“Elephant In The Room”

Fresh off getting dropped from Def Jam Records, GOOD Music artist CyHi the Prynce did not mince words with his latest release. CyHi has been signed to GOOD Music for five years and the label has not released any of his music. In that same time span CyHi has released seven mixtapes and countless music videos, all using his own money. Feeling passed over and ignored, CyHi finally let the world know how he feels by way of a diss song primarily aimed at GOOD Music’s head Kanye West. This is raw emotion at its best. The Cage the Elephant sample works so well here.

New Tunes From Elephant

Elephant-006UK based Elephant is a band that we posted about in the past and we’ve been anxiously awaiting to hear more from them.  Today I’ve found another track from the band called “Elusive Youth” that is yet another atmospheric pop gem from the band.  I love the playful nature of the track as we dance through the tune mesmerized by the enchanting vocals of leading lady Amelia Rivas.  Enjoy it with me.

New album, Sky Swimming, is coming out on April 28th via Memphis Industries.

Smooth Pop from Elephant

elephantThere was a time in my life when ethereal pop was my forte, and occasionally I’ll go back and dabble in it from time to time.  Listening to this new single from Elephant provides me with that perfect opportunity, using this floating bit of song construction to back the powerful vocals of Amelia Rivas.  Given that we’re all coming back to our appreciation of R&B influenced vocals, this UK group fits right into our cyclical musical world.  The single below is from their forthcoming debut, which will see a release in the near future by Memphis Industries.  We’ll keep you posted, but for now you can sit back and absorb this special number.
