Nomi Sutton Releases “R E C O V E R E D +” EP
R&B artist Nomi Sutton released her highly anticipated first EP titled “R E C O V E R E D +.” Listen to what Nomi had to say about her new project here!
Up and coming R&B artist Nomi Sutton released her highly anticipated first EP titled “R E C O V E R E D +.” Nomi Sutton is a rising singer out of Texas who is beginning to come into her own. We asked Nomi a few questions about her new EP, check it out below!
Question: What was your inspiration for the title of this project?
The inspiration behind this product was my walk towards finding myself. When I first started writing music I was going through a rough time in life and just recently I find myself recovered from a lot of my circumstances. “R E C O V E R E D +” is all about a time period where I found healing within many aspects of myself.
Question: What do you want people to gather from listening to your EP?
Nomi: I want people to really catch the feelings within my songs. Whether it’s my song “Fair Warning” which is a warning for those who step a foot into one’s life or “Tonight” which is completely contradicting that and represents someone who is willing to let someone in because a good night is needed. I just want people to relate and be able to jam out.
Question: What do you feel is a song that people MUST listen to on this project?
Nomi: MUST listen to “Tonight.” It might be my favorite song on the EP. This song just makes me want to get up and dance and I’ve never felt that way personally about one of my songs. So this particular song was the first challenge at an upbeat song for me and I’m very proud of the final product.
Question: How did you generate ideas for the songs on this EP?
Nomi: With this being my first project, I typically would listen to a series of beats over and over till I could identify the vibe that the beat was giving me. Once I identify the vibe, I just try my best to make sure that the central message is communicated clearly to my listeners.
Question: Is there anything else you want people to know about your music and this EP?
Nomi: That I am already working on the second project and I am very excited to release my first project because this is my first EP ever!!! I have a lot of different vibes on this project so I’m sure one could relate and jam out to one of the songs! I’m very excited to be fully committed to music now and the thought of making more music is exciting for me. Make sure to stay tuned!

The Best Summer Anthems Of 2018 | 9 Songs That You Need in Your Playlist
We’re giving you a list of the some of the 9 best summer anthems of 2018! See if your favorite song the cut here!
By: James Teague
For some reason the vibes for Summer 2018 were different and I couldn’t put my finger on why. Maybe the current climate of our lives is playing a role. All that I can say is that the season is almost over and we don’t truly have an anthem to define our Summer this year. There’s usually a song that’s already been decided by the masses already. There's some songs you can say that fell into that Summer 18 category and after careful living and observation, I’ve picked out a couple of songs that can be nominated as the best summer anthems 2018. You can be the judge and decide which song is considered to be the anthem of Summer 18.
Ella Mai - Boo’d Up
This song was originally on Ella Mai’s Ready EP which was released last year. But somehow it resurfaced this year and created a life of its own. I appreciate the “Trust the process” story. Ella Mai is deserving of all this attention she’s getting. Everybody loves it especially the guys.

Drake - Nice for What
It’s not Summer without Drake giving us an anthem to enjoy amongst the current time of our lives. From the song to the visual, you can tell this was dedicated more to the women out there working hard and looking good simultaneously. He made it clear for the women that this was the summer to start acting up and letting the men know what time it was.

YG - Big Bank
Everybody loves a rachet west coast style single from YG alongside DJ Mustard on the production boards. It felt good to hear Mustard & YG linking back up again for Stay Dangerous. You can't help but do your dance when “My b*tch drive an all white range/ Couldn't hit if you n*ggas had aim..” first comes on.
YG - Big Bank ft. 2 Chainz, Big Sean, Nicki Minaj (Official Music Video)
Jay Rock - WIN
This isn’t just a song, it’s a life mantra that the people strive to live for in life! This was the perfect song to officially kick off Jay Rock’s run with Redemption, which happens to be one of top rap albums so far in 2018. Once again the TDE brand remains strong.

Tory Lanez ft Rich The Kid - Talk to Me
I was having a tough time trying to choose between BID and Talk to Me but the chorus alone for Talk to Me is so catchy that it just rolls off of your tongue with ease. Tory is planning to drop a new project Love Me Now right after releasing his Sophomore Effort Memories Don’t Die.

Drake - In My Feelings
When I first heard this record on the night Scorpion released, I already knew this was going to be a smash single! Between the New Orleans influence and Drake giving City Girls a huge look, it had all of the ingredients for a successful moment. And it all kicked off when IG comedian Shiggy started the “In My Feelings” challenge.

Khalid ft Ty Dolla Sign & 6lack - On the Way
The visual and vibe of this song gave me 90s vibes with a twist. It’s always great to hear feel good R&B records that you just automatically know is going to stand the test of time especially when hearing great young R&B acts. Ty Dolla is currently on his run with some of the best guest features in 2018 so far! Meanwhile everyone is anticipating 6lack’s next album release at any moment.

Valee ft Jeremih - Womp Womp
The rising stardom of Chicago rapper Valee has been a trajectory to watch this year from his debut EP GOOD Job, You Found Me to watching other rappers try and imitate his rap flow. This is one of the records that helps highlight who Valee is as an up and coming artist. I'm looking forward to hearing his next project with Cardo Got Wangz to see where he’s going to go next with his music.

Tyga ft Offset - Taste
With all of the constant slander and jokes that the masses have made towards rapper Tyga, we forget about his ability to keep a hit record under his belt. At first I wasn’t sure what to think about the reactions to the song, but after listening and living with this song, I was sold. Between that, his other record Swish, and his new LA Leakers Freestyle, I’m liking what he’s doing with his music and hope he continues this streak of great music.

“This is real feel hip hop! Honestly that trap music, autotune mumble rap bullshit don’t come out my mouth.”
There aren't many rappers out there that make music that stays true to themselves and retain their own creativity throughout their music, but this is one of those artists who keeps it real in every song! Real rap is still alive, and this west coast artist is making sure that people understand what that is! Lijah Turner is severely underrated but his talents won't be hidden for long. Turner brings raw content to his lyrics and makes music for fans who can truly appreciate his authenticity.
Check out his music below!
5. WAASIKeso
“I would describe our music as real and relatable because we are vulnerable with things such as relationships, depression, our personality and what we think. One song might feel like a nighttime ride by yourself, the next might feel like a summer day drive to the get some food with the homies. We try to capture different with every song.”
WAASIKeso is the modern day Eric B and Rakim. This duo out of Florida is exactly what hip hop needs. The duo of WAASIShade and WAASIKeso compliment each other perfectly and they will not be a secret for too much longer. Running through their playlist, it's hard to find a song that makes you want to press skip. Real hip hop, real lyrics, and real authenticity is what this duo brings to the table and the flow in which they deliver their content is unmatched.

The U.K. has bevy of talented artists, and this singer out of London is another product of a growing hip hop presence in England! Laolu puts her truths in her music, and brings realness to each song. This artist has a voice that will have you sit down and play all of her music on repeat. Laolu has openly talked about battling through depression and her own personal battle has sparked creativity in her music, and this is definitely music that many people can relate to.

“Knowing that I can do everything through Christ gives me a faith that constantly motivates me to keep pushing towards my passion. My mom is also someone who told me from the beginning to pursue my passion for singing.
