Elly Tess Confronts Heartbreak Head-On In Her NewSingle “sad girl”

Pop singer-songwriter Elly Tess delivers a clever sharpness on her pointed single “sad girl,” out November 5. With songwriting as her main outlet to process intense emotions, Tess allowed herself to pour every ounce of hurt, betrayal, and bitterness into this track. “I constantly get lost in my feelings,” she says, and “sad girl’ is the portrayal of the chaos that can sometimes overtake my mind when I write about something particularly emotional to me.” This single finds its roots in a devastating experience the singer songwriter had with reckless affection; Tess tells the story of falling quickly for someone who did not show up the same way. “sad girl” is an anthemic declaration of contempt for an estranged romance.

Tess’s smooth vocal delicately floats atop crisp production characterized by sharp percussion. Incorporating the sharpness of contemporary pop and R&B beats with Tess’s thoughtful lyricism, this track delivers a chic boldness that beautifully expresses the singer songwriter’s spiteful angst. Subtle versus lead up to all encompassing choruses stacked with powerful background vocals in which Tess unleashes the full scope of her emotions. Meticulously crafted instrumentation perfectly complements the singer songwriter’s emotional lyrics and passionate performance; “sad girl” is irrefutably danceable, and the perfect angsty anthem for any pop/R&B lover.

“Home Sweet Home” by Michellar delivers a heartfelt tribute to seeking comfort in adversity

Michellar

There is something incredibly honest about Michellar’s latest single, “Home Sweet Home.” From the moment the first note hits, listeners are drawn into a deeply personal and universally relatable anthemic ballad.

Based in San Francisco, singer-songwriter and producer Michellar invests considerable emotional fidelity into this track, crafting a hauntingly evocative melody that echoes the longing we all feel when searching for a place of safety, whether physical or emotional. “Home Sweet Home” goes beyond merely telling a tale; it unravels a feeling that resonates in the quiet moments between the lyrics.

The beautifully restrained production allows Harrison Black’s vocal contributions to take center stage; his performance is delicate and robust, infusing the composition with a palpable sense of vulnerability and resilience to the song. Lyrically, “Home Sweet Home” employs the poignant metaphor of a runaway reuniting with a father, which symbolizes the intrinsic human desire to return to the comfort of familiarity while also depicting the internal conflict of escaping one’s demons. Mixed and mastered in the UK before returning to California, the track possesses an atmospheric depth that enhances its immersive quality, transforming each listening experience into a rich auditory journey.

What makes “Home Sweet Home” stand out isn’t just its substantive message but how it delivers it gracefully, intimately, and with an emotional weight that feels impossible to shake. Michellar’s talent for distilling complex emotions into relatable narratives cements their relevance in the contemporary music landscape, reminding us that music transcends sound to forge genuine connections.

F1lthy Challenges DJ Akademiks to a Boxing Match After Controversial Comments on Playboi Carti’s MUSIC

HonkMagazine

The hip-hop scene is buzzing with excitement, and it’s not just about the music this time. F1lthy, a prominent producer who played a big role in Playboi Carti’s new album MUSIC, has thrown down a bold challenge that caught everyone off guard. This all started when DJ Akademiks, a well-known media personality, made some waves with his comments about the album’s launch, including some questionable claims about who was really behind its direction. Akademiks suggested that rapper Kendrick Lamar was the one creatively guiding the album, but F1lthy stepped in to set the record straight.

Instead of accepting the correction, Akademiks dismissed F1lthy, saying he didn’t even know who he was. For someone as influential as F1lthy, known for his work since Carti’s Whole Lotta Red, that comment felt personal. In response, F1lthy took to social media and issued a playful challenge, “You owe me a boxing match at Barclays Center.” Many fans are now excited about the idea of these two going head to head in the ring. Recently, it’s become trendy for celebrities to settle their disputes through boxing matches.

However, beneath this playful banter lies a more serious issue about how much respect producers deserve in the music industry. F1lthy has heavily influenced the unique sound of MUSIC, and his talent deserves recognition. While Akademiks may grab headlines with his commentary, it’s F1lthy’s beats that listeners truly enjoy. As the back and forth continues, it’s clear that their tension is far from resolved. Whether we’ll actually see a boxing match at Barclays Center is uncertain, F1lthy is ready to defend his name and fight for recognition.
