ATX Spotlight: Magna Carda

Given, I don’t often talk about hip-hop, mostly because I’m not entirely sold by the modern fare, but I’ve always appreciated Austin’s Magna Carda. I’ve always admired Megz vocal delivery; it’s so casual yet has this flow to it that makes it roll off every little beat. They’re supported by Ava Raiin on this number, adding a soulful R&B polish to the the number; I’m actually drawn into the atmospheric samples floating through the background. As of now, the band’s wrapping up their new album, but this number shows so much promise it’s hard not to imagine the group blowing up bigger than they hoped!
