With I LOVE YOU just kidding, released on October 20, 2025, B-STOP delivers a subtle yet emotionally layered hip-hop track built on contradiction and restraint. The phrase “I love you” is immediately undercut by “just kidding,” framing a song that explores emotional hesitation, irony, and self-protection. It reflects a modern emotional landscape where sincerity is often masked by humor or understatement.

The production is clean and understated, allowing B-STOP’s delivery to remain the focal point. His flow is controlled and intentional, drawing strength from timing and tone rather than force. There is a calm confidence throughout the performance, paired with a deliberate emotional distance that makes the track feel authentic rather than exaggerated.

Born on January 17, 1979, B-STOP is a Japanese hip-hop musician, talent, and radio personality from Yokohama. Active since 1998, he has remained a consistent and influential presence in Japan’s underground hip-hop culture. Over more than two decades, he has built a career defined by independence and adaptability, balancing a long-standing solo path with collaborative work as part of FRANKEN & B-STOP.

That depth of experience is clearly reflected in I LOVE YOU just kidding. Rather than relying on dramatic hooks or overt emotional peaks, the track draws its impact from nuance and relatability. B-STOP consciously avoids genre clichés, leaning instead toward a universal hip-hop sensibility that feels unbound by borders or trends.

The single also highlights his evolving relationship with melody and accessibility. Once cautious of pop-influenced hip-hop, B-STOP now embraces its ability to communicate emotion clearly without compromising integrity. The result is a track that feels smooth, memorable, and quietly powerful.

Adding to its growing momentum, I LOVE YOU just kidding is now playing on the Hollywood FM playlist and has been selected as a special daily Powerplay at 12:30 PM Pacific USA time for the next month, giving the release strong rotation and introducing B-STOP’s latest work to a wider international audience.

After decades rooted firmly in the underground, B-STOP continues to move on his own terms. I LOVE YOU just kidding stands as a concise, self-aware release that captures emotional ambiguity with confidence, proving once again that subtlety can be one of his greatest strengths.

Independent songwriter JCCutter returns with “Tequila at Dawn,” an uptempo, warm country-rock anthem that bursts out of the speakers with the scale and confidence of a blockbuster movie soundtrack. Big, melodic, catchy, and unmistakably anthemic, the track delivers a high-impact production packed with driving guitar riffs, a Top-40 radio sensibility, and sharp, memorable lyrics.

Now added to our A-List Playlist, “Tequila at Dawn” will also receive special spotlight rotation as a COUNTRY ROCK POWERPLAY at 7 PM Pacific USA time for the next month.

Hailing from New Mexico, USA, JCCutter crafts a song built for singalongs, late-night crowds, and repeat plays. Clocking in at approximately 3 minutes and 30 seconds, the track sits perfectly within radio programming and editorial playlists, maintaining strong momentum while allowing the storytelling to shine.

At the heart of the song is its instantly memorable chorus — framed as a tongue-in-cheek “morning prayer” — designed to invite participation rather than passive listening. Lyrically, “Tequila at Dawn” taps into familiar cultural touchstones of tequila, regret, humor, and shared experience, striking a balance between wit and authenticity without slipping into parody. The imagery is vivid, relatable, and tailor-made for bar-country, party environments, and late-night soundtracks.

Sonically, the track blends Americana textures with a rock backbone, pairing country storytelling with a modern, radio-ready edge. The production is clean, powerful, and built for longevity, with a chorus that rewards repeat listens, playlist saves, and sustained rotation.

While much of JCCutter’s broader catalog explores themes of resilience, faith, and endurance shaped by years of global travel and lived experience, “Tequila at Dawn” highlights another side of his artistry — one rooted in fun, togetherness, and music that meets people exactly where they are.

From a programming and curation perspective, the single checks all the right boxes:

• Immediate hook with a call-and-response chorus
• Relatable theme with broad demographic appeal
• Clear genre positioning (Country-Rock / Americana / Bar Country)
• Professional broadcast-ready master quality

Well-suited for:

• Country, Americana, and Alt-Country/Rock rotations
• Weekend and drive-time radio programming
• Bar, party, tailgate, road-trip, and late-night playlists

Now featured on the A-List Playlist, the song will also be played as a special POWERPLAY at 8:30 PM Pacific USA time for the next 2 months, marking it as a standout moment for listeners drawn to classic songwriting and glowing production.

