East London-based rising R&B/hip-hop artist Shelana Azora is ready to shake up the R&B scene with her new single, “No Luv”. The track is the latest addition to the growing R&Drill genre, a fusion of R&B and drill merging the jumpy BPM of drill with the harmonious melodies of R&B. The track is accompanied by a stellar music video directed by Lauren McCollin that complements the track’s 2000s R&B soundscape.

Packed with sweet melodies and candid lyrics that tell the story of “just a girl from the east side” and her journey navigating through the music industry, “No Luv” makes a huge impression on first listen. Speaking further on the new release, Shelana says, “‘No Luv’ is an inspirational R&Drill track about my struggles of being in the music industry from age 17 and my journey of growth, failure, doubt and hope for the future. I wanted to tell my story and write a song that captured how I was feeling at the present moment.”

Shelana’s poignant lyricism shines through as she shares her story and showcases her effortless sing-rap flow over a melodic drill beat produced by Jay Jay Musika. It’s clear Shelana is a force to be reckoned with, and the R&B scene has a star with a huge future ahead if this latest release is anything to go by. “No Luv” is out on all platforms and tickets are available now for Shelana’s first headline show.

‘Visions of Optimism’: Supreme Da Almighty Brings a Fresh Perspective to Hip-Hop

Hip-hop has always evolved through experimentation, and Supreme Da Almighty brings that mindset to his 2026 album Visions of Optimism.

Across 16 tracks, Supreme blends his own ideas, lyrics, and production with AI, resulting in a project that explores different sounds without abandoning its hip-hop foundation. The album stretches from soothing and melodic moments to energetic beats, creating a diverse musical experience filled with emotion.

Supreme’s connection to the culture runs deep. Along with being a producer, he is a promoter for legendary Snowgoons and the founder of The Supreme Da Almighty Show, giving him a perspective on hip-hop that goes beyond simply making records.

That experience comes through on Visions of Optimism. Conscious influences meet uplifting themes, rich musical arrangements, and modern production ideas throughout the project.

Instead of choosing between hip-hop tradition and new technology, Supreme Da Almighty brings the two worlds together. Visions of Optimism feels like exactly what its title suggests: a positive look toward where music can go next.
