Just recently Da Foundation dropped their second independent studio album Sabbat Noir which caters to their audience in unique fashion. Coming from uptempo projects like “Money Neva Sleepz” and “Live Suffer Celebrate”. Da Foundation’s subtle approach to the new project displays their growth as artists tremendously in its structure, lyricism, production and style. 

Da Foundation stated in the past when creating a project they would like to receive countless amounts of production from various producers. With Sabbat Noir that just wasn’t the case. Da Foundation specifically hand picked the production and sounds you hear on this album. Almost as if they knew what direction they wanted to go in before actual songs were complete. Rumor has it Sabbat Noir II is in the conservation.

Seen in the studio with none other than Grammy-nominated, platinum-selling Latin producer Lil Geniuz, Miami’s rising star RichKiidNick has fans and industry insiders asking the same question:

Is an album on the way?

After a string of emotional hits, viral moments, and iced-out visuals, RichKiidNick is proving he’s more than just a lifestyle — he’s a movement. Known for his melodic pain-infused flows, boss energy, and signature Miami shine, Nick’s link-up with Lil Geniuz has the streets AND the blogs talking.

With Geniuz’s track record of producing for Latin giants and chart-topping records, and Nick’s story-driven lyricism and loyal following, this collab could be the crossover album we didn’t know we needed.

Stay locked.

The vibe? Luxury. Realness. Global appeal.

The moment? Now.

Da Foundation has recently performed at the Levono Center in Raleigh, NC. but the movement will not stop there. Continuing their journey, Da Foundation, recently released their album Sabbat Noir on May 20, 2025. Da Foundation continues to create music that is relatable, as they speak from existing moments as well as the past.

"Lust Paradise is a product of relief. It also can be a product of accountability. We often associate lust with love or love with lust and never hold ourselves accountable to the outcome...." Casso stated during the post album review of Sabbat Noir. "It’s hard to single out a track and say it has the most impact when each song represents something unique. In a space where we focus on substance in our music each song has its own impact equally."

Da Foundation speaks from the heart when they are in the music studio, which is why whenever these artists have a chance to perform on stage, they leave the crowd applaud. 

The combination between Mu Smoova and Mile Casso only creates lighting and heat. Producers like Emmanuel Williams as Manny Beats Chi, vTomic and Track Pros and Dreez of Global Sound, all would say, these two are magical and one of a kind when they are in the studio.

Da Foundation performed a fans favorite City of Gold and Lust Paradise well as Joe Lighting and Pussy. 

"Favorite songs is a tie between Lust Paradise and City of Gold I just really enjoy the beat and tempo.." Mu Smoova stated.

Da Foundation says this album is going to raise the bar. Stay tuned!

Hybrid Collapse is a boundary-blurring audiovisual AI project that fuses electronic music, generated visuals, and critical theory into a single immersive experience. The work is not merely an album or a series of videos — it's a conceptual framework for navigating life in a world dominated by digital abstraction, biopolitical control, and posthuman aesthetics.

The debut album Biopolitics is a meticulously structured narrative told across ten tracks, each accompanied by a corresponding AI-crafted video. The music moves from ambient decay to glitch-infused industrial and dystopian pop, building a world where identity is no longer stable but perpetually reprogrammed. Themes of surveillance, sexuality, artificial embodiment, and algorithmic behavior are embedded into both the sonic and visual layers, creating a unified, confrontational aesthetic.

What sets Hybrid Collapse apart is its integration of philosophical depth with striking cinematic style. The project draws on thinkers like Agamben, Haraway, and Baudrillard, translating abstract ideas into visceral, hyperreal sequences. Visually, the videos feature haunting figures — black-robed priestesses, synthetic lovers, faceless enforcers — all enacting rituals in bleak urban and ritualistic environments. Fire, oil, and shadows become symbols of sacrifice, transformation, and spiritual surrender to technological systems.

Unlike many AI-driven art experiments, Hybrid Collapse isn’t about novelty — it’s about meaning. Artificial intelligence is not a tool here, but a voice within the system. It co-authors the collapse.

Biopolitics is an act of resistance and a requiem — a refusal to submit quietly to digital hegemony, even while dressed in its skin. It is both warning and prophecy.

In today’s music scene, independence is power—but it can also be overwhelming. Artists are expected to do it all: write, record, mix, shoot visuals, post content, run ads, pitch playlists, and grow a fanbase. For a while, that grind feels productive. But eventually, even the most dedicated artist hits a wall.

That’s exactly what happened to Chicago artist YBZ Vandr. He spent years doing everything on his own. He learned how to engineer his own tracks, shoot music videos, build his brand, and promote every release by himself. He made it work longer than most would. But the more he tried to juggle, the more he realized he wasn’t growing the way he wanted to. It wasn’t about talent or work ethic—it was about bandwidth.

That realization led to the creation of CTRL Music Group.

CTRL isn’t a label. It isn’t just a studio. It’s a team that steps in where most artists burn out. Built by someone who’s lived the artist experience from every angle, CTRL helps creatives move like pros without needing a million-dollar deal. It’s all about focus, execution, and growth.

Here’s what CTRL actually does. The team helps artists with everything from the ground up. They book studio time, manage mixing and mastering, shoot professional music videos, build content calendars, and guide artists through full rollout strategies. From short-form content to long-form campaigns, CTRL makes sure nothing gets left behind.

Once the music is ready, CTRL handles the release from top to bottom. That means helping with distribution, building hype with pre-release content, creating ad campaigns, pitching to playlists, and keeping the momentum going long after the drop. Artists no longer have to guess what to do next—CTRL lays it out and gets it done.

Every plan is tailored. Whether the artist has a $500 budget or $5,000, CTRL helps them invest it the right way to get real results and build a fanbase that sticks.

The best part? It still feels personal. CTRL isn’t trying to force artists into a formula. They work closely with each client to keep the vision authentic while adding the structure and support needed to grow.

CTRL also helps with show bookings and performance prep, giving artists the opportunity to connect with real audiences. In a time where most artists are stuck in a cycle of posting and hoping, CTRL gives them a real-world path forward.

If you’re an artist who’s tired of trying to do everything on your own, CTRL might be what you’ve been missing. It’s built for the creators who are serious about their craft but need a team that understands both the art and the business.

Independent doesn’t mean alone. CTRL Music Group is proof of that.
