Earl Sweatshirt and The Alchemist have launched the full version of “Voir Dire” on various streaming platforms

In the constantly changing music industry, it’s become quite usual for artists to work together. This year, enthusiasts of underground rap enjoyed an exceptional alliance between rapper Earl Sweatshirt and producer The Alchemist. The pair joined forces to develop a new project named VOIR DIRE. While this wasn’t their initial collaboration – Earl had earlier featured on The Alchemist’s Flying High EP – the news of this venture was greeted with immense enthusiasm from their followers.

However, the release of VOIR DIRE was not without its controversies. The album was initially dropped exclusively on Gala, an NFT-based music streaming platform. This decision was met with backlash from fans who were unwilling to create an account on a crypto music website just to listen to the album.

In response to the fans’ outcry, Earl Sweatshirt and The Alchemist reassured their audience that the album would eventually be made available on other streaming platforms. Furthermore, they promised that the album would feature new tracks when it did finally hit streaming. The new songs brought the album’s total to 11 tracks, with a running time of just under half an hour. The album also features two appearances from Vince Staples and another from MIKE.

Currently, Earl and The Alchemist have embarked on a tour to promote VOIR DIRE, with a lineup of 11 concerts nationwide, featuring MIKE and Black Noi$e. This follows Earl Sweatshirt’s series of solo performances throughout the year, one of which was a notable August concert where he hinted at a possible Frank Ocean appearance that, unfortunately, did not materialize.

The full version of VOIR DIRE is now available on streaming platforms. Fans are encouraged to share their thoughts on the album in the comment section.

The tracklist for VOIR DIRE is as follows:

1. 100 High Street

2. Vin Skully

3. Sentry (feat. MIKE)

4. Heat Check

5. Mancala (feat. Vince Staples)

6. 27 Braids

7. Mac Deuce

8. Sirius Blac

9. Dead Zone

10. The Caliphate (feat. Vince Staples)

In conclusion, the collaboration between Earl Sweatshirt and The Alchemist has proven to be a unique blend of talent and creativity. Despite initial controversies surrounding its release, VOIR DIRE is now available for all fans to enjoy.

Lana Crow turns challenges into a celebration with “Laugh With You”

“Laugh With You,” the latest single from Lana Crow, is a sincere rallying cry to embrace life in all its messy, beautiful mess. In the song, indie pop and alt-pop combine to deliver an emotional blow that feels both personal and universal.

“Laugh With You” feels like an instant connection, and Crow is telling you stories of hard times with a cozy, knowing smile. This song is as much about struggle as it is about how strong you are. It serves as a reminder that these struggles are simply what give us the strength to keep going, even when life is tough.

Crow encourages people to welcome them, create happiness in the cracks, and laugh even as the world gets heavy. The result is a song that delicately nudges you to love and embrace yourself. It is an anthem for anyone experiencing tough times who refuses to give up hope. Lana Crow continues to demonstrate her songwriting skills, both musically pleasing and emotionally rich, with “Laugh With You.”

It’s a reminder that it’s how we respond to tough times, rather than how they affect us, that’s key. With this song, not only does Crow provide us with music, but she also lets us know that sometimes a laugh is what we need to remember that there is always something to smile about and that, even when it feels like life has waged war against you, laughter can still be found.

Lisa Boostani creates a mesmerizing tidal realm in “Ocean”

Lisa Boostani’s “Ocean” takes you deep into a sensory world where body, spirit, and myth come together, beyond the surface of genre. Boostani makes a soundscape that is both ethereal and deeply human by combining the broad essence of psychedelic pop with the strong appeal of alternative rock.

Her voice rises as if it is coming from deep within her, shaped by emotion rather than action. She intentionally channels the intangible, turning weakness into strength rather than a source of pain, and “Ocean” tells people to get involved in this inner world, not just watch it. This release is an integral part of her first EP, “One,” which will come out in March 2026 and is based on love, sensuality, and unity.

If “Ocean” is any indication, the EP will show sensuality not as something pretty, but as a kind of spiritual intelligence, a way to know yourself by connecting with others. The song’s textures and structure have an aquatic quality, moving between clarity and delirium, rhythm and freedom. Its emotional focus is on immersion instead of resolution.

The striking quality of “Ocean” is the blend of the mystical worlds. Boostani understands that strength often shows up as gentleness and that deep feelings are better expressed through frequencies than words. She wants people to see consciousness as immediacy, sensation as truth, and openness as an undeniable strength.
