Damn... This song really hits home. For anyone who has loved and lost love, the words and emotions in James Knight's new song "Abandoned" are very powerful! You could be in a large party full of women and still fill alone. It takes so long to get over something like this and once you get over the pain in you stomach feeling lol, then you are left with nothing, but the memory. 

Whoever directed the video really pushed the envelope. It is straight out of a movie.. literally!!! On the mini-movie/music video, James uses the metaphor of surviving a zombie apocolyse to that of being "Abandoned" by his girl. The scenes, special effects, and performances are like no other!!!


MORE INFO:  James Knight is a hot up and coming star out if Philadelphia. Soon to take the whole world by storm. His video abandoned is a breath of fresh air in a urban market where these half rapping and singing guys are dominating the radio. James Knight brings forth good Ole fashion R&B Reminiscent to the greats of yester year. #JamesKnight

We 1st heard of WestCoast representative, Hard Head's music from our Midwest blog connection, but was pleasantly surprised at 1st listen! Now we are proud to present more dope g music from Hard Head!! This time he releases a banger called "Sweet". He has the great gift to pull you into his story and feel the hunger, "Sweet" is no different. 




Check his bio and last music review below:


BIO:
"Hard Head... That’s Gangsta, right?
That’s what the street’s SAY!
Not when it’s the studio GANGSTA music. Yeah…REAL GANGSTA MUSIC. Some fresh-laced new hip hop food from the infamous Los Angeles, and he’s attracting attention!
Just like the known trade marks of Los Angeles, HARD HEAD satisfies the urge for truthful down- to- earth soul-reaching street music. What else would you expect from a California boy coming from the heart?
He’s been broadly categorized as a sort of “gangsta mix of r&b/funk/pop/”strait from the West Coast right from the heart. Yeah, ALRIGHT…but it’s more than that.
It’s Hard Head making track’s,
Hard Head’s songwriting draws from his experience…in life and in musical influences…but it’s how he put’s it together that’s the key
Yes he draws from it all: Ice Cube, Dr. Dre , and Kid Rock. Black Eye Pea’s, Marvin Gaye, Steve Wonder, and 50 cent. But it really WORK’S!"

Come along to the club with Alski as he spits mad game to a fine honey! "I Go Hard" is a club banger that will have you singing along. The beat is high octane. There's some keyboard work in there that reminds me of chinatown for some reason. Overall, this banger is about doing what you do to the fullest! Go Hard!!!

The single will be released worldwide to major outlets including ITunes, Google Play and Amazon."


 









"Nightlife Fifty-Five" is an amazing array of dream-like symphonies for the soul! "Nightlife Fifty-Five" by That Man Santiago is a collection of 11 dark synthesized tracks that tell various stories over superior production. Standout tracks are the laidback and conscious, "Nightlife" & the banger "Tell Somebody" featuring my homeboy Byro!


"The project was recorded and mixed at Soundscape Studios in Chicago. The concept behind the project was to create an honest soundtrack of a person's thoughts before and after a night out in the city. During the length of the tape I travel between thoughts of "turning up" and not worrying about the consequences, to thinking about the repercussions of my actions. The tape touches upon the idea that we are all filled with contradictions; however those contradictions are what help us learn and grow as people."


Listen to his interview with The Dopeness interview series below!










Revolutionary beatmaker, Magnificent, brings you a innovative collection of musical landscapes for the soul! "Visions. from the other side" are 10 new beats that show his depth and creativity as a producer. Stand out beats for me include: the deep and dark story telling mood on "Venezuela"; the playful yet crafty "Animals"; the bangin' bassline and piano work on "Intensity"; and the supreme smoothness of "Royal"!!!
