"Another Perspective" album by Amen BK

'Ask the question and you will learn the lesson' – for Tunisian-born rapper and songwriter Amen Ben Koussa, these words are more than simply lyrics to a song; they are words to actively and wholeheartedly live by. Listening to his recent debut-album Another Perspective, his apparent intention to constantly search for new and creative ways to answer the questions posed is made abundantly clear. Luckily for us, the album's appeal doesn't stop there; not only does it present an opportunity for contemplation in audible form, but it convincingly manages to do so whilst at the same time maintaining its overall function as a very pleasurable listening experience.

Of course, it is one thing to be able to rap well, but being able to truly say something is another thing altogether. Perhaps one of the most rigorous tests of lyrical quality is the question whether the words themselves continue to effectively portray their message once they have been stripped down to their bare essentials. It is in this sense, perhaps, that the artistry involved in Another Perspective becomes clearest of all; though it is evident that the artist is able to skillfully use the medium of rap to convey his message, it would seem like he may be just as appropriately described as being a poet first and foremost. As such, his lyrical worth –as is often the case- may well lie in the unique and unfamiliar descriptions of various universal themes and concepts. In Unfair Trials, for example, the listener is urged to resist that all too familiar tendency towards adopting a narrow and embittered outlook on life, and is stimulated to resist it by 'setting the view on panorama' instead. Interestingly, and in this case specifically, the album's recurring theme of tackling various different perspectives is dealt with in both the literal and figurative senses – two very different ways of approaching any given concept – proving that Amen BK has very much taken to heart the age-old wisdom of 'practicing what you preach'.

Though the lyrics themselves might just as well have functioned as an excellent spoken-word performance, they have without a doubt been further enriched by the vast array of sounds present throughout the album. With an eye on the wide plethora of influences that have made their way into the project, including the use of Flamenco, Jazz, Reggae, Rock, Opera, Classical, Blues and Soul-orientated instrumentals, it would have been all too easy for the album to have unintentionally become an unguided missile of sorts. The attentive listener, however, is likely to conclude that in fact, nothing seems to be farther from the truth; upon listening to the album, it gradually becomes more and more clear that nowhere has this broad pallet of influences been incorporated simply for diversity's sake. Instead, the taken approach seems to have been the only possible way of doing justice to the vast amount of different topics and themes covered in its forty-five minutes of running time. This beautifully appropriate synergy between music and lyrics is perhaps nowhere more evident than in 'El Baile De La Vida' (The Dance Of Life), which almost instantly invokes the vivid Spanish imagery consistent with the influences that it so strongly draws upon.

Much of the album's apparent cohesion may be attributed to the consistent usage of a central, 'conscious' theme. Though it takes on various different forms throughout -dealing with issues of social justice, politics and spirituality to name a few- the aforementioned theme nonetheless functions as the album's main reference point. The way that these topics are approached, however, ensures that the album is never caught lingering in its confrontation with injustice; by putting a positive spin on many strongly contested issues, it seemingly successfully promotes conscious thinking without ever becoming cynical in its nature.

Another Perspective might thus be described as being somewhat of a two-headed monster; a musical effort that is consistent in its method whilst maintaining its diversity at the same time. The overarching feeling one takes away from it, and perhaps from Amen BK's work in general, is that we're dealing with a man who might well be described as being an artist in every sense of the word; though his music is suitably geared towards being a pleasurable listening experience, the vast array of words and ideas presented throughout feel more like baring witness to some kind of interior monologue. In many ways, it is perhaps reminiscent of our own conflicting understandings of the complex world around us. Almost without exception, the mark of all great artists has arguably always been their ability to communicate the questions and conflicts imposed on them by their reflective nature, and consequently, their inability to go through life without doing exactly that. Though it is perhaps early days, Koussa's work seems to exhibit many indicators of such a notion. Even though Another Perspective quite convincingly demonstrates that there is no such thing as an absolute truth, it would seem like madness to deny the musical and lyrical potential on display here - whichever way you choose to look at it.

Inches From Sin "Bridgewater Triangle"

By Dana Saravia – Life-long rock & roller, current music critic and Girl From Baltimore | Steel Notes Magazine

Inches From Sin first got my attention last summer with their song "Laid My Heart Out". The song's blend of Americana and R&B combined with strong vocal harmonies stood out as unique and natural. Their album "Bridgewater Triangle" builds on that foundation as the band fuses genres and styles into a sound all their own.

