Published

on

On the eve of Labor Day weekend, world-renowned DJ, producer, and actor Lohrasp Kansara released his latest single ‘Follow Me’. The highly anticipated reboot of the classic house single ‘Follow Me’ is a remake of the famed 1992 original house single by Aly-Us. The track was (re)released under the Wh0 Plays label on September 1, 2023.

It is a balanced blend of emotional, upbeat, and dance with exceptional vocals from New York City-based singer-songwriter Norman Alexander, currently signed to indie label Mlife Records also based in New York. The only remake to have full clearance since Aly-Us has gained resonance and traction across the nightlife industry and entertainment world alike. It was performed LIVE among Manhattan’s elite clubs over Labor Day weekend – ‘Follow Me’ has started a strong stir among New Yorkers. 

‘Follow Me’ is a mainstream house crossover offering emotional piano melodies and a melodic bassline in reverence to the original track. It has been infused with nostalgic energy and a modern twist creating a groove that will make any person fall in love, whether it be for the first time or all over again. Mesmerizing, ‘Follow Me’ is meant to inspire and be enjoyed as both Lohrasp Kansara and Norman Alexander take the listener on a musical journey.

Lohrasp worked for four years on the track and has made seven other versions in collaboration with other singers and instrumentalists. It wasn’t until he got to work with Norman Alexander that they were able to take the gold behind the song and amplify its brightness. Their brilliant remake of one of the most beloved house tracks of all time – will live infinitely at the top of both artist’s discography.

Lohrasp Kansara’s heart and soul are imprinted in the remake of ‘Follow Me’, featuring a revamped beautiful bassline and emotive piano melody that honors the original. Coupled with the unparalleled sound of Norman Alexander’s vocals which certify his singularity among singers, ‘Follow Me’ is beginning to spread like wildfire among listeners as witnessed in New York City over Labor Day weekend.

Speaking about the single, Lohrasp Kansara explains, 

“It’s literally indescribable because this song connects with me on so many levels. Since a young age growing up with my American family while far away from my birth mother, this song was a classic staple. Once I began making my own music I always knew I wanted to remake ‘Follow Me’ but I had to do it proper justice; four years and eight versions later I’m in tears of joy listening to what Norman and I were able to create together.”

Speaking about the single, Norman Alexander comments,

“‘Follow Me’ is timeless, it’s both fun and hopeful. It’s a call to unite.”

‘Follow Me’ is bound to attract new listeners to both their respective music. The track is available on all streaming platforms and upcoming live performances can be caught during New York Fashion Week at PHD, Lavo, as well as the following week at the Vegandale festival where Rick Ross and Coi Leray are the headliners.

Hip-Hop Heavyweight Kingdom Kome has just dropped a new single (with accompanying video).  “Cracks In the Foundation” (Produced by long-time collaborator RUEN) is a socially conscious dose of jazzy boom-bap.  As the emcee states “I was driving through my old neighborhood in Miami and it really had me thinking of the current state of the world today.  It got me in an introspective state and I made this message to the youth.”

Available via streaming platforms now, “Cracks In the Foundation” is the first leak from the Barrel Reserve LP fully produced by RUEN.  

Less than a year after the last collaborative LP the duo dropped, Malbec 2 Kingdom Kome reveals “we never stop working on music together.  A number of these tracks were recorded while we were preparing Malbec 2 but were better suited for a separate project.”

Following the high-end connoisseur angle, Barrel Reserve is expertly crafted boom-bap for the real hip-hop aficionado.  This extends to the album’s guest list, which includes Supreme Cerebral, Recognize Ali, Che Uno, DJ Exes, AjaxLo, Camarah Walleed and Soarse Spoken.

Kingdom Kome is still promoting his other recent LP for 2025 Alchemy II Ein Sof, which was entirely produced by another long-time production collaborator Onaje Jordan (Hometeam).
