Artist Promotion

Today we meet the ladies of Yo! Majesty as they get ready for their upcoming album set to be released in August 2020. The ladies just dropped “FLEX” earlier this year on GMEQCA/Matriarch Records.

About Yo! Majesty

A short bio about Shunda K and Jwl B provided by their agents:

“In the mid-2000s heyday of MySpace, Yo! Majesty rose quickly to digital fame in America (they played both Coachella and South by Southwest) and abroad (they signed to U.K. label Domino Records, now home to Arctic Monkeys, Hot Chip and Animal Collective). The frenetic electro-pulse and raw carnality of their 2008 debut Futuristically Speaking…Never Be Afraid felt fresh and inspired at the time (and in many ways still does today).

The New York Times profiled Yo! Majesty alongside Santigold and Kid Sister; NME hailed them as one of America’s best new acts; Spin wrote them up multiple times. Most profiles mentioned a few well-trod talking points: They were lesbians, they rapped explicitly about sex and more broadly about God, and their live shows were wild affairs that occasionally saw Jwl stripping off her top.

Now, with the upcoming release of YO! MAJESTY’s sophomore EP “Return Of The Matriarch”, they will be sure to capture the rest of the world… Mature lyrics and realness is what we know Yo! Majesty for and best believe they keep it real… “Too real”, says Shunda K. The EP will be an independent release and available for download and exclusive physical copies will be sold on the group’s upcoming world tour.”

Thoughts on FLEX

The song is surprising. The ladies are melodic with their delivery but still kill the rap. They have masterful lyricism and high energy. They are up with current pop culture which is always a plus for those new hip hop listeners.

The video has an old school, “low budget”effect which is different than the current trends. It gives for a more relatable and down to earth vibe. It is vibrant and fun, showcasing the ladies talent and just having fun with the craft.

This week we talk about the various ways to network in the industry. Stay tuned for a potential part two.

Today we head back over to Vegas for the song Party Favors which is said to be the new summer anthem (if we can even go anywhere during the summer).

The song and artists are brought to us by the Slaps on Deck production team. They are originally from San Diego, CA but are currently based in Las Vegas. The team was founded in 2017 by Notch P and Fashow and focuses on West Coast talent.

Party Favors Review

Song Title: Party Favors Artists Names: Daygo Matt, Slim 400, Paper Chaser

The song is a bit rough around the edges. The artist on the first verse just needs to work on his breathing and delivery. Second verse I would work on the inflection of the voice. Verse three the artist seems the most well prepared. As far as production value the beat is well put together and is set up to be a summer vibe. The lyrical content also aligns with the themes of partying and summer vibes. Take a listen for yourself and let me know your thoughts by checking the song out here: Spotify Youtube

Today we head on over to Montreal, Canada for Rapper, Producer and Singer Bamis. He finds his musical inspiration from artists such as Drake, Kendrick Lamar and Kanye West, to “prodige” Travis Scott and Canadian sensation Tory Lanez . Bamis is backed by “WeWill Productions, a label focused on shining the light on English and French Rap and R-n-B. They are quickly establishing themselves as the go to label for versatile Canadian artists.
