MUVI Shares Stunning Single “Grace Cale”

Published

on

MUVI has unveiled “Grace Cale” – a sad-pop anthem that shows another more intimate side of the Italian multi-instrumentalist and songwriter. The stunning track arrives alongside visuals directed by Jari Brontesi and is the second single taken from MUVI’s upcoming debut EP, LINE-A.

The rising musician from Milan only made his official music debut last year, but it’s been an impressive run so far with three well-received singles, and he looks set to continue his momentum with “Grace Cale”. The track follows previous single “Baby”, which was released earlier this year.

Playing the guitar since the age of six, MUVI has been musical almost his entire life, and it shows on “Grace Cale” where his talent is on full display. The track stands out immediately with MUVI’s smoky vocals piercing through a captivating guitar-led instrumental, which was self-produced. The track is elevated further by its impressive songwriting and a strong melodic presence that resonates throughout the song.

Speaking more on the lyrics and concept behind the track, MUVI says, “Grace Cale is a woman, precisely it is the allegory of depression. She lives a grayscale life. She lives moments where everything is white and moments when everything is black, but what haunts her is the awareness that black will never leave her life.” “Grace Cale” is available to buy/stream now on all platforms.

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.
