Marcus Darc Hurts 'Em Bad With "Hail Mary" Tupac Rap Challenge

With the 20th anniversary of Tupac's passing being acknowledged throughout the hip hop community, former Death Row artist, multi-platinum songwriter, producer and R&B stunner, Marcus Darc has added his video release to the growing number of contenders in the "Hail Mary Tupac Rap Challenge."

Lending his trademark 'X-plicit' twist to the mix, Marcus goes 'Darc' in the video release and calls out the women of "Love and Hip Hop," most specifically Moniece Slaughter from "Love and Hip Hop: Hollywood," inviting her to 'cum' with him. Lyricist Smovee Smoov layers the solid production with his unique rap fire.

Darc's latest R&B offering "Twisted," on Lucky Entertainment is in part produced by super producer Hurt M Badd. Hurt M Badd and Darc have been writing and producing since their days together in the group B-Rezell on Death Row Records, when the two were label mates with Tupac. Badd produced Tupac's "Makaveli" album and is often acknowledged for his work on Pac's singles "Hail Mary," "Me & My Girlfriend" and "Just Like Daddy," from the classic CD.

Darc's single for "The Greatest," from the "Twisted" project, is currently in heavy digital radio rotation and unabashedly boasts his steamy sexual prowess, as he stirs passion and heat with tales of his magic stick. The even steamier video for the single is slated to drop soon.

'Ecstatic Rhythms 2 EP' Is Splitbrain's 2nd Release

Listen: https://soundcloud.com/splitbrainmusic/sets/ecstatic-rhythms-2-ep

Splitbrain remains devoted to his signature Acid Tribal musical style but this time enhanced with ethno-melodic elements. As always Rhythm Ecstasy is the main focus of Splitbrain's music.

Drums & percussion remain in the foreground. All other melodic elements whether acoustic or electronic are subordinated to the rhythmic climax.

The EP opens with 'Shakti's Dance' which is Splitbrain's most melodic track to date.The main melody played by the Iranian-Indian santoor instrument gives this track it's unique character.

'Treebal Mystical' has all of Splitbrain's rhythmic ecstasy elements enhanced by the unique & mesmerizing Slovenian overtone flute - the fujara.

'Warriors Funk' is the fastest & probably the most energetic track in this EP. It opens up with Splitbrain's signature warrior drums building up towards the entrance up of the main acid part.

The last part of the track is enhanced by the Scottish bagpipe melody which builds up the final warriors climax.All the warriors are now dancing in ecstasy !

Project-TO - The White Side, The Black Side

Recorded in the Interactive Sound studies in Turin, Italy, property of Riccardo Mazza, the debut album by Project-TO was realized with the aim of live set, a real audio-visual experience where the songs of the white side, electronic/big beat-style, alternate with techno ambient/dark atmospheres of the black tracks. Within the work, the listener can find the influences of forerunners of this kind of sound like Chemical Brothers, DeadMau5, Crystal Method, Ancient Methods, Not Waving, Apparat and Andy Stott.

Powerful and unceasing rhythms characterize the white tunes, often layered and combined with electronic sounds and percussions/drumming recorded in studio. A very synthetic sound due to an important use of analogical and digital synths. Black songs are the "photographic negatives", more bitstream, of the white songs; every black is an interpretation of its corresponding white, where a more techno/dark arrangement changed deeply sounds and drafting, mantaining the same exact length.

Paths interweave symbolically with voices and sounds that sometimes recall universal symbols like in "Sign of the Earth", where Tibetan monks songs appear, or "Look Further", with a theme signed by Gregorian chants, or "I-Hope", characterized by an opening speech of Indian Parliament by Indira Gandhi and followed by comment 揑 Hope� of Hillary Clinton; images are bounded to our territory to underline our roots and our culture.

Double LP was indeed produced together with the original visual project that is part of the whole plan. Six videostories representing the six white moments, or rather a dreamlike travel of the two protagonists, that live different experiences and meet only occasionally and fleetingly. During the live set the voyage evolves with darker and more abstract visual atmospheres, sustaining black tracks. A video project in part inspired by the record Further by Chemical Brothers (2010), composed by eight songs accompanied by as many corresponding clips.

The shots are original, made in the studio and on location. Animations, video clips, characters in silhouette and abstract geometric textures, generated with appropriate physical models simulation softwares, are the characteristics of the production. The show is performed entirely live with mapping projections on the surface of the place hosting the event: walls, ceilings, furnishings or exterior facades. An immersive experience that transforms the space, where electronic music becomes part of a contemporary artistic language more evolved and experimental, while retaining the characteristics of a dance and trendy event.

Although extremely new, Project-TO has already executed high profile performances like Opening Party of Artissima in Turin, Italy (November 2015), the opening night of Torino City of Design (December 2015) and Fuorisalone in apartment Lago in Brera for Milano Design Week (April 2016).

Viral Artist Bryson Morris Considered To Be The Next MattyB Of Hip Hop

Bryson Morris, a 14-year-old rapper from Poplar Bluff, Missouri, has solidified his breakthrough into the rap scene by releasing a music video for his first official song.

The artist brings a high level of energy to the dark, brooding instrumental, which incorporates eerie church bells and orchestra hits. The ominous atmosphere of his music is sharply contrasted by the squeaky-clean vocal production; his voice cuts into the darkness like a beam of light.

While the snare drum and hi-hat arrangements aren't much different from today's conventional rap, they don't need to be: Bryson Morris performs over the track with a professional amount of confidence and infectious energy.

The rapper's lyrics discuss his flamboyant lifestyle, a topic common among contemporary artists in the industry. The video's affluent location parallels his lyrics about designer clothing and lavish jewelry. It is exceedingly difficult to take something that has been spoken about so many times and make it unique, but Bryson Morris seems to have no problem accomplishing this task. His tight lyrical flow and delivery are a testament to the time he commits to perfecting his sound.

Bryson's Morris's #LOUISGUCCI has received several 5-star ratings, with one reviewer calling it "the hottest new song" they've heard from an upcoming artist, and multiple others encouraging Bryson to continue his passion and keep making music.

Bryson Morris's #LOUISGUCCI music video has accrued over 100,000 views in under a week. His fan base is continually expanding and brimming with positive reception to his music. The artist's fans have shared that they are excited to follow along on his music journey and see where it takes him.

YouTube Influencer, Rhino, published his review of the #LOUISGUCCI music video and had nothing but positive vibes to give being quoted as the next MattyB of hip hop; Watch the full review, click here: https://youtu.be/xYydyvflyxQ

Bryson Morris began expressing his creative talent through music as early as age 11. Around this time, he independently engaged in research about the hip-hop scene and began formulating ideas to launch his career as an artist. As he honed his craft, he began to share his music with his classmates and followers on his social media accounts. When he was in seventh grade, one of his videos garnered over 28 million views, an outstanding number even by the highest industry standards.

Bryson Morris's new website includes an online store where fans are able to buy hip hop clothing, which he anticipates will help him connect with fans as well as other artists. He plans to continue putting a lot of effort into his social media in order to share his sound with his listeners.