Built around a rich, vintage-inspired atmosphere, “Latch on My Heart” carries a soft 60s meets 70s sheen, complete with gentle flutes, glowing textures, and beautifully balanced chord progressions. There is a subtle echo of Nico-era Velvet Underground in the tone and mood, yet the track confidently inhabits its own world. Claire-Mae’s sweet, expressive vocal delivery gives the song its emotional center, especially in the tender refrain, “You are the one I love,” which lands with sincerity and warmth.

The production leans into a golden-era pop sensibility reminiscent of The Mamas and The Papas, when lush arrangements and heartfelt melodies defined the sound of a generation. That full, comforting sound feels newly relevant again here, making “Latch on My Heart” a touching and uplifting listen, particularly well suited to the reflective warmth of the Christmas season.

Claire-Mae is an American-Argentinian singer from Buenos Aires who chose to remain unidentified at the time of recording due to concurrent work on an EP release. As a result, the pseudonymous artist name Claire-Mae was adopted for this project, allowing the music itself to take center stage.

Popping synth textures recall Yazoo or Pet Shop Boys, wrapped in glossy European pop production that feels both nostalgic and modern. Vas Michael’s smooth and recognisable vocal draws the listener into a warm atmosphere of airy pads and melodic arpeggios. The track plays like a romantic vignette set in a futuristic world, a synth pop poem with the cinematic glow of a Never Ending Story style moment.

British Armenian songwriter and visionary creator Richard Simonian steps forward with a deeply moving new single titled Somewhere in the Heavens. The track carries an emotional weight that immediately reaches the listener, built around beautiful piano lines, warm atmospheric pads, and a massive uplifting chorus shaped by rich gospel inspired vocals. The performance is tender, melodic, and full of goose bump moments that transmit real human feeling, love, loss, and the fragile beauty of life.

Somewhere in the Heavens serves as a song of remembrance. Released during the Christmas season, it reflects the soft ache that arrives when memories of loved ones feel strongest. Simonian captures the sensation of speaking to those who have passed, honouring their presence, and keeping their light alive. The blend of emotional vocals and cinematic instrumentation creates a universal portrait of missing someone during the holidays. The song offers comfort and hope by reminding listeners that love continues in ways that reach beyond the physical world.

Simonian has built a reputation as a storyteller who writes with emotional depth and spiritual reflection. Drawing on Armenian ancestry, lived experience, and a deep connection to memory, he creates music that speaks to loss, love, identity, and the unseen threads that bind people together. His recent rise on radio and streaming platforms reflects how strongly listeners connect with his sincere approach to songwriting. Somewhere in the Heavens arrives at a time when many listeners will feel its message in a very personal way.

His second new single, This Love Is My Homeland (Ays Ser Im Yerkire), takes a powerful step into heritage and cultural truth. The track opens with guitar and vocals that set a warm rhythmic scene before drums lift the rhythm into a bouncy pop infused flow. Melodic vocals carry a chorus that feels worldly and heartfelt with traditional influences woven throughout the arrangement. The result is a song that feels organic, folky, sweet, and anchored in the sound of community and togetherness.

This Love Is My Homeland (Ays Ser Im Yerkire) stands as a musical testimony to the people of Artsakh, known internationally as Nagorno Karabakh. Simonian uses the song to highlight the quiet and systematic erasure faced by Armenians in the region. While the subject matter is serious, the music remains uplifting and warm, carrying its message through soulful melodies, storytelling lyrics, and expressive instrumentation. It is both a lament and a call for justice that shines light on history through the human spirit of music.

The single is the flagship piece from Simonian’s Artsakh album and represents the emotional core of the project. It speaks to the loss of ancestral homeland and the painful reality of a world that looked away while displacement took place. Simonian crafted the song with a melodic and accessible sound, ensuring that its message could reach listeners outside the Armenian community and resonate with a wider audience.

Both Somewhere in the Heavens and This Love Is My Homeland are now featured as a special double powerplay at 12:30 PM Pacific USA time for the next month and appear on the A List World Playlist. These two works reveal an artist with a powerful voice, a message that matters, and a gift for turning human experience into captivating music.

