Beth Roars Unleashes The Power Within On Debut Single ‘Power Of The Wolf’
Beth Roars is defying expectations and she thinks you should too.
Up until now, Beth’s 720,000 YouTube subscribers have known her for her upbeat and positive music critiques. But now she’s ready to show another side of herself with a fierce and edgy pop track that explores the dark side of human nature and our ability to numb ourselves with self-destructive behaviours. She has released her debut single, ‘Power of the Wolf’.
As an independent artist, Beth has overseen every step of the creative process in her debut album Fable. The music video accompanying Power of the Wolf, made by Beth herself, explores our relationship with addiction, female body image, online culture, and the rules placed on us by society. Can we be brave enough to confront the stories we tell ourselves?
It’s been a long road of creation and self-discovery for Beth, Power of the Wolf was written over ten years ago. Unsurprisingly, Beth’s relationship with the track (and herself) has changed over that time. “When I first wrote, ‘Power Of The Wolf’ in my early twenties, it was a celebration of the wild, untamed aspects of youth. It was an anthem for those who dared to leave their mark on the world by resisting societal norms and expectations. But as time passed, I realised that what I had once seen as empowering was actually blind adherence to self-destructive patterns. The wolf, that once was a symbol of liberation for me, has become a double-edged sword. Once embodying strength, resilience and individuality, it now symbolizes society’s glorification of power and dominance. Now I see the song from a new perspective, with the awareness of having been lost in a time before I knew I needed help.”
Get ready to unleash the power within, as we embark on the first step of this captivating journey. ‘Power of the Wolf’ is available on all streaming platforms.
This October, Hip-hop inna yardie style (old school fusion between reggae and hip-hop) collective L’Entourloop are set to rock UK stages, with shows in Liverpool, London & Bristol. Their Bristol date at The Trinity Center and their first London date at Village Underground are already SOLD OUT, leading to a second London date being added to deal with the high demand that L’Entourloop’s unforgettable shows create.
The dates will see L’entourloop hitting higher than ever as they perform tracks from their huge back catalogue, as well as their latest 20 track album “La clarté dans la confusion” (“Clarity in Confusion”).
Produced in their now legendary Bandulu Studio, the new album is a result of a patient production process, carried out with care and passion. Throughout the album, L’Entourloop testifies in its own way via a puzzle of film samples, of this strange period that we have just gone through collectively, using all its savoir faire when it comes to make the people dance.
Since 1964, when the song “My Boy Lollipop” flooded the European radio airwaves, L’Entourloop’s love for reggae and its culture has never stopped growing. With this third album, they wanted to pay tribute to the legendary pioneers of this incredible movement – artists and producers such as Tom Wong, Count Machuki, Prince Buster and Lee “Scratch” Perry. An album which is a true declaration of love for soundsystem culture and its children – reggae, dancehall and hip-hop.
The success of their previous albums “Chickens in Your Town” (2015) and “Le Savoir Faire” (2017), with their famous “Banging Hip-Hop Inna Yardie Style” quickly brought L’Entourloop into the spotlight, along with their hundreds of shows performed all over Europe. The mysterious collective continues to bring together an ever-growing audience around the world, as proved by their hundreds of millions of plays on music platforms.
True lovers of vinyl and old cinema, in their perpetual quest for the ultimate sample, the insatiable diggers kept their fans waiting by first dropping the excellent DJ-Mix “Start From Scratch” in the summer of 2021, followed by a series of 3 official remixes, including the Reunion Island anthem “Li Sem”.
Another striking characteristic of L’Entourloop is the great ability of King James and Sir Johnny to gather incredible guests from around the world. Whether with Skarra Mucci and their now classic “Dreader Than Dread” or their excellent EP “Golden Nuggets” (2019), Capleton for the extravagant remix of “Burn Dem Down”, producer Panda Dub they collaborated with on “Le Bonheur” or French singer Biga Ranx for their hit “Push The Limits”, L’Entourloop has the gift of giving birth to collaborations that mark the spirits.
With no less than 32 guests from all over the world, MCs fling lyrics like guns like in a western movie and the new album is no exception!
On the reggae side, Jamaican legends such as Ken Boothe and Bounty Killer meet new generation stars such as Alborosie, Kabaka Pyramid, Queen Omega and Marcus Gad. On the hip-hop side Chali 2Na from legendary US group Jurassic 5, Swedish MC Promoe from Looptroop Rockers, US rapper Rêverie, the excellent JuJu Rogers, French beatmaker Degiheugi and the irresistible South African female rapper Dope St Jude all make appearances.
The UK vibe can also be felt with features from jungle and dancehall pioneers General Levy and Tippa Irie as well as heavyweights of the grime scene Flowdan, Lady Chann and Killa P. Fellow French artists are also in the spotlight with guests such as Big Red, O.B.F and Manudigital. To complete this amazing cast, L’Entourloop has once again called on the incomparable Troy Berkley from Bermuda and the talented trumpeter N’Zeng, formerly of Le Peuple de l’Herbe, to accompany the collective on the road alongwith a new addition – excellent Dutch rapper BlabberMouf, who has just joined the killer new live show.
