$$Terick, the boundary-pushing visionary artist from Providence, Rhode Island, has once again made a huge impression with the release of his latest single, “Diaries”. This captivating composition showcases $$Terick’s unparalleled ability to merge diverse influences, creating a harmonious tapestry of sound that will resonate with current fans and surely draw in many new ones.

The single pushes the boundaries of contemporary music, challenging norms and exploring uncharted musical territories.
Speaking further about “Diaries”, $$Terick shares, “‘Diaries’ is cool. ‘Diaries’ is dark. ‘Diaries’ is about expanding art/music, trying something new, something different. To me, it’s a step in broadening music and not being afraid to go against the grain and try new things. I’m all about finding new sounds exploring new spaces and areas in music.”
The creation of “Diaries” was a labour of passion and dedication. Collaborating with producer Guhan Aravinthan, $$Terick infused the single with his personal experiences and journeys. “I was in the air and on the road quite a bit while putting this one together”, $$Terick explains. “I had to use what I had at my disposal while recording and filming this track. A lot of hours spent up at night, a lot of sleepless nights, a lot of things going ‘bump’ at night, and I wanted to embody that. ‘Diaries’ is what was born out of it.”
“Diaries” isn’t just a song; it’s an experience that challenges listeners to dive into the depths of their own emotions and reflections. With its evocative melodies, intricate layers and haunting undertones, the single invites audiences to explore the unknown and embrace the unconventional. “Diaries” is available to buy/stream now on all platforms: https://lnk.to/TerickDiaries.

Marz Starlife Makes A Striking First Impression With Healing

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.
