DC Releases New Track, “Tears Sweat Blood”

DC is a rising rapper from the UK, that is really making noise in today’s world. He has an incredibly catchy flow in all of his tracks, and has a unique sound than many UK artists. His most recent track is known as, “Tears Sweat Blood”

 DC says; TSB, is a song that’s inspired by the overall grind and being on the end. Regardless of what goes on in our lives we still gotta keep focused on our goals and put everything into whatever we want to do. This ones another reflective one for me as I talk on some of the moments and situations I’ve been in and the effects it has had one “In the field all day but still man pray cos my soul needs healing, still tryna ghost these demons” The video builds on the creative elements me and LX introduced in Neighborhood where fans were able to catch onto the double meaning from that Neighborhood, like The Wire and orange couch reference. In TSB I really wanted to represent the elements of our community that are quite damaged and the positives that are still come from there by performing behind broken glass.” 

As we listened to the track we were very impressed with the lyricism of DC, as we found ourselves repeating certain lines throughout the song. He says, “Don’t call me your bestie when you don’t call me or text me,” and other very memorable rhymes throughout the track. The production started with a very catchy piano melody which drops into some bouncy percussion. Check out the track below.

Pauline Jean Puts Out Inspiring Video for, “Ain’t I A Woman”

Beloved jazz world artist Pauline Jean releases her newest single “Ain’t I A Woman (Singing Truth)” on the 55th anniversary of the Voting Rights Act, a law signed to end racial discrimination in voting. Paired ahead of another milestone, marking the 100-year anniversary of the ratification of the 19th amendment, Pauline Jean’s new video reminds the world of the continued fight for women’s rights. Her ode to activist Sojourner Truth highlights the dominant narrative about the women’s suffrage movement framed through the experiences of white women. What history leaves out is the fact that many African American women played a part in attaining the right to vote even though many of them would not experience the right themselves until decades later.

In her captivating new music video, Pauline Jean sings Sojourner Truths words “Ain’t I A Woman?”, referring to the racial prejudices that have contributed to Black women’s invisibility for centuries. Elegantly, the video features ballet and modern dance to pair with the grace of soft keys and Pauline’s heartfelt vocals. Singing “Ain’t I a woman? Look at me. Look at my soul, I have lived and learned. You can’t silence me.” The male and female dancer offers an undoubtable synergy, almost appearing as one. The male dancer is representative of the Black man uplifting the Black woman, and in doing so, they rise together. Images of white men flash across the screen as a reminder of oppression stemmed from hateful religious convictions. Eventually joined by a diverse group of women, Pauline emphasizes the struggles of all women to collectively helping one another to continue the fight for equal rights.
