Rapper SEVNTEEN Commands Attention On New Single “Sky High”
SEVNTEEN is a dynamic artist determined to make an imprint on the rap scene. His natural swagger commands attention while his music delivers distinctive energy, as he effortlessly flows over production consisting of big synths and hard-hitting drums. Having signed with Babygrande Records, he’s made a strong first impression with the release of his first official track and music video, “Sky High“, which serves as the lead single for his upcoming album, XVII.
Directed by GT films, the video for “Sky High” sees SEVNTEEN and his classmates re-create a raucous school day. Despite the chaos on the school bus and in the school’s hallways, his calm, laid back demeanor proves to be a fixating aspect of the video. In less than a week, the video reached over 170,000 views and proved to be a stellar debut for the young, talented artist.
“Sky High” is about reaching new heights,” the 19-year-old artist explains. “It’s also about having fun, and I had a lot of fun creating this song. I was sky high when I made it. The whole purpose of the track is to create a different vibe and that’s what I did here. The video is amazing. The shoot process was a surreal experience. Shout out to GT Films because they did their thing. I’m excited for everyone to see it. It’s amazing to see all the hard work I’ve put in come to life.”
The track and visual complement each other very well: SEVNTEEN’s inspired on-screen performance drives the track to new heights. He’s found a way to blend current aesthetics to create a unique style; the product is an enticing image for fans and listeners to grasp onto. As an artist who’s at the forefront of rap’s new sound and style, SEVNTEEN is positioned to make a grand entrance with “Sky High”.
Album Review
R3b3l I explores self-discovery through sound on “A Different Frequency” album
In a music scene often ruled by lyrics, R3b3l I proves that you can tell a powerful story without a single lyric. “A Different Frequency” is a twelve-track instrumental hip-hop and rap-inspired album inviting you into a deeply personal journey of growth, self-discovery, and purpose, speaking its message purely through mood, rhythm, and expression.
“Dance Before the Throne” opens the album, immediately establishing the tone of reflection and reverence. From here, “Elevate” and “The Wave” continue, adding momentum and a sense of movement and change. Each piece is a chapter in a larger story, allowing you to interpret the music with your own experience.
Songs like “I AM Power,” “Level Up,” and “Awaken” seem to be a big part of the progression of the album. The energy is one of empowerment and inner evolution. “The Jazzy Hop” is a nice change of pace in style, with a smooth, groove-flavored taste that shows R3b3l I’s versatility. Meanwhile, “Carousel,” “Raindrops,” and “Heartbeat” are moments of introspection that balance uplifting themes with emotional depth and openness.
The project wraps up on an emotional high with “Ancestors,” a heartfelt tribute to the forebears and the invisible forces that still influence us on our journeys. It’s a fitting way to close out an album about connection, growth, and purpose. “A Different Frequency” is more than a collection of tracks with carefully constructed instrumentals and thoughtful sequencing, and it’s a rewarding journey for those who want immersive instrumental hip-hop with heart, imagination, and substance.

“Signalling Signatures” finds Mr Pigeons exploring dreams, truth, and hidden meanings
While the first look at an upcoming project usually sets the expectations, Mr Pigeons does something more ambitious with “Signalling Signatures.” With this release, the hip-hop artist opens up a portal into “Shining Arras,” inviting you into a world where dreams, symbols, and hidden meanings collide.
“Signalling Signatures” is an exploration of the thin veil between reality and imagination, based on themes of altered consciousness and shifting perspectives.

The thing about “Signalling Signatures” that is so compelling is its sheer audacity to challenge you. There are no easy answers in this song, only a quest for truth, perception, and uncertainty.
