We Speak Rap
LEVEL UP WITH NEW MUSIC BY GINO BLACK!
Miami, FL based artist/producer, GINO BLACK released his latest single, “HUSTLE”. This is a motivational hip-hop record. It is about striving to achieve goals. “HUSTLE” is progressive rap. This song has an east coast vibe and has a triumphant rhythm. Sonically, it is a call to action for those who are ambitious and motivated to be successful. It’s a hip-hop anthem for positivity and a growth mindset. It has a powerful beat and will surely motivate the listener! “HUSTLE” also features New York hip-hop artist, HAZ BOOGIE on the lively and compelling second verse.
With this song, GINO BLACK almost immediately follows up his most recent April release of his song called, “SOMEDAY”; which is a beautifully written dedication to his late grandmother. GINO BLACK believes the honesty and heartfelt nature of “SOMEDAY” will be a recurring anthem annually for Mother’s Day.
“HUSTLE” and “SOMEDAY” are available now on all streaming services!

For Benicio, music is a way of bringing together the different worlds that have shaped him.
His new single ‘EVE’ does exactly that, blending the unmistakable sound of Ghanaian HipLife with Afroswing and contemporary UK rap. Joined by fellow collaborators COLLINZ and SLO, Benicio delivers an upbeat, romantic track built around a recognisable sample from Ghanaian HipLife legends VIP.
At its heart, ‘EVE’ is a celebration of attraction and admiration, but for Benicio, the track represents something much deeper: the meeting point between his British upbringing and Ghanaian heritage.
“It means everything to me because I feel like it’s where my two worlds intersect. I’m combining my interest in rap music with my Ghanaian heritage. It perfectly symbolises my upbringing in a way which feels authentic to me on all fronts.”
The track itself came together organically during a studio session with SLO. Benicio immediately began writing to the beat, initially treating the idea as a freestyle, before SLO reworked the structure into the finished record.
Longtime friend and collaborator COLLINZ was then brought in for an additional verse, with Teigr handling the mix. Adding an especially personal touch, Benicio’s girlfriend also contributed background vocals to the chorus.
The result is a fun, energetic and romantic introduction to Benicio’s next chapter.
That chapter follows his work with the RUDEWRLD collective, whose Dreams Worth Fighting For tape reached the Top 15 of Ghana’s All Album Charts and Top 5 of Ghana’s World Genre Chart. His music has also received playlist support from Spotify and Apple Music.
Now, with his forthcoming debut mixtape A Beautiful Day on the horizon, Benicio is stepping further into his own artistic identity.
‘EVE’ captures that intersection perfectly: infectious, personal and unapologetically rooted in who Benicio is.