Mikey G’s new single Champagne Poetry opens with a mellow, cinematic atmosphere that feels eerie and haunting, almost like a film score. A warm R&B tone sets the mood before thick, phat kick drums and hard-hitting beats take over, pushing the track into a compelling rap performance. His flow is smooth, distinctive, and grounded in authenticity, telling a story with a sober and serious edge. The production is sleek, silky, and immersive, taking listeners on a laid-back yet emotionally upfront journey.

The track is now featured on the A-List playlist and will run as a special POWERPLAY at 8:30 PM Pacific USA time for the next month.

Emerging from Brisbane’s urban hip-hop landscape, Mikey G (Michael Alenaddaf) represents a journey shaped by resilience and reinvention. His path began with childhood recognition on Australian Idol Kids, followed by a decade away from the spotlight, and later a grassroots comeback fuelled by social media. His artistry blends golden-era rap influences with Brisbane’s shifting cultural identity. With recent singles such as Buckwild and Don’t You Love The Light gaining attention, alongside collaborations with producers including Eestbound and Beau Vallis, Mikey G is positioning himself as a fresh force within Queensland’s hip-hop scene. His upcoming project highlights community, multicultural identity, wellness, and creative evolution.

Mikey G’s work connects Brisbane’s suburban realism with global hip-hop sensibilities. His lyrics explore themes of self-discovery, ambition, and mental health advocacy. His flow often reflects the introspective clarity of J. Cole and the melodic smoothness of Jack Harlow. Visually, his brand merges Brisbane’s river-city scenery with gritty urban textures, creating a contrast that mirrors the duality in his identity.

His early exposure on Australian Idol Kids in 2004, performing In Da Club, introduced him to national audiences. A voluntary retreat from mainstream attention allowed him to immerse himself in Brisbane’s underground rap community, study lyricism through artists like Lupe Fiasco, and participate in cyphers around South Bank Parklands.

The #4barfriday challenge on Instagram reignited his artistic drive, with freestyle videos filmed in locations such as Fortitude Valley’s Bakery Lane gaining viral momentum. His early collaboration with Eestbound on the 2017 release River City Tapes formed the foundation of his jazz-rap fusion style.

His studio debut, The Soul Section EP (2020), engineered by Sage Audio and co-produced by Beau Vallis, showcased neo-soul grooves intertwined with introspective narratives, receiving rotation on 4ZZZ FM. Recent singles Buckwild (2023) and Don’t You Love The Light (2024) display his evolving trap-influenced production without sacrificing lyrical depth. New releases Payroll and Exhausted (2025) further mark the rise toward his next major project, Sight Seeing.

Greo’s new single ‘Wa Do Ghe’ arrives with a funky, vibrant backing rhythm and a strong vocal flow that feels poetic, fluid, and effortlessly in time. Distinctive and unique, the track gets you moving and gets you grooving before he even begins to sing. When he does, his voice cuts through with a sweet, warm melody layered over great beats and a sound that flows with life. t’s a fresh, energised blend of contemporary hip-hop and afrobeats, bursting with character, rhythm, and movement.

Wa Do Ghe has now been added to the A-List Playlist and will be played as a SPECIAL POWERPLAY at 7 PM Pacific USA time for the next month, amplifying its presence across the airwaves.

Following the momentum of London Times Freestyle, Benin City–born rapper Greo returns with Wa Do Ghe, an intense, street-wise anthem layered with sharp lyricism, Edo-language proverbs, and vivid storytelling. Translating to “Come See” in Edo, the track invites listeners to witness the duality of survival both in the streets of Benin and the fast-paced grind of London.

Built on a raw, percussive beat and delivered with Greo’s signature mix of introspection and grit, Wa Do Ghe dives into the realities of youth violence, economic pressure, and the thin line between resilience and vulnerability.

In the opening verse, Greo paints a vivid portrait of his upbringing:

“Benin born and Benin bred
If you no know my name, then it’s okay for you to call me chair…
Some relatives fell for the street life but flee like parasites when war emerges.”

He weaves Edo proverbs into stark observations, grounding the song in ancestral wisdom:

“Wa do ghe vbe n’oye vbe edian — Come see how it is here
Akhwin Igho vbo — Money comes fast and goes fast.”

