Zay P (@officialzayp) – Greater Than I #swerrrdmedia

Zay P is an up-and-coming American artist who’s no stranger to travel. He got his first taste for music in his hometown church, where sang tenor for the church choir. Although When he was 9, Zay, his two brothers, and his parents all moved across the country from South Orange, New Jersey to Ladera Ranch, California due to his father’s work.

It’s hard to remain outgoing and be expressive when you’re in a new place and you don’t know anyone or anything about this new place’s culture. The feeling of alienation he got from being the only person of color in his school pushed him into being more of an introverted person. Zay spent most of his time inside playing various video games on different as a way to escape from his new reality, games like Super Smash brothers and Call of Duty are still today two of his favorite games. Zay P, now a graduate from Pace University, his parents alma-mater, has his sights set on breaking into the industry with his first debut project “I Am Who I Am” released to Apple Music and Spotify.

Here he presents hip hop with an almost nostalgic feeling, he doesn’t sound like any other artist in his generation, in fact he flows more like an MC out of the 90s. In the song, “Greater Than I”, we hear the artist proclaim his motivation for being in the industry and his goals for the future. With “I Am Who I Am” being his first project, a lot more can be expected from this artist in the future.

BlackLight (@BlackLight_ATX)- WolfHound EP

Austin, TX Hip Hop artist and audio engineer BlackLight has set his sights on a hefty goal: climbing the charts without the help of a major label. With intellectual lyrics, infectious beats and meticulous production, BlackLight is dedicated to his art. “I’m a lyricist. I give voice to unspoken struggles, I tell stories and I have fun,” says the emcee. After two and a half years of producing for local and national names at Matchbox Studios and The Recording Conservatory of Austin, it is time to focus on his own art.

This summer, BlackLight released Wolfhound- a collaboration Trap-feel album that he produced, featuring Fabe the Invincible and Ca$$inova. His next endeavor: hit the studio hard for the production of his debut solo album, Legacy. “Music is what I love, and it’s the legacy I’ll leave for future generations,” he says.

BlackLight uses music as a medium through which knowledge and empowerment can be transferred to his audience. A military veteran, business owner and family man, he is known for his political prose and lyrical content. BlackLight’s upcoming album is an amalgamation of these experiences, and represents his evolving art as a lyricist. Artists such as The Roots, KRS1, Lupe Fiasco and Andre 3000 inspire BlackLights style of music, which can best be described as Alternative Hip Hop.

Tracks such as “Look Round,” “To the Top,” and “Colder” are receiving radio play from local stations as well as online platforms, and BlackLight continues to interview and promote his brand. His first single, “Colder,” was a semi-finalist in the 2017 Unsigned Only music competition. “Next year I’m going to make it further,” says BlackLight. “I’m entering as many competitions as I can. Ask me again this time next year, and I’ll have even more to show you.”

BlackLight continues to perform in Texas, and hopes to begin expanding his reach outside of the state by next year. “I want to continue to build my fanbase… I want to keep that momentum going,” he says. “I’ve got my eye on South by Southwest 2018, and maybe even a tour. I won’t fail.”

You can support BlackLight’s goal by listening to his music, following and giving feedback on Soundcloud. Connect with BlackLight on social media and follow his journey.