"See You Again" is the album's opener. A mid-tempo song of post-breakup heartache, it's a fine introduction to the layered instrumentation and rich vocal harmonies to be found throughout the set. The second song, "Murder", features a near disco sound backing a strong vocal melody. This number also showcases the gorgeous harmonizing of singers Robert Brewer and Karen Holloway as well as allows each to shine individually by trading lead on the verses. The next song, "Out Of Reach", pairs a faster paced rock sound with socially aware lyrics regarding the media's fanning the flames of racism to incite fear while urging listeners to look past that and work together for a better world. "Move On" adds a pleasant mid 70s radio rock sound to lyrics about moving on to a new life from the ashes of heartbreak. "Hold On" is a slower, acoustic song that has a bit of a campfire feel to it with encouraging lyrics about relying on friends to get through life's tougher times. Karen Holloway sings lead on "Weight Of The World". A lovely song with a bluegrass bent and lyrics such as "Fighting all the rich man's wars" and "Breaks my heart/Breaks my back/All the weight of the world/Keeps coming back" that aptly describe the heaviness of realizing that people continue to allow petty differences to divide them instead of pulling together to create a better society. A strong message in a gentle song, both of the moment and timeless in both music and lyrics. "Laid My Heart Out" , a down-home, folk rock number about finding the bravery to be vulnerable and open with deeper feelings, is next. It also spotlights the band's fantastic vocal harmonies, as does "Be Good To Yourself" which immediately follows. The rougher edged "Suffering" is next. Though it doesn't quite gel as neatly as the other songs here, the ambition and willingness to push boundaries and blend varied musical styles the band shows is refreshing. "This Ring", the song that follows, shows the band at their experimental and original best. Robert Brewer sings lead on this bluesy folk rock blend with richly detailed lyrics about being emotionally, though not physically, unfaithful. The line "This ring burns a hole in my finger tonight" is sung with a depth of feeling and longing and helps make this song one of the best of the album. "Hit It One Time" starts out as a song with an alternative rock feel, unexpectedly grabs a stronger beat, then adds a slick, sexy rap to become something that wouldn't be out of place in a club or on modern urban radio. "Come Get Me" continues the hip hop feel and combines rapped verses with a sung chorus. With lyrics like "I've been waiting/Been waiting for you", this is a memorable and moving song about a father who longs to reconnect with his faraway child who has always remained close in his heart and mind. Strong rock guitar opens "14 Daughters", the edgiest song of this album. With its water and storm imagery and lyrics that refer to karma and nature, the music and lyrics create a strong blend that's reminiscent of Hendrix. A daring track that hits the mark and leaves a memorable impression. "I've Seen Better Days" pairs an acoustic alternative sound with lyrics about reconnecting with an old friend and finding emotional support in that bond. A sweet song and an appropriate way to close out this album.

Inches From Sin have a true gift for vocal harmony, as well as a unique sound and style that set them apart. "Bridgewater Triangle" showcases these elements throughout the album and even on the songs that don't quite gel, their passion and willingness to experiment shine through and mark them as a talented band to keep an eye on. Inches From Sin are bold, distinctive and unafraid to blaze their own musical path—it will be exciting to see where that journey takes them next.

Cali Cvsh Is Truly A Genius On CAtCH ME If YOU CAn (EP)

"desire gave me fuel, i rose like jets. kinda like a jet pack, how i maneuver through the ruins. man im bout to do it BIG, born again through this music"

This EP (CAtCH ME IF YOU CAN ) by Cali Cvsh, has an abundance of gems on every record. Catch me if you Can is the 2nd installment of his EP trilogy series. This body of work represents a resilient and rebellious spirit, with the will to want more and to fight for it. Cali Cvsh unveils a new flow on the lead record "lots of paper", yet again show casing a menacing ability to captivate the hearts of the listeners; with lines like "I'm a do my best, I'm gon' make progress, I won't let no one stop me" the record is also displaying an unparalleled wit, like we haven't heard since the blue print by HOV. after the explosion which is the lead track, we ease into easily the standout song "thoughts materialized" the focus is obviously on growth, He pinpoints moments of clarity while reminiscing on advice. the unorthodox style and approach on the self produced beat, has an Erie feel. We can hear his early RZA and 4thDisciple influence.

The 3rd record "wen she looking back" sounds like Cali Cvsh traveled back in time to the NEPTUNES era and came back with a retro-futuristic banger. the hook is an attempt to reach a wider audience, but the lyrics are raw enough to keep the core listeners engaged. following that performance, We are welcomed on a journey via the mind of a criminal. On "tryina make enough" just like the title suggests, we can here schemes and plots boiling throughout the song. accompanied with a menacing hook and thought provoking content Cali Cvsh questions why some choose to imitate rather than innovate. Getting into "rolling it up" it is evident that the boy boy was extremely high while telling us this story (lol). its a fun record about reacting to rejection while encouraging self-admiration. the comedic aspect of this recording is showcasing a fearless versatile Cali Cvsh. the final record on #CAtCHMeifYOUCAN is a no nonsense, all or nothing theme song titled "aint worried". Boasting a progressive flow, cali advances the notion that even his haters love him. In closing, catch me if you can proves to be a key addition to his entire COLLECtION and as "aint worried" suggests, the anticipation for the ALTERNAtE ENDING is intolerable.