These warnings remind young men to move wisely, stay grounded, and avoid cycles that claim too many lives. The haunting refrain drives home the weight of responsibility:

“Your mother isn’t here for you to cry to…
Your father isn’t here for you to cry to.”

It’s a message of accountability—survival in the streets demands self-reliance.

The second verse shifts continents, capturing Greo’s experience in London and the reality of life as a migrant navigating new pressures. He raps:

“Didn’t trade Nairas for tourist sites…
From Enfield to Camden, doing runs like cricket batsmen.”

Here, Benin’s lessons merge with London’s hustle, highlighting the cultural dislocation, ambition, and high stakes of starting over in a foreign city. Lines like:

“Got a foreign flu in my chest
Too sick to wait for NHS”

Every bar blends humour with realism, showcasing Greo’s ability to tell hard truths through sharp imagery and wit. His storytelling bridges two worlds, offering a voice that is both grounded in home and shaped by migration.

Wa Do Ghe is the second release leading into the upcoming Benin 2 London EP, a conceptual project documenting the migrant journey from the streets of Benin to the complexities of life in the UK. Where London Times leaned into introspection, Wa Do Ghe brings intensity, ancestral memory, and street philosophy.

Greo is a Nigerian rapper and storyteller whose journey began in Benin City in 2008. Emerging during Nigeria’s blog era with his acclaimed project Oral Tradition, he blends Edo cultural elements with polished lyricism and modern hip-hop sensibilities. After a hiatus to pursue data and technology, he returned in 2025 with a renewed, matured sound exploring migration, survival, and identity across continents.

Los Angeles, CA GRAMMY® nominated composer Zain Effendi has been officially recognized for Best Instrumental Composition for his breathtaking work “Opening”, created for Disney’s reimagined EPCOT Test Track attraction. The piece marks a major moment in modern orchestral storytelling. It blends cinematic emotion, futuristic sound design, and Disney’s timeless sense of wonder.

Effendi’s journey to this achievement has been remarkable. Trained at The Boston Conservatory and Berklee College of Music, he began his career under the mentorship of Hans Zimmer, contributing to blockbuster scores such as The Dark Knight, Pirates of the Caribbean, Kung Fu Panda, and The Holiday. His early years at Remote Control Productions shaped his ability to turn story into sound and emotion into movement.

“Opening” brings that experience into a new creative frontier. The composition is a symphonic electronic epic created with Walt Disney Imagineering for the redesigned Test Track experience. The work redefines theme park music. It is powerful yet intimate, futuristic yet timeless, filled with the spirit of innovation and the heart of exploration. Guests are taken on an immersive journey through melody, rhythm, and texture that mirrors the anticipation and excitement of the attraction.

“Silence isn’t the absence of sound,” Effendi says. “It is the canvas that gives it meaning.” This idea guides the heart of “Opening”. The score rises from stillness into a breathtaking crescendo, echoing acceleration, discovery, and awe. It captures not only the thrill of speed but the beauty of motion and imagination coming together.

The GRAMMY® nomination adds to a distinguished and growing body of work. Effendi has scored projects for Disney, Sony, Warner Brothers, and Bad Robot. His accolades include Best New Composer at the Hollywood Music and Media Awards, an HMMA win for Best Live Concert over Jennifer Lopez, two Telly Awards, and multiple World Entertainment Awards. His music has defined experiences inside Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, Disney’s Starcruiser Hotel, Shanghai Disneyland’s Adventure in Rhythm, and major Disney concert productions. His compositions have also topped the iTunes Charts, Amazon Charts, and the Official Walt Disney World Playlist.

Beyond his studio work, Zain Effendi has built a unique sound admired throughout the modern symphonic and cinematic world. His career bridges Hollywood blockbusters, innovative theme park scoring, award winning concerts, and creative work that pushes the possibilities of orchestral music. He is also a producer and DJ recognized for boundary breaking shows and genre blending performances.

With “Opening”, Zain Effendi has delivered more than a theme park score. He has created an emotional blueprint for the future of Disney storytelling. It is not simply music for a ride. It is music for the imagination, merging artistry, innovation, and heart.

Industry critics have praised him, stating, “Zain Effendi does not chase spectacle. He sculpts emotion.” With this prestigious GRAMMY® nomination, the world now recognizes a composer whose vision continues to shape the evolution of cinematic and experiential music.

