Yeza Continues Making Headlines With The Release Of “Tek Chat”
Yeza continues to make headlines with the release of her recent trending single “Tek Chat.” It’s not a surprise that the “youth uprising” has been surging across global regions for a decade. The voice of the youth spoken, who generally have “low expectations that the government, corporations, and other institutions will prioritize them or consider their needs. The younger generation is connected to social justice and climate change; these all resonate with Yeza.
YEZA’s latest release, “Tek Chat” (produced by Sinky Beats & Yeza Music), is a Third World/Steel Pulse-esque reincarnation exemplifying meaningful narrations of the youth crying out and effecting social change.
In her own words and citing her inspiration for the track, “It is about time that we acknowledge that the bedrock of Jamaican culture and the fascinating assets that we put on display to sell to foreigners comes from the ‘ghetto minds.’ The ghetto birthed our precious musical genres, the reggae, the dancehall, which all have adopted.”
In tune with her powerful introduction to the track “Keep the vibes up high, and we never gonna let you down!!! Yeza cites many impactful achievements of Jamaicans, such as those sportspersons, fashion, and creatives, amongst others, that have risen from impoverished communities to global notoriety despite their humble beginnings.
These expressions create the solid cultural threads of the island, birthing genres and new sounds of music to top athletes. Yet, these residents are decimated the most by political intervention and lack of opportunities. Yet, Yeza, through her powerful lyricism, may be perceived as calling out the government on these matters. However, it serves as a reminder that the youth, most of all, are holding their leaders accountable for their mandates, which include sustainability and social change for the next generation.
This social commentary, “Tek Chat,” amplified by classic and modern instruments reminiscent of the greats like King Jammy and the significant dub era, is out worldwide (to include the official music video) on Friday, 18th November 2022.

“That’s Not a Lie” by Tamar Berk evokes a symbolic trial with vulnerable bruises of truths
In “That’s Not a Lie,” Tamar Berk, a San Diego-based singer-songwriter, showcases her remarkable ability to deliver an intimately profound and soul-baring look into the murky waters of self-realization and relationship dynamics. This track, featured as the second song on her latest album, ‘Good Times for a Change,’ encapsulates the ache of self-discovery while navigating sometimes painful truths that emerge from personal reflection. Berk’s musical style embodies an indie-pop rock sound that resonates with tinges of nostalgia while simultaneously exhibiting a classic edge drawing parallels to the unfiltered emotions expressed by artists such as Snail Mail and the haunting introspection commonly associated with Phoebe Bridgers.
The accompanying music video employs an interrogation-style narrative, ingeniously reflecting the internal emotional scrutiny individuals frequently experience within themselves. As Berk’s vocals soar, traversing a deliberately tension-filled melody, she encourages the audience to confront their hidden faults and vulnerabilities. The video artfully portrays various therapy sessions characterized by both accusation and gentle reconciliation that come from being indeed seen, almost like a one-on-one interrogation where Berk is both witness and participant. While the setting conveys weighty themes, it serves as a symbolic trial, not designed to judge or deliver a verdict but to foster an underlying sense of acceptance and understanding. It creates an anthemic warmth that reassures listeners of the solace in the company of those who genuinely understand, care for, and accept them.
Through poignant lyrics that penetrate the haze of uncertainty, Berk’s songwriting deftly captures the intricate dance of honesty that often occurs in our interactions with those closest to us in relationships. “That’s Not a Lie” is a compelling reminder that acknowledging our truths, including the more arduous aspects, constitutes a decisive step towards personal growth. This composition emphasizes the understanding that authentic comfort arises from embracing our true selves rather than shying away from the complexities of our identities. Tamar Berk has produced a sincere and engaging piece, rendering it a must-listen for anyone brave enough to confront their imperfections.
