NikoCorlin Positions Herself As A Formidable Voice In Contemporary Music With ‘If You Can Dream It’
Danish singer-songwriter NikoCorlin makes a bold statement with her new EP, If You Can Dream It. This five-track collection is not just a showcase of her artistic evolution but a poignant exploration of ambition, vulnerability, and gender dynamics within the music industry. Following the success of her debut album, NikoCorlin has taken a daring step into the depths of her creativity, and the results are compelling.
Written during a transformative five-week stint in Brooklyn, the EP captures the essence of isolation and introspection. NikoCorlin’s decision to seclude herself in a small room reflects a desire to escape external noise and focus solely on her music. This isolation becomes a catalyst for raw, authentic songwriting that resonates deeply with listeners.
The lead single, “Late To The Party,” serves as a powerful critique of the pervasive sexism in the music scene, specifically within Denmark. With sharp lyrics and an infectious melody, it highlights the struggles women face while striving for recognition in a male-dominated industry. NikoCorlin’s fearless expression of these challenges invites listeners to engage with the important discourse surrounding gender inequality.
Musically, the EP strikes a delicate balance between simplicity and emotional depth. NikoCorlin’s use of layered synths and minimalist compositions creates a lush soundscape that allows her emotive vocals to take center stage. Songs like “Lonely in a Crowd” effectively convey feelings of isolation and confusion, while “Dancing Through Insecurities” uplifts with its more spirited, danceable vibe.
Thematically, If You Can Dream It encapsulates the dual nature of dreams—they can inspire and motivate but also bring disappointment when unfulfilled. NikoCorlin’s lyrics navigate this complexity, offering a relatable perspective that resonates with anyone who has dared to dream. The title track serves as an anthem of hope, encouraging listeners to pursue their aspirations despite the challenges they may face.
NikoCorlin’s artistry is marked by her willingness to confront difficult subjects while maintaining an approachable, relatable tone. Each song on this EP offers a different facet of her experience as a woman in the music industry, providing both introspective moments and calls for empowerment.
In conclusion, If You Can Dream It is a testament to NikoCorlin’s growth as an artist and a vital contribution to the conversation surrounding gender equality in music. With its combination of heartfelt songwriting, innovative production, and compelling themes, this EP is sure to resonate with audiences and affirm NikoCorlin’s position as a formidable voice in contemporary music.

Kingdom Kome drops new videos for Arepa Y Manteca LP
Miami, FL Lyricist & Veteran MC Kingdom Kome goes to Colombia to fill his sweet tooth in a new double video and single(s) drop for “Mantecon” and “Arepa Mantecon.” The video (was filmed by Franco Imagemaker and Edited by David Sakolsky of Gusto Gold Productions)was shot on location in Medellin, which is also the home turf of producer The Equation Beats.
This is the first drop from the forthcoming full-length collaboration between the two entitled Arepa Y Manteca. Named for a traditional Colombian delicacy, according to Argentinian born Kingdom Kome “we decided to keep the project real paisa, which means countryman. This includes most of the album collaborators Colombian Raw, AjaxLo & CTraffik.”
Other album guests will include Che Uno, Sunez Allah and ParaNoize and the result is ominous instrumentals and grimy beats clashing with disrespectful lyrics in two languages.
Watch the official video for “Mantecon/Arepa Mantecon” here:
The genesis of this album grew out of a track that The Equation Beats produced for the duo project of Kingdom Kome & Che Uno known as Los Chicos Criollos featuring Crimeapple.
Watch official video for “Burundanga” ft. Crimeapple: https://youtu.be/AnB6RnMJ4Zk?si=FJ4Bk67rqR3CAzK6
Based on the strength of that song, Kingdom Kome and The Equation Beats kept it moving and lo and behold Arepa Y Manteca is on the way! In addition to the recent full-length drop D10S Sucio of Los Chicos Criollos, Kingdom Kome is also promoting Dirty Linens, a fully collaborative project with Brockton, MA’s G Fam Black.
