Blaze Olsen shares a rebellion against inequality with “Rich Pricks”
Blaze Olsen’s track “Rich Pricks” encapsulates the raw frustration and defiance against societal inequality. Originally born out of Olsen’s own experiences and observations, “Rich Pricks” has evolved into a powerful anthem with the recent collaboration featuring Daddy NAT.
Blaze Olsen’s journey as an independent artist has been marked by defiance and determination. Raised in a military family, he traversed the United States, soaking in the diverse cultures and disparities along the way. It’s from this backdrop of nomadic existence that he draws his inspiration, infusing his music with an authenticity that resonates deeply with listeners.
“Rich Pricks” emerges as a visceral expression of the artist’s discontent with the glaring wealth disparity prevalent in society. Living amidst the opulence of Malibu, he found himself confronted with vacant mansions and idle affluence, a stark contrast to his own struggles. The track serves as a rebellion against a system that perpetuates inequality, channeling Blaze Olsen’s frustration into a potent blend of indie pop, rap, and anti-pop.
The addition of Daddy NAT to the revamped version of “Rich Pricks” injects fresh perspective and energy into the track. The collaboration, facilitated by the power of the internet, highlights the shared sentiment of discontent and the desire for change.

As if dropping a three-pack project filled with bangers was not eye-catching enough, Burgeoning Ghanaian talent NSRB Dray has served another masterpiece with the release of his new single “Eye for Eye.”
Known for singing from raw emotions, NSRB Dray takes it a step further in this new release where he talks about being in a state of despair and self-doubt.
However, there’s no doubt about his intentions on the record. NSRB Dray goes in hard from the first beat drop on the YNT Deezy-produced track.
On “Eye for Eye,” he glides on the boppy instrumentals for two minutes straight, highlighting the world’s abundance of greed, unforgiveness, ego, and pride.
He opens with his version of the famous Mahatma Gandhi saying, “An eye for an Eye leaves the world blind,” before letting his baritone vocals shine through what can pass a “here’s how the world works” pep talk to the listeners.
The record boasts of superior rawness draped around melodious saxophone sounds by Sam Aryee, missing in so many fine-tuned street-preaching jams lately. NSRB Dray’s delivery stands out as the lyrics pierce the ears and hearts of the listeners to nod and note down.
He shared the reason for his choice of lyrics exclusively to Amplify Ghana, stating that his never-give-up spirit pushed him to send a message of hope to his audience.
“Eye for Eye is a music piece written in a state of disrepair and self-doubt. It talks about not giving up and staying well composed in every situation,” he explained.
After dropping “PLAN B” which touched on a similar subject matter, last year, this new release could easily pass as his master plan, but the singer’s unpredictability and versatility means fans can expect different sounds from him.
“Eye for Eye,” is NSRB Dray’s 2025 welcome message. It was mixed by the singer and mastered by talented sound engineer QID Korle.
