Kevin Ross Drops New Video For “Look My Way”

Published

on

Kevin Ross releases a new video for Billboard-charting single “Look My Way”! Influenced by The Jackson 5, “Look My Way” blends Kevin Ross’ contemporary charm with classic flair. The visuals further highlight the experience of being infatuated with an unattainable love interest – a universal feeling of pursuing someone who always seems out of reach. Playful, cheeky, and innocent, Kevin Ross taps into the core emotions that define “the chase” associated with young love.

As the video follows Kevin Ross through his neighborhood, he continually encounters the object of his affection but is unable to catch her before she disappears. The most captivating moment occurs when the two finally meet in an elevator, and they simultaneously ask “Would you like to grab coffee sometime?” This serendipitous moment is followed by Kevin Ross’ triumphant chorus bursting with elegant rhythmics and bold vocals.

Record-breaking artist and creator of his own record label, Art Society Music Group (ASMG), Kevin Ross continues to pave the way for other independent artists to follow. With more than 100 million streams across platforms, multiple Billboard charting songs, and a rich musical presence across film and TV, Ross continues to shape the current landscape of R&B.

Marz Starlife Makes A Striking First Impression With Healing

Published

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.
