RAPPER SICHAT IS BREAKING THE STATUS QUO AND ADVANCING TO NEW HEIGHTS IN HIS MUSIC CAREER
Both my parents are hobby musicians so music was always part of my life. When I was about five years old I remember watching a rock show on TV and I thought to myself:“ This is what I wanted to do.“
At twelve I finally got the chance to learn the drums and from there I was practicing like crazy to pursue my dreams of becoming a musician. I played in many bands over my teenage years and always took great pleasure in songwriting. Unfortunately, I was most of the time the only one in the band with serious ambitions. So bands were falling apart again and again.
In 2013 I moved to Stuttgart (GER) to become a member of Way to Bodhi. Here things finally were different. I met people with the same ideals as mine. The perfect ground to flourish as an artist. For the band, I thought of myself in sound design and electronic music production. That way I could contribute even more to the bands’ compositions. We even managed to get a world record.
We were working hard, every day. Still, things started to slow down, and because I am a very impatient person, it was inevitable that we had to part ways one day.
After that, I tried to found my own band. But I quickly ran into the same problem again. Finding people with the same ambition and mindset was impossible. So I had to drop that as well.
So here I was, over a decade of bands, composing and self-improvement and nothing worked. I was devastated. I had to make a decision. Me or the world.
And I decided: me.
I wouldn’t allow anyone to stop me from chasing that one dream I have. I was not born with any kind of exceptional talent and if I’m not where I want to be in my life, it is not because of others. It is because of myself.
So SicHat is like a promise to myself. Become better with every song, with every release. One step at a time. I thought of myself in audio engineering and graphic design. If I have to do everything by myself, so be it.
If you could describe your sound/style in one word, what would it be and why?
I guess the word would be: unexpected.
I have a vision of how I want my music to sound. And at the same time, I tend to mix and combine different styles and genres together. A lot of time I am surprised how well some of those elements can actually work together.
Neither my listeners nor I can expect the next song I ́ll create. But that is what makes SicHat so exciting to me, because to surprise yourself is a really cool thing.
What would you say to any aspiring recording artist who looks up to your work?
To become the best you can be is something only you can achieve and no one else. As long as you can get up one more time then you feel down you will see success in whatever it is you do. If you fail 100 times try 101 times. It’s not success that makes you better it’s your mistakes. Every failure is one more stepping stone on your path to greatness.
Do you have anything new or upcoming we can expect to see from you?
After Fire, we are now actually planning the next release yes. There are three more singles that I want to release for this year and I already got enough songs for the next year as well. I will keep writing new songs and aim to release a new single every 2 – 3 months. There are also some plans to connect our next music videos with a hidden story over several releases.

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.

BluntBrad Jr. finds calm ambition in the laid-back shine of “It’s All Good”
BluntBrad Jr.’s new single, “It’s All Good,” sounds like a steady handshake and a deep breath. It’s warm, honest, and not trying to be cool. There isn’t any fancy production hiding behind layers of polish here. Instead, the song is all about being honest. The song is laid-back and offers up the shine of a studio recording for the feeling of a candid introduction, a musical “hello” from someone who wants to be heard for who they are.
“It’s All Good” is a very human way to be hopeful at its core. The feeling is simple and real, like someone who won’t let little things stand in the way of their goals. The words to the song sound like friends talking to each other. They discuss their goals, their drive, and their need for attention in a way that is honest and not needy.
The production backs this up by making sure that everything is open and airy. The instruments are simple and easy to understand, so BluntBrad Jr.’s voice and message come through clearly. The song feels real because it doesn’t have a lot of extra stuff in it. You’re not hearing a heavily constructed persona; you’re hearing someone at the start of a journey, eager to make their mark.
The song’s rough edges make it captivating, which is better than polish, which would have smoothed it out. This way of thinking fits with the theme: hope isn’t naive here; it’s realistic and steady. It speaks to people who like simple songs and value honesty over artifice.
“It’s All Good” is an engaging and approachable phrase that offers context for an artist who is confident and clear about their artistic vision. This is the kind of song you listen to when you need some honest encouragement to remember that just being human can help you move forward. This is only the first chapter of something serious, so expect more from him.
