Nsrb Dray Releases His New Project ‘Plan B’
Burgeoning Ghanaian talent, Nsrb Dray compiles three substance-filled songs into a three-pack project he calls “PLAN B,” which he has officially released worldwide on all digital streaming platforms.
“PLAN B” might actually be Nsrb Dray’s masterplan to take over the airwaves soon as his undeniable talent radiates from the very first second on all three songs.
Known for thought-proving lyrics and storytelling as captured on songs like “Suicide,” “One Day” and the extended play “Into The Street,” the young artiste takes his message a notch higher on his latest three-pack project.
Nsrb Dray, an intricate creative, carefully selected the right instrumentals produced by SC4 and YNT Deezy, for the songs; “Soul,” “Born Ready,” and “Karma.”
With faint vocals, Nsrb Dray asks a very loud question in the opening of “Soul” – “Why sell my soul to the devil”? The record jointly-produced by SC4 and YNT Deezy, sees his impeccable songwriting skills come to play as he flares with pure emotions.
He talks real life lessons, music industry shenanigans and betrayal from close pals in the fleeting song. “Soul” is a simple yet profound reflective guide to life on the street.
However, Nsrb Dray quickly sends a reminder that he is of the street, and was “Born Ready” with Lucky YFK.
The impeccable switch from ragga to Twi delivery and back to ragga between the two is unmatched. They keep the message intact, but the groove is intensified as their vibey rhythm alters the song’s aura into a sunny beach jam session.
The Afro-Dancehall track, “Born Ready,” epitomizes a street hustler’s life – constant struggles of making it through the day alive.
Kush Rhymes joins Nsrb Dray and Lucky YFK on “Karma,” to form a power-trio to produce a trilingual delivery on the two minutes 27-second record.
Pain on hip-hop beats doesn’t come any better than this, the ultimate record is pure lyricism accompanied by a canorous hook.
The message is clear, move right on the street because “Karma” is real, however, for the trio, they might deliver that “Karma” by themselves so don’t cross them.

All three songs are perfect additions to Nsrb Dray’s growing discography, and he’s enthused on keeping the consistency as one of the best young talents in the game currently.
London-based multi-instrumentalist and producer Waz-u returns with his second album, Preludes: Dusk Psalms, set for release on 16 May 2025 via independent label Biodiversity. The 15-track record further refines the artistic depth of his debut, blending electronic textures and classical compositional techniques in an intricate, immersive listening experience.
Ahead of the album release, Waz-u is dropping an exclusive vocal version of ‘Vermillion: G Major’ from the album, accompanied by its original instrumental version. ‘Vermillion’ with Lilyg will be released on 18 April 2025, evoking intimate indie-folk and pop and follows the release of a vocal version of ‘Lament’ with Tom Norrington. ‘The singles are a way to give a voice to the atmosphere of the record and to lyrically encapsulate some of the themes explored,’ explains Waz-u. ‘Lily and Tom are good friends of mine and have both been listening to early iterations of these preludes – it felt right to involve them directly on this record.’
‘Preludes: Dusk Psalms’ marks a new branch of Waz-u’s emerging sound, guided by the duality of tradition and innovation. Combining his musical roots in early ‘90s dub techno and classical music, the album weaves carefully layered synthesizers and electronics to evoke the ambience of sacred music — from the gentle timbres of a choir or an organ to the quiet, open, and reverberating spaces of a church. Also featured throughout the album is experimental musician G9 LUV, who creates textures and drones by bowing his bass guitar, resulting in cello-like sounds. The release follows Waz-u’s 2024 debut LP, Prayer For Dawn, which merged dub, techno, and electronica in an exploration of the ritualistic traditions associated with both organized religion and dance.
Bringing the album’s themes to life, Waz-u will celebrate the release of Preludes: Dusk Psalms with a special performance at Our Holy Redeemer in Clerkenwell, London on 14 May 2025. Set against the church’s resonant acoustics, the event will feature live performance arrangements, including a choir, with further details to be announced soon.
