Sleep Deprived – Dreamville, Lute, Omen, Mez & DaVionne

24 February 2020

Dreamville’s “Revenge of the Dreamers III” was one of the most interesting projects of 2019, and “Sleep Deprived” is one of its best tracks — one that surely will please Dali and Jay Z Lovers…

Last Forever – Russ (feat. Rick Ross & Snoop Dogg)

4 September 2019

Snoop Dogg’s voice and relaxed flow fits the beat extremely well, and the opening line of his verse might explain how he manages to still be on top of his game even after almost 30 years active: “Nothing last forever unless you talking ’bout my rap game“… Quoting a famous Brazilian song, “nice and slow is how we get there” – this seems to be his philosophy…

From Brazil, with love! “Nas ruas de Sp” (“In the streets of Sp”) by DJ Nyack is a part of Jazzy Beats, a super cool project by DJ Hum with by Brazilian hip hop DJs….

Jazz Thing – Gang Starr

15 July 2019

Guru has already made an apparition in our playlist with his amazing track Loungin’. It was long overdue for me to bring up Gang Starr too, the legendary duo he was a part of along with DJ Premier; and of course I chose a track that’s super representative of the sound of Music to Dali & Jay Z Lovers (check our manifesto here if you haven’t)…

When you check the music video of “50-50”  by Toro y Moi (stage name of the creative Chaz Bear) on Youtube, one of the first things you’ll see in the comments section is someone saying: “for a second I forgot who I was” (honestly, same)…

FOMO – April + VISTA

19 March 2019

The fear of missing out (“FOMO”), ah, a modern classic. The symptom of the modern times. The strange feeling of being aware of the multiple possibilities of life (shouldn’t that be a blessing?), and afraid to be choosing the wrong ones (ah, yeah, this one is a curse)…

Why iii Love The Moon – Phony Ppl

30 January 2019

Art itself is a message; and when a purposeful sound meets an honest message in lyrics as well, that’s even better. That statement pretty much defines “Why iii love the moon”, by the innovative New York group Phony Ppl.

Thug life – Brockhampton

19 December 2018

Brockhampton is a great definition of what we stand for when it comes to art and labels. They are an alternative collective of rappers, singers and producers, yet they define themselves as a “boyband” – a title that is often given to mainstream pop acts…

forever rain – RM

4 December 2018

The solitude of a superstar might have become a cliché theme, but in “Forever rain” (as well as in all tracks of his playlist, “mono), RM, the leader of Korean group BTS, addresses it with such sensibility and poetic mastery, that it’s impossible not to feel invited to dwell into his inner world…

Ratchet Saturn Girl – Aminé

27 November 2018

I am so weak for mystic/astronomy/astrology mentions, so, a song that seems to be about a girl from “Saturn” would catch my attention anyway. But, when I heard Aminé’s “Ratchet Saturn Girl”, what really drove me crazy is how it kinda is two songs in one…
