24-year-old New York-based reggae/dancehall/R&B artist Kranium just dropped his brand new single “No Odda” .
Born Kemar Donaldson in Montego Bay, Jamaica, Kranium has an amazing ability to create music on the fly, and “No Odda” is no exception.

I’m taking guidance from the right people. I’m here to work and I’m happy to have a platform like Atlantic Records to push it further. I’m here to stay not just to come and go.

Still budding after the success founded in his debut track, “High Like This,” Kevin George recently released his newest single, “My Crew”. In his own words, “With My Crew, I wanted to create the soundtrack to the party for me & the kids from my city. Anything Goes at a party in CT”. Not only did he achieve this with the creativity and killer beats, but also with his innovative lyrics and loops.
If this new single wasn’t enough to get excited about this upcoming artist, then the announcement of the bigger picture is. Recently, it was published that “My Crew” is just the beginning of a much bigger project. In fact, this new single is a small piece of upcoming project LOVELAND, which gives all of his fans something to look forward to from this newcomer. Not only does George have a unique vocal ability, but his true talent is arguably found in his ability to produce skittering tracks that have since become a signature part of his sound and music profile. Now that Kevin George has released this second single, there is nothing stopping him from becoming a force to be reckoned with in the music industry.

After forming together at a high school party, alternative pop band The Unlikely Candidates went on to release three Eps and have since spent countless hours on the road in order to chase after a dream that started so many years ago. While on the road, they had several opportunities to work along-side some of the most well-known names and faces in the industry from Sublime With Rome to Fallout Boy.
Most recently, however, they have released a new lyric video for their single “Oh My Dear Lord,” and are featured on the Dirty Heads’ new song titled, “Celebrate,” which is currently in the Top 25 at Alternative Radio. Clearly, the five members of this band have been hard at work to get their name recognized in the general music community. Clearly, their hard work is paying off in their widespread popularity. This new release has over 17 million combined streams-a number that is sure to continue to climb in the future. One of the most recognizable attributes of this band’s music is their ability to add a certain “grit,” to their pop overtones which allows for a larger fan demographic.
Keep up with the band here.

Green Druid is set to release their album
Ashen Blood via Earache records on
March 16th. When checking out the song “Pale Blood Sky”, brace yourself for some serious doom metal that is polished off with a hypnotic psychedelic, “just roll with it” vibe as the track comes to a close at the 9 minute and 25-second mark. (Wait, can you do that in metal?) I mean a lot of progressive metal has songs around the 10-minute mark, so does Opeth, but Green Druid isn’t some technically overpowering cram a million different directions in one track kinda band.
Maybe it’s the snow and being cooped up, maybe its the video games, or maybe they have found that perfect groove and successfully managed to draw it out. Typically doom or stoner metal just drones over and over until it all seems like a blurry mess. With Green Druid, the music alone surrounds you in the journey of your own mind that is like the imagination, limitless. While they definitely fit the roster of Earache with classics like Godflesh, Napalm Death, and Carcass, Green Druid is hands down a breed all their own and I’m sure the future will see them noted as pioneering a new frontier for metal.
If you are in the Denver metro area be sure to check them out at their CD Release March 23rd at Hi-Dive and pick up Ashen Blood on Vinyl or CD. If ya can’t wait you can pre-order the hard copy via the band’s Bandcamp page and you get 1 track now and a digital copy the second it is released March 16th.
