Joyner Lucas & Rick Ross Reflect On Their Success In New Song “Legend”

Joyner Lucas dropped his brand new project called Evolution on Friday and as the name suggests, we are made privy to the progress of an artist who has continued to increase his fanbase with each new release. While Lucas started out as an artist who was mostly known for story-driven music videos, Lucas has morphed into a fully realized artist, which has been proven with his latest drops. In his song “Legend” with Rick Ross, Joyner reflects on this success alongside one of hip-hop’s most well-respected names.

Immediately upon playing the song, we are met with piano ballad vibes as Joyner offers a spoken word intro about his own rags to riches story. He then displays his usual lyricism while Rick Ross joins the song to give his signature touch.

Stream the song below, and let us know what you think.

Quotable Lyrics:

And lately, I’ve been tryna hold my blessings
You talk to God, but you don’t know the message
Those are lessons (Yeah)
Walkin’ in circles without no direction
No exceptions (Woah)

Kenton Hall and The Necessary Measures‘ latest release, “The Sun Shone Down,” is a huge track and proudly wears independent artistry.

Each layer, strings, horns, keys, choirs, creates a cinematic yet emotional sound.

The philosophy behind “The Sun Shone Down” is intriguing. Kenton Hall embraces limitations, making collaboration and creativity the currency of the song. The music evokes gratitude. That reflects the amazing people and artistic relationships that shaped the record. It is ambitious for spectacle and emotional impact.

The Real Mack The Knife honors memory and spirit with soulful release “Rio Grande de Loíza”

The song “Rio Grande de Loíza” by The Real Mack The Knife is a powerful tribute to Puerto Rico’s history, memory, and sacred spirit. The track transforms nature into something spiritual, intimate, and timeless, inspired by the legendary river and Julia de Burgos’ immortal voice.

The song “Rio Grande de Loíza” has an old, alive vibe from the beginning. River water, moonlight, desire, and cultural memory shape a song that seems to rise from the ground. The Real Mack The Knife uses the river as a living, symbolic being, unlike the original work.

Julia de Burgos gives the piece incredible depth. She sees the river as a witness, a mother, a wound, a mirror, and a prayer throughout the song’s emotional landscape. The literary and spiritual connection gives the track a haunting beauty beyond music.
