Ethel Cain’s Gorgeous New Single: A Heart-Wrenching Story of Love and Loss
Ethel Cain has dropped. I repeat, Ethel Cain has dropped a new single. Hayden Anhedönia, known professionally as Ethel Cain, has released music for the first time since her EP Perverts back in January, a fantastic, experimental drone music album that saw her exploring new sounds and themes. Her latest single “Nettles” sees her returning to form a bit as she prepares to release her second studio album Willoughby Tucker, I’ll Always Love You in August, which serves as both a follow-up and a prequel to her 2022 record Preacher’s Daughter.

Better Than a Freestyle: How Spill It’s Cypher Series Became the Ultimate Theatric Showcase for New Talen
The Hidden Genius of Spill It’s ‘Class Is In Session’ Cypher: Lyricism as Theater The moment the camera pans across a dimly lit classroom setup, chalkboards scrawled with hip-hop messaging, vintage desks arranged like pews in a music room , it’s clear Spill It Entertainment’s Sweet 16: Cypher Sessionz isn’t just another rap showcase. The Class Is In Session episode, one of four in this visually stunning series, reimagines the cypher as performance art, where Spill It turns the cypher into a classroom where bars become the assigment and the mic transforms into a graduation cap. This is hip-hop with honors. Featuring rising indie talents like Nikko Tesla, Kony Brooks, Johnnie Floss and Durgaveli, this isn’t merely about spitting bars; it’s about platform building through rhyme, where the set design, fashion, and cadences collectively resurrect the golden era of hip-hop while utilizing today’s rap landscape on a curve.

The Shadow of Many
In a city that never slept, under tall buildings and flickering streetlights, there was a boy named Arin. He lived in a world where people wore the same coat, the same hat, and walked the same path every day. They didn’t smile, they didn’t speak much, and they never showed their real names.

Song Review: "Favour" (Cover by Godswill Oyor).
From the moment the first note of Favour (cover by Godswill Oyor) washes over you, you know you are not just hearing music—you are encountering a sound from another realm. This is not merely a song; it’s an impartation, a mantle, a spiritual river that runs deep into the prophetic undercurrents of Heaven. While the original version by Lawrence Oyor stands as a powerful song of favour, anointing, and divine timing, the cover by his twin brother, Godswill, ascends into even greater spiritual territory—adding layers of intensity, conviction, and holy fire. One might dare say that Favour has found a second wind, a new breath, through the voice of another vessel who carries the same DNA, both biologically and spiritually.
