly personal.

Set to delicate instrumentation and achingly sung vocals, “Part of the Grind” is both a lament and an honoring, a means of remembering while addressing the unavoidable cost of time and illness. His voice floats, leaving room for silence and the long pauses that so often come with grief. But in that silence, there is warmth as well, a refusal to let memory be totally extinguished.

Resilience is also implied in the song’s title, a reminder that even in heartbreak, life goes on and holding the memory of someone stays with the rhythm of everyday living. it’s an anthem for anyone who has ever looked on witnessing decline, mixed sorrow with love.

In Kieran James’s “Part of the Grind,” we hear music as well as go behind it. He gives us room feel, to mourn, and to honor. In the process, he turns private pain into something achingly universal, a song for everyone who has either loved or lost.
