K’eyla – Want To

Published

New voice in hip hop empowers women, challenges them to aggressively chase after their dreams

TALLAHASEE, FL – All the pretty girls out there, stand up. A new artist currently residing in Florida named K’eyla is making music just for you. But before you’re tempted to think of the term “pretty girl” as a purely superficial title, wait until you hear the message behind K’eyla’s music. Her art is less about physical beauty and more about inspiring women to be strong and independent. Representing her home town of Brooklyn, and with nods to her proud Puerto Rican heritage, her music is the perfect combination of humility and empowerment. 

“Every girl wants to feel pretty and my music is for them, but more than that, my music is about strong and independent women,” K’eyla said. “I want to encourage women to make money and take care of themselves in a respectable manner. Don’t rely on men for money and shelter, be independent and respect yourself and be strong. If God blessed you with a gift, you have to use it. He didn’t give it to you for no reason, so fulfill it. Chase your dreams and never take no for an answer. I want my music to be known for that aggressiveness and fearlessness of following your dreams.”

That Pretty Girl movement has been growing in recent months, and is set to take another leap forward with the release of her new single “Want To” which is currently available across all streaming platforms and will debut a video at the beginning of July. It’s a song about rising from nothing to success and the struggles that come with being patient and waiting for those things you desire or the opportunities you’d like to achieve.

“Personally it’s about being able to actually make it in the industry regardless of who hasn’t been there for me or hasn’t had my back,” K’eyla said. “It reflects my story and everything I’ve been through personally. Everybody has a different story and my individual story sets me apart. My mindset sets me different from other people. I feel like I have my own distinct sound and voice which is way different than anyone else. And everything I write about is factual things from my life – from heartbreak to making money to being in love. I also write a lot about the anxiety I suffer from – something I’ve struggled with through my entire career. Ultimately though, my music is about being fierce and aggressive with the dreams and goals you have in life, and that’s what this song is really about. One day, I hope I’m able to help minority communities and open avenues for minorities to be able to better themselves and escape negative paths or the flawed legal system.”

“Want To” is a purely rap song with an upbeat tempo though it utilizes elements of K’eyla’s background in R&B. One of the things that makes her stand out as an artist is her ability to both sing and rap with a voice that is immediately recognizable and unique and a rap flow that is unlike anyone else in the game today. K’eyla has been involved in music since she was 2 years old when she and her mother would re-enact and sing along to songs and musicals. By age 8, she was turning to music as an escape from some of the harder things in life, and by age 14, she was part of a girl group that recorded songs and performed throughout the Northeast. 

K’eyla is a dedicated, obsessive artist who was born to share her gift of music to the world. To listen to her music or to follow her on social media, please visit:

J Lyles makes his return to the world of HipHop, and in a big way, with his new single titled “Here I am”. It’s been a while since we’ve heard anything new from the talented artist but we can officially say those days are over with this new single as Lyles continues to prep a new album that is slated to release this year. Being lyrically relatable has never been a problem for the New Jersey native, and that continues to be true with “Here I am”. Life sometimes takes a toll on us as humans, we all go through ups and downs mentally and physically but those who stay true to themselves while staying afloat through the rough times are the ones that seem to come out the smoke when those bad days disappear. In his own words Lyles describes the song by saying “I discuss various points of my life and the effects of incarceration, family trauma and struggles to get through college and life after college. This song is a testament of wins and losses, pain, and perseverance that led to this version of myself. “Here I Am”.” J Lyles is that exact person that comes out of the smoke battle scarred and tired but wiser and battle tested. He’s always ready to give it his all when those tough times roll back around with rhymes like “Made it to 27 I must be here for a reason/applying pressure smothering all you turkeys that’s under seasoned/they telling me to keep going/my music the voice of reason.” Staying ten toes down with the current version of himself is what the artist is striving for now a days, staying away from those who may not prove to be worthy of being within his circle. “I’m a legend to the game/but I never wanted fame/cause everybody knows your name and unfamiliar with your pain” spits Lyles at the beginning of the second verse, further cementing his true to self rhymes being provided by the man behind the mic. With his debut album titled The Execution still being perfected behind closed doors, J Lyles opens up one door to give new and older listeners a sample of what is to come until the timing is right for The Execution.

(Album) D’Shaun – CRWN @RylDShaun

Published

Backed by only one single, “S’mores & Rumchata”, D’Shaun comes crash landing at #4 onto the iTunes top 40 HipHop album chart and right back into your music libraries with CRWN. The highly anticipated project lived up to expectations on the first day of its release as it also entered yet another chart on iTunes. CRWN peaked at #88 on the top 100 albums in all genres chart, sitting comfortably and confidently above Elton John’s Diamonds. This incredible accomplishment doesn’t happen without D’Shaun and the RYLTY crew’s hard work and dedication to creating an album packed with 12 playable and enjoyable records that each bring a different sound and vibe when stimulating your brain.
D’Shaun continues to put Converse, Texas, on the map as he showcases not only his talent but the talents found within his circle. From Austria to Detroit to Houston, he credits the artists around him for helping provide the “spacey yet quintessential HipHop but with a new school sort of feel” sound that he believes his latest body of work entails. This album not only incorporates HipHop but it also throws some dashes of rap, pop and R&B, adding some more seasoning to the recipe we already knew D’Shaun brought to the table. He’s dabbled in those genres before but with CRWN he brings them altogether in a cohesive manner, letting each live and grow with one another as they flow beautifully the more and more you run the project back. For him, CRWN is set to “change the whole landscape, the city and the state, the lives of each of these young men in RYLTY”. Those changes begin with track number one titled “Nonstop” which is fitting for the vibes that you continuously find yourself emerged in. Between track one and twelve you’ll find up tempo hits meant for the radio in “Chalice”, “Notice”, “S’mores & Rumchata” and “Alright”. You’ll also hear the artist slowing things down a bit with “4U”, “LoveSICK”, “Virgo Season Interlude” and “My Way”. Pure raps are expressed within the previously mentioned “Nonstop” along with “Gentlemen’s Club”, “Sprite Zero” and “Waver”. If there was a sound that D’Shaun didn’t think was fun or didn’t fit the wave he was gearing towards then it simply didn’t make the cut, the artist says that CRWN “is more fun and shows what wearing the crown is like” when comparing the project to its predecessor KNG.
Four years separate both albums and in between those four years we’ve heard how highly D’Shaun has spoken about the trio of albums he had been planning on releasing with all being companions to one another. With two down and one to go the one man band artist has been growing and maturing within his sound and will only continue to do so. He showcases that behind each verse, chorus, ad-lib, snare, kick or high hat he decides to incorporate into this world where creativity never ends. We can call this world “RYL” and here we’ll find the king at his throne wearing a crown meant for only him, exuding royalty the only way he knows how.
