DREVO COOLIDGE - THE DREVOMENTARY

Discover the rap artist who is changing Mississippi's underground hip hop music scene for good.

Before the sold out Bermuda tours, gigs, the recent Sony deal for the release of his single, "Bermuda", the independently released chart-topping songs and the illustrious music career, Mississippi rapper, Coolidge was already regarded as one of the top independent hip hop contenders in his region and had already been predicted to become a force that would be reckoned with in hip hop music for years to come. A multi-talented and prolific artist, Coolidge was focused on becoming just that and continues to show the same if not a more thorough work ethic, dishing out back to back hit records, each one more highly anticipated that the last and persistently exceeding any and all expectations.

Ahead of the premiere of his latest music video, "Passport" tonight, SRLTV uncovered previously unseen footage of the rapper in his prime in 2013 with interviews, live performances and other behind the scenes footage in a short film called The Drevomentary.

VINYL DREAMS DO COME TRUE

Newly reissued EP by Shoegaze band, The Bilinda Butchers - Get it on MP3|WAV|VINYL|CD

Originally released in 2012, "Goodbyes" was one of the most sensational records released by San Francisco dream pop trio, The Bilinda Butchers at the time and is still being celebrated by fans even up till today for its groundbreaking and painfully satisfying production. Critics are still calling it one of the most rewarding EPs Shoegaze has ever experienced. 

Experimenting with genre-blending while skillfully incorporating dramatic and deeply moving themes, The BBS were able to create a signature sound that would become one of the most recognisable in Dream Pop and Shoegaze music for years to come, a sound which has been emulated but never duplicated ever since, and which continues to evolve gracefully with every new release.

The 5 track EP, initially released in MP3, WAV and digital formats, was first made available on CD and Vinyl via Discau, a small independent record label, but it has now been re-issued on Vinyl via The Bilinda Butchers' official website for fans who couldn't get a copy then.

WITNESS THE FITNESS

Listen to the podcast free on iTunes, discover independent music releases by Idrise and download mp3

Some may know him from his popular Fitness & Nutrition podcast on iTunes, Real Talk With Mr. USA, aimed at getting America back in shape, others know him for his musical talents, either way Idrise has been at his best for a while now and is ready to take on the world.

At the time of its release on the 9th of May, 2017, "At My Best", originally recorded and released by US rapper, Machine Gun Kelly under the Bad Boy; Interscope imprint was one of the hottest records out and it was hard to even imagine a cover song that would, not only compare but even take the song to a whole new level - Idrise's cover with Arizona, US folk singer, Lauren Black did just that.

The independent Los Angeles R&B singer has been one of the hottest urban artists in Frankfurt, Germany since he moved to and lived in the region close to the start of his career around 2011/2012. With hit records like "Netflix & Chill", he topped the music charts many times, not just in Germany where he topped iTunes, MTV and other charts in the R&B category, but also in Europe as a whole. Just over years after his return to the US in a bid to dominate in the international market, he's already made numerous headlines with a string of new releases that have created buzz in California and the US as a whole, including "Overtime", "Controlla" and his most recent release with another US-based Frankfurt artist, Tommy Gunz, "Privacy", and he still retains his title as one of Europe's top R&B acts. 

At My Best was also recently named MTV's Cover Of The Month in Italy.

THE EARLY BIRD GETS THE J

Download the new song by Chriz J on Apple Music, iTunes and Spotify from today, July 10, 2017

Known for one of his most successful records to date, "Gettin' Money", released back in 2012, Chicago born and raised rapper, Chriz J started honing his talent since the early age of 11 years old, writing poetry and taking part in musical activities locally to foster the development of his craft. 

The founder of New Mill Entertainment, an independent record label in Chicago under which he has released the plethora of hip hop masterpieces that has evolved progressively over the years and is now becoming one of the most sizable, comprehensive and highly regarded underground hip hop music catalogs in the region, consisting of numerous independently released chart-topping singles, mixtapes, EPs, and videos, Chriz's sound is often described as "go-getter music". It's inspirational, motivational, real and artistically masterful not just in terms of vocal delivery where Chriz outshines his competition by adopting spontaneous flows that remain consistent with his laid-back demeanor, but also production-wise, delivering a solid sound that makes an impact with every beat. 