Ice T, Too Short, Yo Yo And Kurupt Support Havoc Da MouthPiece's Proclaim To "Go Hard" It's "Gaim Chng3r" Time

Los Angeles - Straight outta' South Central Los Angeles, Havoc Da MouthPiece hails as one the true originators of West Coast gangsta' hip hop! Real hip hop hard heads recall Havoc as a standout pioneer, spearheading the West Coast reign when he was the front man for the rap crew South Central Cartel aka SCC. The group were the first 'left' coast rappers to sign to Def Jam and nurtured a loyal cult following with hits like "U Gotta Deal Wit Dis," "Pops Was a Rolla," "All Day Everyday," "Eastside-Westside" and "It's an S.C.C Thang."

Ironically, Havoc, a Chicago native, also has roots nestled deep in the legacy of R&B as well. Havoc is not only a rap legend, but he is also the son of legend. His father, Robert "Squirrel" Lester was one of the founding members of the legendary soul group the Chi-Lites.

Considering the depth of his musical roots coupled with his passion, there is probably no one better positioned to revive the West Coast rap scene by not only recapturing its history, but also continuing its vintage sound. Under the banner of his new imprint, Gaim Chng3r Enterprizes, Havoc is steadfastly forging a new legacy in hip hop. For the past two years he has been documenting historic interviews with major artists who were in the game from the very beginning. Over 30 artists have been interviewed to date, including Ice-T, Too Short, Warren G, Kurupt, Yo Yo, Da Brat, Ms. Toi, Xzibit and Lighter Shade of Brown. The footage will be revealed in his new film,"Go Hard: The True Untold Story of West Coast Hip Hip," slated for release in 2016 and the soundtrack, featuring several of Gaim Chng3r's newly signed acts, is available now!

Havoc has masterminded a diverse assembly of artists for the Gaim Chng3r roster, all reflecting his hardcore sentiments about the wild, wild west. The "Go Hard" soundtrack is fully loaded with thirteen rough and ride 'em tracks that sizzle with scorching West Coast heat.

Female vocalist Neveah regulates the seduction with "Boom," Chanel Royale rips the heat on "187 Murder," and Drewp featuring J. Blue keeps it real South Central with their own cartel on "Talkin' Money" and break down the politics of green. Tiffani Lewis' "Pain," featuring Cali Pitts, is a street litany that flows R&B with a hardcore rap edge and D.K.F.C.'s "It's Over" bounces like a low rider with pure ghetto heat. Jank Mobb spits real, raw and unapologetically ruthless on "Sum_Mo_Sh*t," leaving Shoota Mac featuring J. Blue to take it to the bedroom with "Private Affair" and new super producer Big E regulates with impact on "Wat I'm On."

"South Central Cartel helped to carve the landscape of the West Coast rap scene. We were right alongside artists like N.W.A. and Tupac back in the day, giving the world a peak into this Cali street life," notes Havoc.

"I've been true to this music for three decades now, different incarnations, but always true to the game. With 'Go Hard: The True Untold Story of West Coast Hip Hip,' I am not only honoring and celebrating this west side journey, I am positioning it for a greater outreach into the future. Gaim Chng3r is the new face of West Coast rap and the rebel cry is 'Go Hard' because we can't go home, this is home! The movie 'Straight Outta' Compton' was only a small part of the story, but it proved that the world remembers and that they want more! "Go Hard" is taking it back to the streets South Central style. We bringing Watts, the Bay, Sacramento and the entire coast along for this ride!"

Another single, most likely the last for 2015, "Multiply" will be released right after the New Year. The video for "Multiply" has been completed and will be released immediately following the single release.

MusicDishTV Review: Watzreal Music Video "Tell Me"

Watzreal's newest single "Tell Me" is a heartfelt and soulful take on hip hop music. In his song, Watzreal gives an outpouring of emotion as he begs and pleads to be told why love is not actually like it is in the media and movies. He shows anger and sadness about how the media deceive us into believing relationships easy and straightforward.

Through his heart ache, he wants the listener to know that love consists of many struggles. He does this well through the anguish shown everywhere on his face. When performing on stage in parts of his music video, he also shows the physical pain caused by heartbreaks. Again, heartaches that are not shown in the movies.

The casting in the video works well for Waltzreal's message. The female lead in the argumentative and complicated relationship is attractive and sweet looking, similar to the types of girls in the films Waltzreal sings about. However, unlike rom-com movie couples, this tells how love isn't so easy.

The video clip also moves nicely and fluidly between scenes creating a strong and streamlined message. It moves from Waltzreal singing on stage, to his anguished and troubled state as he sits alone at a bar. It then shows his reflective side as he looks out onto the water. And then of course, most effectively showing a couple in difficult real life situations. Not quite like the unrealistic love in our most adored romantic films.

