LEVITATE: Gino Black’s Electrifying Anthem of Motivation, Elevation, and Triumph

Over the last four years, Gino Black has definitely elevated his sound as a record producer as well as being deliberate in showcasing his lyrical abilities as a premiere rap artist. In addition to hip-hop/rap music, he also produces electronic dance music, alternative rock and he also composes orchestral and ambient music for film, tv and other media.
On his latest release, Gino Black is full on balls to the wall focused. He has a clear and concise message to his listeners. MOTIVATE. ELEVATE. LEVITATE. CELEBRATE. While he cautions, “Don’t celebrate to soon while your building on success…”; he commands like a drill like a drill sergeant as he instructs us to first MOTIVATE ourselves through internal bravery from within. Then he advises us to ELEVATE ourselves mentally and our circumstances via hard work, sacrifice and discipline. After which point he tells us to “LEVITATE”; and what that means is to rise above the stress, negativity and BS of life. According to Gino Black, “...it is ONLY after we have achieved true individual success from our efforts can we CELEBRATE. Celebrating your wins too soon (while in progress) can be a hindrance for additional growth and expansion.”
“LEVITATE” is a very unique record in that it has subtle nuances of peacefulness within the sonics of the production, but at the same time, it quickly and energetically and viscerally livens up and gives the listener a sensation of supercharged battery pack of energy. Listening to “LEVITATE” makes you feel like you can accomplish anything!

Pivot Gang Return With New Single Location
Chicago collective Pivot Gang have released Location, their first group single since 2024. The song arrived on October 28, 2026, and it is the first single from the group’s sophomore album, due in early 2027. That album will be their first since You Can’t Sit With Us, the debut they released in 2019.
Location puts the crew’s core chemistry back on display, with Saba, MFnMelo, Joseph Chilliams and Frsh Waters trading verses over production co-created by daedaePIVOT and Ben Nartey. The video, directed by JLEAN, keeps the world small and familiar: a basement, a poker table, a pool table and a game of Uno, the group posted up together the way they started. In the years since the debut, the members have built substantial solo careers, Saba most visibly, which makes a full crew record an event rather than a routine release. Location works as both reunion and announcement, a reminder that the individual successes were always rooted in this circle.
The album campaign leads toward a hometown ritual. John Walt Day, the group’s annual Chicago celebration honoring their late member John Walt, returns on December 19, 2026 at Thalia Hall. Between that date and the early 2027 album, Pivot Gang are giving their city, and everyone who watched them rise from it, a full season to look forward to. Location is the sound of a crew that never really left, only scattered, sharpened their individual crafts and returned stronger. The single is streaming now on all platforms.
