Detox From Grey Return With Captivating New Track “Star In My Sky”

Published

on

Detox From Grey are a rising London-based group consisting of Julie on vocals and keys, Jiwoon on bass guitar and synths, and Marco on drums. The name Detox From Grey refers to the idea of letting go of negative ideas, people, and the past in order to grow. The band’s music is a reflection of this message, encouraging fans to embrace the full colour spectrum of life and make the best out of it. The band was formed after they met each other at university in London, with Julie hailing from Denmark, Jiwoon from South Korea and Marco from Italy. Despite their diverse cultural backgrounds, they share a common love for music and a passion for creating something new and unique, as can be heard on their newly released single, “Star In My Sky”.

Delivering dreamy instrumentation and ethereal vocals that will take the listeners on a sonic journey, “Star In My Sky” showcases the trio’s musical prowess. It features an eclectic blend of dream pop, alternative rock and indie-electronica, with the bassline guiding the groove and the laidback sound instantly hooking listeners before the powerful guitar riff takes over. The song is a perfect example of the trio’s ability to effortlessly weave in and out of various colour schemes and moods, delivering a sonic escapade that will keep fans engaged.

Speaking further on the new release, Detox From Grey say, “‘Star In My Sky’ is about a mix of emotions – loneliness, feeling lost, but also refusal to give up on love. Julie started working on the initial demo for ‘Star In My Sky’ during the lockdowns and sent the demo to the rest of the band, which captured that feeling of being lost and stuck – quite literally inside the house. The song came out of nowhere one late night and brought a sense of release to the frustration.” “Star In My Sky” is available to buy/stream now on all platforms: https://ffm.to/dfg-sims.

Rapper 4t9 Sets The Tone For His Career With Powerful Debut Single “Freedom”

Published

North London’s 4t9 isn’t just stepping into the UK rap scene – he’s kicking the door wide open with his debut single, “Freedom”. Blending hard-hitting drill beats with motivational lyricism, 4t9’s arrival feels bold, intentional, and impossible to ignore. While drill music often leans on themes of street life and bravado, “Freedom” carves out its own lane, focusing on self-belief, focus, and determination.

From the opening bars, 4t9’s delivery is sharp and direct. His tone carries a hunger that feels authentic, as he weaves between gritty observations and personal affirmations. The hook – “It’s been about freedom, it’s been about racks” – becomes a powerful mantra, embodying 4t9’s belief in chasing success on his own terms. There’s no reliance on empty bravado here; instead, 4t9 taps into the mindset of someone who’s faced challenges but refuses to let them define his path.

His verses showcase a knack for clever wordplay. Lines like “In Paris riding the metro / I’ve been wavy from the get-go / I still compete and I get gold / That’s the 9 on me like Crespo” highlight his ability to blend cultural references with sharp storytelling. He paints pictures of grind and grit, but it’s always laced with a forward-thinking attitude.

The track’s production matches this energy, with a brooding instrumental that balances dark, rolling basslines with crisp percussion. It’s the kind of beat that demands attention, creating the perfect backdrop for 4t9’s powerful delivery. Meanwhile, the track’s structure keeps momentum high, with the hook acting as a grounding point that ties the themes together.

Adding to the track’s impact is its visually striking music video, directed by ODXC. The visuals mirror the song’s intensity, capturing 4t9’s commanding presence as he delivers each bar with conviction. The sleek visuals, combined with the track’s unrelenting energy, make “Freedom” feel like a real statement piece.

With this debut release, 4t9 shows he’s not here to follow trends – he’s here to create his own lane. His blend of raw authenticity, sharp lyricism, and motivational energy makes this debut impossible to overlook. If “Freedom” is just the starting point, there’s no telling how far 4t9’s ambition will take him.