It will also be featured as a special Daily Powerplay at 9:30 AM Pacific USA time for the next month.

The single opens with a single guitar riff that feels instantly classic, then swings into a warm, jangly alternative sound reminiscent of Velvet Underground‘s rolling 60s and 70s guitar tones. A deep vocal enters, chilled yet powerful and slightly unhinged in the most original way, with a subtle nod to Lou Reed. The track stands strongly on its own, well-written with a pop sensibility blended with a raw, free-spirited hippy energy and a modern new-era vibe. It is serious yet deeply melodic and irresistible, driven by jangly guitars, subtle distant brass and string textures, and a human, organic band feel that sparks a sense of freedom in the listener.

Emerging artist Will Percs released his debut album Fund My Beach Style on Wednesday, July 17, 2025. The album offers a playful, sun-soaked collection of tracks with a carefree beach atmosphere.

Speaking about the album, Will shared, “I was just having fun with music and this is what happened. Be great if someone hears it and enjoys it.”

MATD return with Johanna Koskiniemi on the explosive and anthemic rock single “Angels of Rock”, a high-energy track built for stadiums. The song bursts with progressive synth transitions, screeching and chugging guitars, soaring melodic vocals, and a fierce blend of 80s hair rock, goth attitude, and modern European stadium rock. It has the feel of a major rock movie soundtrack and brings the spirit of a European rock revival into 2025.

“Angels of Rock” has been added to the ROCK A-List and will also air as a special ROCK POWERPLAY at 10:30 AM Pacific USA time every day for the next month, marking the return of big, glamorous, alternative rock energy.

When the “angels of rock” arrive, they bring light, power, attitude, and an unstoppable melodic force.

The Making of “Angels of Rock”

The song first took shape in December 2024, when Finnish duo MATD sent a demo titled Hell Has Lousy Songs to singer Johanna Koskiniemi. The demo immediately made an impact. Under the direction of producer Sammy Roiha at Sound Ateljee Studio, the track evolved into an explosive, full-throttle rock anthem.

The collaboration showcases MATD’s refined musicianship and Johanna’s powerful vocal delivery. Although it began as Johanna’s first venture into hard rock singing, the performance soon became bold, emotional, and commanding. Packed with massive guitars, pounding drums, and soaring melodic lines, “Angels of Rock” was designed for arenas rather than kitchen radios.

The track was submitted to Finland’s Eurovision Song Contest selection, standing as one of MATD’s most daring releases yet. It combines melodic intensity with a message of resilience: even in “hell” the notes go wrong, and the world needs light, unity, and joy more than ever.

Johanna says, “In dark times, you have to spread light and joy.”

About Johanna Koskiniemi

Johanna Koskiniemi is a former music teacher turned dynamic rock performer. She has studied piano, saxophone, trumpet, and voice, and has appeared in vocal competitions and theatrical productions across Finland and internationally. Her voice blends technical precision with emotional power, giving “Angels of Rock” both strength and heart.

Their breakout success included “Me and My Dog” featuring Tom Bedlam. During their Max and the Ducks era, they achieved nine songs on Finland’s official download charts. Their track “Who the F** Is Alice” was once Finland’s most downloaded song of the week, and “This Bond Is Tight” reached number two and was shortlisted for Switzerland’s Eurovision selection in 2015.

Playlist

Catch this hot new rocker every day and night on the A-List Rock Playlist + as a special ROCK POWERPLAY at 4:30 PM Pacific USA time daily at for the next month.

In an era of rented hype and filtered fame, The Goldy lockS Band continues to prove that craft beats cash when a vision won’t quit. The band behind the fan-fueled “Only Talent” movement and the culture-jolting “Buy the Record Not the Bod” campaign returns with a new single, “Textbook,” a hook-loaded rocker that calls out narcissism with wit, bite, and a wink. True to form, the group is doubling down on its DIY DNA—building stage sets from scratch, hand-making costumes out of scraps and recycled materials, and inviting a local school to co-create a classroom-set music video that fuses the pep of Van Halen’s “Hot for Teacher,” the iconic pop punch of Britney Spears’ “…Baby One More Time,” and the quirky charm of Napoleon Dynamite.

