Spanish (@Oh_Spanish) – Clueless

536014873Ohio Rapper, Spanish, is an artist who brings an entirely different, yet relatable perspective to the rap game. Growing up in the small town of Marion, Spanish was forced to use his imagination to create a sound to drown out the deafening tone of many doubters and naysayers. Motivational hooks, inspiring lyrics, and humble melodies are all distributed across Spanish’s body of work. His most recent release “Clueless”, inspired by the 1995 Movie, features 8 tracks in which Spanish uses his versatility as a artist to form a smooth and edgy mix-tape that places listeners in his mind.

Jason Asher aka Prophet (@jasonasher09) – “The Evidence”

This is the first hit song off Jason Asher aka Prophet’s Brooklyn Memories album which was released by Tidal Discovery in 2015. After the release, it immediately became the top streamed song from the album. Two years waiting, but Jason Asher has finally included a video for the song. It is a photo slide video who’s images are potent and match the lyrics and message of the song. The message is apt for the times, as many people are searching through current events and the Bible for “evidence” of the truth as to whether or not we are living in the Last Days.

Dan Marcus (@daroyal1) – Baybee

Pressed by the struggles of developing acts in an industry which does not favour fresh talents, Dan Marcus is demanding his respect from dancehall/reggae gatekeepers.

He told THE STAR that DJs and selectors are reluctant to give young talent a fair chance to shine, and warns that the music industry cannot be sustained without fresh faces.

“One of the greatest difficulty I face as a young artiste is the lack of respect or interest by selectors and disc jocks to support young artistes. Even if yuh great and have a good song, even if you pay dem or pay this man and that man, dem a go set up roadblocks fi yuh career and go around yuh thing,” he said.

Dan Marcus highlighted that dancehall has relied heavily on Bounty Killer and Beenie Man to pull fans to local shows for over two decades. He said such a practice has only stifled developing acts. The singer also begged for more support of reggae, especially during Reggae Month.

“Reggae is my life. It’s the way how I walk, talk, move, sing. It is the single greatest feeling of satisfaction one can achieve, in my opinion. That’s why Bob Marley could have captivated, and bring all that joy, to the world through this very vehicle,” he said.

Dan Marcus is gearing up to release his new EP Miss Maryann Last Son: Life And Times Of Dan Marcus. The singer said the EP shows his transition as an artiste. He also hopes to work with iconic musician Dean Frazer. “I want to make music that resonates with people differently, the type of music that I can tour with for years to come. This EP focuses on singles instead of a long drawn-out project and is less expensive to produce,” he said.

He said he felt like most of the new music out there right now is all about “a hype” and has no substance. “Nobody is original anymore; and as a man find a style, everybody run wid it. I feel like my music is real because I draw my inspiration from my real-life experiences and not what I hear,” he said.