In December, 2016, at the pinnacle of his underground music career, he took his sound to the next level when he released, "Change", and he has since started moving from dominating in underground hip hop to gaining recognition amongst mainstream music fans and artists as well.

His latest single, "Perfect" was released today on iTunes, Apple Music, Spotify and other digital music retail stores.

We've heard it time and time again, and even been told by our loved ones on several occasions but the importance of being one's self and staying true to one's roots can sometimes be better taught by example.

After a series of hit records and mixtapes, and invaluable years honing his talent and making connections through collaborations with both popular and not so popular artists and producers in Mississippi and surrounding areas, while performing at local venues where possible, Coolidge was able to cement his name in the minds of real underground hip hop fans who have followed his every move ever since with singles like "Can I Have Your Number", "Only Speaking Y.O.L.O" and several other records that stood out for their uniqueness and organic mass appeal.

Having enjoyed immense attention underground, Coolidge released his official debut album, "Esodrevo" in 2015. It featured 7 top of the line hip hop masterpieces that struck a cause in hip hop fans far and wide and drew a lot of attention from top industry insiders and labels who have followed closely ever since. Shortly afterwards, he took his career to the next level by taking his music back to his hometown in Bermuda where he released his first internationally released record, "Bermuda" with Sony Music Bermuda. He also toured briefly in Bermuda at the time, and then returned again in May this year for another tour. 

After several chart-topping releases this year including "Rockets", "Passport" and his latest single, "Decimals", Coolidge has finally announced the release date for his hightly anticipated mixtape.

Afton Prater at the Olalla Americana Music Festival 2017 - Tickets and dates

In the short 3 years spanning Afton Prater's astonishing independent music career so far, the award-winning singer, songwriter and role mode who began her journey as a teenager has already brought immense joy and reassurance to Washington's country music scene and is spreading it across the US progressively with every new release. 

Afton's organic and pure approach to the genre is bringing it back to life in ways popular acts like Taylor Swift have failed. Although all music tends to have a little Pop added nowadays for flavor, Afton seems to understand the importance of staying true to the origins of country music both in terms of its musical elements and lyrical content, and she doesn't stray very far while still managing to deliver a very upbeat sound. 

Right from her very first EP, "Stay With Me", which was released in December, 2014, Afton has been recognised and commended by top players in the industry and been watched closely. She has also received her fair share of attention from the press, radio and television, both online and offline.

She has performed at countless venues in and around Washington as well as featured at many of Washington's top music events and festivals, and  she continues to gig regularly, spreading the warm, organic cheer of real country music wherever it is needed and appreciated. 

Over the course of her career, she has had a good number successful singles that remain on the lips of fans as the years pass, including "Stay With Me" which featured on her debut EP, Forever With You - also from her debut EP,  "I Want A Truck" and more recently, "Old Soul" and "Hey Country Boy", just to name a few.

Her latest single, "Wild Fire" was released on the 4th of March. 

She recently confirmed amongst other upcoming live dates that she'll be performing at the Olalla Americana Music Festival in August, the best small-town country festival celebrating Americana Music - blues, bluegrass, country, folk, jazz and the roots, and highlighting some of the best artists and bands of the Pacific Northwest region of the US.

EVERY SUPERHERO'S DREAM

Music news update | New music by Canadian singer songwriter and performer, Tara Kye. Listen free on iTunes and top music apps.


For many superhumans, fighting crime, defeating notorious adversaries that just keep coming back, protecting the innocent and asserting full dominance over their territories is always top of the agenda. But aside from the sense of purpose and fulfilment, and the rush that results from achieving their goals there's only one thing that could top the satisfaction of victory, and that's having a kick ass theme song to kick some ass to in the heat of the moment.

Canadian rock singer, Tara Kye recently unveiled her latest work of art, "Shera", a song centered around a superheroine who is queen of the jungle. Following in the footsteps of many of Tara's previous singles, it is empowering and motivational. According to Tara, who has now been professionally recording and releasing music independently for just over a year or two, it was the first song she ever wrote and it was written with the help of close friends.

Shera was officially released on the 6th of June and is available to stream and download on Spotify, iTunes, Apple Music, and other top music stores and independent music outlets worldwide.