The Song: A “Textbook” Case of Narcissism—Set to a Big, Satisfying Chorus

“Textbook” was sparked by a too-familiar scenario: a friend’s narcissistic husband who can’t stop orbiting his favorite topic—himself. Whether it’s dinners that turn into monologues or moments that somehow always circle back to his “stardom,” the behavior is, well… textbook. The track flips frustration into catharsis—sharp lyricism, crunchy guitars, and a chorus that lands like a mic drop. It’s the soundtrack for anyone who’s ever rolled their eyes at the predictable grandstanding of the self-obsessed.

Goldy: “We’ve all met the person who sucks the oxygen out of the room. Textbook is the permission slip to laugh, call it what it is, and move on.”

Rod: I’ve never had a song speak to me so intimately and flow so freely during the writing process. Every piece of the song flowed without hesitation or complications

Johnny: Textbook is a Groove built together during a rehearsal. it’s a fun song with a great melodic movement.

The Ethos: DIY or Die (with Style)

Long before it was trendy, The Goldy lockS Band built its world by hand. But for Goldy, this started decades ago in a place where stars were born: Prince’s Paisley Park. As a teen seamstress, she designed and sewed clothes and stage costumes for Prince himself and a roster of his developmental acts—boy bands, singers, and rising performers.

That early crash course in couture-for-the-stage became the backbone of her creative career. Goldy soon took those skills into another world of spectacle: professional wrestling. She became the go-to creator of bold, theatrical entrance wear for WWE, WCW, and TNA superstars, ensuring wrestlers hit the ramp looking like legends.

Today, those same hands still cut and stitch—but now the needle and thread are for her own family of performers. Goldy designs and sews all the Goldy lockS Band’s costumes from thrifted fabrics and recycled scraps, transforming cast-off materials into couture-level stagewear. Her work sits proudly in the lineage of today’s most visionary pop costumers—think Benson Boone’s sleek looks or Chapel Roan’s daring theatricality—but with an even grittier, handmade edge.

And it’s not just wardrobe.

• Sets: fabricated from lumber, pallets, paint, and found materials—engineered to tour, transform, and surprise.
  
• Props & FX: clever, practical builds (think: rain rigs, custom signage, mash-ups of hardware-store hacks and showbiz tricks).
  

It’s not just resourcefulness—it’s proof of concept for the band’s thesis: If the talent is real, the work will stand.

Goldy: “DIY isn’t a budget—it’s a belief. When we say ‘Only Talent,’ we mean that the art leads and everything else follows.”

The Campaigns: “Only Talent” and “Buy the Record Not the Bod”

The band’s two flagship messages are simple and disruptive:

• Only Talent: Celebrate craft over clout, skill over spectacle.
  
• Buy the Record Not the Bod: Stop rewarding clicks on bodies and start paying artists for music.
  

And it’s not just talk:

• Over 220 magazines, blogs, and outlets have covered the Only Talent movement, making it a bona fide viral story.
  
• To hammer home the message, Goldy and drummer Rod Saylor appeared nude—covered only in strategically placed CDs. It was a tongue-in-cheek parody of OnlyFans, designed to shock people into the truth: support physical goods, not just endless streaming.
  
• The nudity was never about titillation—it was about confrontation. It spotlights the troubling statistic that 15% of young women ages 15–20 believe OnlyFans is “the future.” Even more alarming, girls as young as 10 in countries like Spain already see it as glamorous and aspirational, instead of pursuing education, work, or a vocation.
  

The band’s stance is unapologetic: buy the art, don’t sell your body. Support music as a craft, not as clickbait.

Goldy: “If you love what we do, buy the record. That’s the difference between artists surviving and artists thriving.”

The journey concludes with “Tomorrow,” a song that ties the project together with hope and vision.

The History of Kirz

Kirz has steadily built a reputation as a versatile artist whose talents, sound, and lyrics bridge the worlds of Afro-pop, Reggae, and Dancehall. With his soulful voice and distinctive delivery, he fuses modern Afrobeat with rich African influences, creating music that reflects both his aspirations and lived experiences.

Born Macdonald Chidozie Okeke into a family of eight, Kirz spent his early years in Imo State, Nigeria, before his family relocated to Lagos in search of greater opportunities. The move exposed him to the energy, resilience, and diversity of city life, instilling in him the humility and drive that would shape his musical journey. Surrounded by a variety of sounds, from movie soundtracks to different genres of music, Kirz honed his craft as a songwriter, backup vocalist, and recording engineer while working in several studios.

