Rising Hip-Hop Artist VTA Shares New Summer Anthem “The Weekend”
Hip-hop/rap newcomer VTA has unveiled his remarkable debut single and perfect summer anthem, “The Weekend”. Hailing from Sydney, Australia, VTA makes a huge first impression, with the debut track boasting a throwback old-school sounding hip-hop production and showcasing VTA’s smooth cadence, infectious melodies and sharp lyricism. It may be his first release, but his talent is on full display, and it’s clear the emerging rapper has a huge future ahead. The track is boosted further by its vibrant music video (directed by @jay.cray) filmed in Pattaya, Thailand.
The song and visuals focus on appreciating the weekend after the turmoil of a hard week. Elaborating further, VTA says, “Coming from struggle in Western Sydney, and having experienced much of life’s ups and downs, ‘The Weekend’ was inspired by different experiences, in particular the street life and enjoying the weekend with good company and feeling on top of the world after a hard week. The idea was to bring a vibey but hard track to encompass the street in a way everyone can enjoy, musically and visually.” “The Weekend” is available to buy/stream now on all platforms: https://vtastreetvillain.lsnto.me/1mwogebk.

Rising Stars Dandy And Ramraz Deliver An Emotional Knockout With “Couldn’t Make a Sound”
Dandy and Ramraz’s latest single, “Couldn’t Make a Sound,” is a masterclass in blending raw emotion with immersive production. The Israeli duo craft a soundscape that’s both delicate and powerful, weaving elements of 2-step garage, jungle, and bedroom pop into a track that feels deeply personal yet universally relatable. The lyrics hit hard, with lines like “I guess my inner child is dead now” exposing unfiltered vulnerability. Dandy’s soft, almost ethereal vocals glide over the pulsating beat, creating a haunting contrast between pain and movement.
What makes this track truly stand out is its ability to turn silence into sound—both literally and metaphorically. The production is crisp and dynamic, pulling the listener into a rhythmic push-and-pull that mirrors the emotional tension at the heart of the song. “Couldn’t Make a Sound” is more than just a song; it’s an experience—one that makes a big impression on you. With their upcoming EP on the way, Dandy and Ramraz prove they’re not just making music; they’re creating moments that demand to be felt.
