Afterz And Azekel Team Up For The Brilliant “Soul Searching”

Dive into the hypnotic realm of Afterz and Azekel’s latest offering, “Soul Searching.” This isn’t just a song; it’s a sonic voyage that beckons you to lose yourself in its lush melodies and introspective lyricism.
From the moment the track begins, you’re enveloped in a dreamscape of sound. Afterz’s meticulous production weaves together a tapestry of electronic and organic elements, creating a rich sonic landscape that feels both familiar and utterly fresh. With each beat, you’re transported to a world where time seems to stand still.
And then there’s Azekel’s voice—a soulful instrument that cuts through the haze like a beacon in the night. His vocals are raw, emotive, dripping with a longing that is palpable. As he sings of star dust and sweet drugs, of wandering souls and boundless love, you can’t help but feel a tug at your heartstrings. This isn’t just music; it’s poetry set to a hypnotic groove.
But what truly sets “Soul Searching” apart is its ability to evoke a sense of introspection in the listener. As the lyrics unfold, you find yourself reflecting on your own journey—on the moments of joy, of pain, of love lost and found. It’s a song that speaks to the soul, inviting you to delve into the depths of your own consciousness and emerge transformed.
In “Soul Searching,” Afterz and Azekel have created something truly special—a song that transcends boundaries and speaks to the very essence of what it means to be human. It’s a reminder that, no matter how lost we may feel, there’s always a glimmer of hope waiting to be discovered. So take a deep breath, close your eyes, and let the music carry you away.

Marz Starlife Makes A Striking First Impression With Healing

Every once in a while, a debut comes along that doesn’t just introduce an artist – it reveals a soul. Marz Starlife’s first EP, Healing, is exactly that. It’s raw, it’s heartfelt, and it doesn’t pretend to have everything figured out. Instead, it leans into the messiness of real life – the mistakes, the heartbreak, the isolation – and tries to make sense of it all through music. Born in Jamaica, raised in the UK, and now back on the island, Marz brings a cross-cultural perspective to his storytelling, but at the heart of Healing is something deeply human: the need to reckon with the past in order to move forward.
Across the project’s standout tracks, Marz doesn’t hold back. In Bad Memories, he opens up about years lost to incarceration, fractured relationships, and the weight of regret. “Spent four birthdays locked up, baby remember me please,” he raps, in a tone that’s both matter-of-fact and aching. The production stays subdued and moody, letting the lyrics breathe. There’s no glorification of the streets here, only reflection. He admits to being young and caught up in the chase for fast money, but he also shows growth, making it clear that he’s not the same person he once was. It’s a track that lingers, not because it tries to be flashy, but because it feels real.
The title track, Healing, is where everything clicks. Marz taps into something almost spiritual as he raps, “I turn pain into power, darkness to light.” The song is layered with poetic lines and subtle emotional shifts, balancing toughness with tenderness. There’s a determination to rise above, even when the scars still sting. He reflects on his upbringing, his time in the streets, and the inner battles he continues to fight. “No shrink can understand how I’m feeling,” he says, and honestly, it’s hard not to believe him. The pain here is too specific, too lived-in. But instead of letting it swallow him, he uses it to fuel something greater.
What’s refreshing about Healing is that it doesn’t try to fit neatly into any one genre or narrative. Marz blends elements of UK hip-hop, Jamaican rhythm, and emotional rap into something that feels uniquely his own. He’s not here to be the loudest or the flashiest; he’s here to be honest. And in a world full of over-produced, over-polished music, that honesty stands out.
With Healing, Marz Starlife has given us more than a debut; he’s given us a mirror into his journey, and maybe even our own. Whether you’ve lived through similar struggles or are just someone who appreciates music with depth and heart, this EP is worth your time. It’s a reminder that healing isn’t linear, but it’s possible, and that sometimes telling your story is the most powerful thing you can do.