His career breakthrough came in 2017 when he won the Docdeff Beat Killer Contest, a milestone that opened doors to performing at concerts and festivals across Lagos. Despite the challenges of one of the world’s most competitive cities, he remained focused on his goal of becoming an internationally recognized Afro/Dancehall artist.

Kirz began collaborating with producers and artists from Jamaica, Haiti, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Grenada, and the United States. His first major single, Bad Condition, gained traction and built anticipation for future projects. In 2018, he followed with Pray for Me and Far Away, songs that resonated with fans and expanded his global reach.

The year 2019 saw the release of Freedom, produced by Jahboot, known for his work with dancehall icon Popcaan, as well as Party Boy, produced by Blacka Kartel, a producer closely associated with Vybez Kartel.

On August 29, 2025, Australian artist Zorin Morris released his latest single No More Tears, marking another chapter in his journey of crafting irresistible indie-pop anthems. Known for his sweet, melodic sound that blends pop sensibility with a hint of nostalgia, Morris continues to captivate listeners with music that echoes the charm of The Lightning Seeds, the spirit of Elbow, and the melodic hooks reminiscent of Pet Shop Boys.

No More Tears bursts with indie flair and anthemic energy, painting the playful spark of a boy-meets-girl moment in a bustling bar while poking fun at life’s everyday stresses. Within seconds, its groove hooks the listener, thanks to a lively production recorded in Los Angeles under the expert guidance of producer Chris Falson. The track has also earned a coveted spot on the A-List Playlist for the next month and will spin daily as a Pop Powerplay at 7 PM PM Pacific USA time, bringing its infectious energy to an even wider audience.

Alongside the single comes the reflective B-side Holding Your Hand, which offers an introspective contrast and highlights Morris’s versatility as both a songwriter and performer.

Morris’s music transcends rigid genre boundaries, weaving together what he sees, feels, and observes in the world around him. “I take the best of the old and the best of the new and give you something inspiring and relevant,” he explains. His influences are less tied to specific artists than to the creative freedom of writing across genres, making his sound as varied as it is vibrant.

Since making his mark in November 2023, Morris has racked up over 21000 Spotify fans monthly with more than 700,000 Spotify streams, building a loyal global fan base. His career momentum continues to grow with the launch of a full band and an upcoming live show in Singapore on August 31, 2025, where he will perform a 20-song set including No More Tears, Holding Your Hand, and 10 unreleased tracks.

With storytelling at the core of his craft and a sound that draws from influences like The Cars and Elbow, Zorin Morris is positioning himself as one of indie pop’s most exciting and unpredictable sweet voices.

Joseph H Dean returns with another anthemic rock hit that showcases his unmistakable style and passion. Love What Is Happening To Me is a sing-along warm rock gem that highlights Dean’s charismatic storytelling, powerful voice, and exquisite guitar playing. The track builds with chunky riffs, classic solos, and a vocal delivery full of attitude and emotion. It carries the listener through a meandering journey that erupts into a soaring guitar screech before settling into a driving rhythm. The song’s texture brings together shades of Tom Petty, Black Sabbath, and Creedence Clearwater Revival, mixed with an edge of early Adam and the Ants. While it begins as a heartfelt chugging rock song, by the end it evolves into a sing-along arena rock anthem that compels listeners to move.

The new single has now been added to the A-List Rock Playlist, where it will spin night and day, and it has also been chosen as a special ROCK POWERPLAY at 9:30 AM Pacific USA time to air daily for the next month.

His success also includes six simultaneous placements on Spotify’s Release Radar. His mantra, “The love can’t control ya,” rings out as both a lyric and a statement of intent.

Behind this momentum lies a deeply personal inspiration. After losing his wife to cancer, Dean found unexpected solace in the music of Lady Gaga, crediting her songs for helping him through his darkest moments. He explains that hearing her voice gives him peace, even if only briefly, and that this emotional connection has fueled his own music. It is this authenticity that resonates with listeners, making his rock sound both raw and uplifting.

Joseph H Dean continues to prove that real human music can still captivate audiences around the world. His message is spreading fast and the anticipation for what comes next is stronger than ever.
