Published

on

Tropez’s “Thinkin Bout You” is a testament to the power of imagination and innovation in music. From the first beat, the track transports listeners to a world where funk, R&B, and synth-wave collide in a kaleidoscope of sound. Co-produced by Ben Allen III, the song’s production is rich and textured, offering layers that reveal something new with every listen.

The lyrics are a fascinating exploration of love and memory in the digital age. Inspired by The Matrix and San Junipero, Tropez envisions a future where technology can recreate lost love through neural implants. It’s a deeply philosophical concept, made accessible through the song’s emotive delivery and poignant melody.

Visually, the accompanying music video directed by Christopher Hill is a work of art. Hill captures the song’s essence with stunning visuals that blend the organic and synthetic. Scenes of glowing cityscapes and dreamlike figures evoke a sense of longing, perfectly mirroring the song’s emotional undercurrent.

“Thinkin Bout You” stands out for its genre-defying sound. The funk-inspired bassline gives the track its groove, while the synths and layered vocals add a dreamy, ethereal quality. Tropez’s ability to balance these elements showcases his skill as a multi-instrumentalist and producer, making the track as intricate as it is infectious.

With this release, Tropez cements his reputation as a trailblazer in the indie music scene. “Thinkin Bout You” is a song that challenges, delights, and ultimately resonates. It’s the kind of track that lingers in your mind, offering something new every time you press play.

Kingdom Kome drops new videos for Arepa Y Manteca LP

Published

on

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 RawAjaxLo & 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.

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.