In no way does the video ever look forced or preachy. Instead, Waltzreal delivers a powerful message about love. A message you really can see through his desperation to find answers on why love is so falsely depicted.

Moonshine Bandits Announce Headlining Tour With Angels Cut & Pruno

Central California outlaws The Moonshine Bandits are about to get back out on the road and raising some hell on their headlining tour with Angels Cut and California rapper Pruno throughout October and the rest of the year. The Moonshine Bandits continue to tour in support of their new album "Blacked Out", which debuted inside the Top 15 on Billboard's Country Albums chart at #13, cracked the Billboard Top 200, and simultaneously debuted in the top 10 on the Rap Chart.

"We are stoked to be bringing our artist Pruno to rock these shows because the Shiner Nation loves his music! We are also bringing Angel's cut who is a hot up & coming Northern California rock band that has a badass chick lead singer," commented Tex. "These upcoming stops on the tour are always big crowds full of energy so we expect it to be loud and rowdy, just how we love it."

Long before people figured out that country and rap had a lot in common, the Moonshine Bandits released their genre-blending album, "Whiskey & Women," and took the world of outlaw music by storm. The group's blue-collar work ethic and unwavering persistence has led to over 19 million views on the ShinerTV YouTube channel – collectively over 30 million views on YouTube - while their video for "My Kind of Country" peaked at #1 on CMT Pure. Connecting with fans on all levels, Moonshine Bandits have built a solid "Shiner Nation" of loyal fans, developed their own brand of Shiner Barbeque Seasoning, Beef Jerky and legal Moonshine.

"Blacked Out" is the most adventurous MSB album ever. With its crunchy guitar riffs and southern rock swagger, "Blacked Out" is a soundtrack to the real lives of Bird and Tex. Their friendship was forged in all-night keg parties deep in the country; their music grew from what they'd experienced together as restless young men who refuse to apologize for their patriotism, who value family and freedom and above all who feel the calling to celebrate those many Americans who share their beliefs.

After putting out two underground mixtapes Advocate wanted to start his record label and contribute to the art form of hip hop with a lasting tribute through business and himself as an artist which advocate established his label may of 2013. In 2015 Advocate put out his first hit single "Movie" and ready to launch his first LP called 'The Right To Be Hostile' where Advocate is expressing the frustration of the world as a young adult in his 20's and personal conflict that he has to conquer also dealing with the outside forces of his environment.

Produced by Tyquein k.e.c.o Wright, Advocate talks about his new single, "My thoughts on writing the track "Movie" was coming from a different angle of the club perspective more from the guy/girl who wants to have fun with their friends in their own section of the club, have you ever been to the club and saw a person in VIP that no one knows? Well I came off that aspect and experience because wanted to write from the point of view of someone who works hard wants to get to the point with the female or a women wants to get to the point with the guy vice versa."

Advocate continues, "Want people to turn up and have fun. I actually capture the person who gets over looked in the club and he actuals comes out on top of the night. VIP section isn't the only section that turns up and has fun so I encourage people to create their own section were their peers and friends can have fun. I also tired of hearing wack DJs play list same old material, copying other DJs, so I touch on that as well in the song. I also wanted to capture a style of smooth but slick talking and my personality mixed with swagger and appeal." From his forthcoming album, ADVOCATE is an artist on the rise & is ready to prove his worth in the music & entertainment industry.

Antonio "A&R" Richardson releases Let Life Be Like Music

Antonio "A&R" Richardson has not released new music in over two years, leading some to assume that he had given up on hip-hop. However, in a time when artists turn out single after single and albums are scarce, Richardson has been devoted to his craft working on a complete album. For the past three years Richardson has been working on all aspects of his music, from the production to the writing, he poured his soul into his music. This past week Richardson quietly released his project the to world.

This summer Richardson struck inspiration and everything fell into place. "Even though I've been quietly working on this album for a while, the majority of the songs were completed this summer, " says Richardson, "I made tons of songs, but nothing felt complete, and then the past few months everything just came together on it's own."

"Let Life Be Like Music is a very detailed collection of my life for the past couple of years. This was an extreme therapy session, as I've been going through a lot personally," Richardson recalls, "This album was a way for me to endure it all and stay positive." Richardson touches on the very real struggles facing society today with this new album. The album explores racism, gay marriage, religion, homelessness, happiness, fatherhood, relationships, working towards goals, and hope for the people in a very straightforward manner. The songs are meant to start conversations, because Richardson believes our struggles cannot be resolved without conversation and understanding. Richardson hopes his lyrics will bring perspective so we can move to a place of understanding and resolve some of the issues we face in the world today. "Music is a universal language so this is the best way to start the conversation," Richardson says.

Let Life Be Like Music is available for streaming and download on iTunes, Google Play, Spotify, and Tidal.
