Scene by Scene: Shah Brielle’s Cinematic Sound in “Issues”

Posted on 19 September 2024

Shah Brielle injected filmic sophistication into the sphere of contemporary RnB with her latest single, Issues. With echoes of Latin guitars interwoven into the lush production, the Chicago singer-songwriter orchestrated a vignette which mirrors the tremulous journey through love’s intricate labyrinth. Her powerfully crystalline harmonies resound as a beacon through the fog of emotional turmoil, articulating the push and pull of a love that’s as intoxicating as it is flawed.

The track unfurls like a cinematic narrative, each lyric threading deeper into the listener’s consciousness, much like waiting for a film’s climax with bated breath. With lyrics such as “Will I continue to swim through the flood to find your flame?” she encapsulates the desperation and determination of clinging to a flickering hope in love. This emotional odyssey is paralleled visually in a gripping music video that portrays a groom’s resolve as his wedding day unfolds with unexpected trials, prompting viewers to question the resilience of love.

After breaking onto the Chicago music scene in 2013, Shah Brielle has amassed a loyal following with her syntheses of world-music-heightened RnB and soul, which reflects her adoration for icons like Lauryn Hill and Erykah Badu.

So it won’t suffer unless it’s physical: Tankee M wonders why we spoil the pure air on Cactus won’t puke its water

Posted on 8 May 2023

Steering us more in-depth within the mindset of the world and all the wasted resources, Tankee M sends shivers down the spine of millions with one of the most real singles possible called Cactus won’t puke its water.

Tankee M is a mysterious multi-talented rapper and artist who makes the kind of tracks which are raw to the core and unearth important issues for us to learn from.

”Foreing rapper trying to get new sounds. Currently using music ’cause every misspronounce might sound acceptable if poetic. Learnt how to produce in case the voice might sound really incomprehensible.” ~ Tankee M

Sizzling all fans with a blistering performance, Tankee M is rather fiery here and has dropped a lyrically aware single which contains wordplay which is rather elite.

Cactus won’t puke its water from the underground rapper Tankee M is an electric performance which will shock many and impress others. Sending our souls into a whirlwind and never holding back even for a second, this is a simply earth-shattering track which might get the day started in the right way.

Turn this up louder on Spotify.
