“Gnetik Pt. 2” by Bknott and Kudoz is bouncy, fast-paced rap with a surprisingly chilled vibe. The beat on here does a great job of fusing classic approaches with a more modern technique and composition. It pays homage to classic New York hip-hop acts like Wu Tang Clan and Mobb Deep through its crispy keys-oriented sampling. Under that, the composition and broader vibe could be described as trap. The janky hi-hats, rumbling 808s and minimalist melancholy sensibility align this with the uber-popular Florida sound. In terms of vocals, these guys are bridging the two worlds as well. There’s a speed and technicality that defines the delivery on here which is clearly reminiscent of the duo’s old school heritage, but the healthy use of ad-libs and monotone, laid-back flow give these guys a foot in the new school as well.

Bknott and Kudoz come to together like magic for “Gnetik Pt.2” Their chemistry is immaculate as they compliment each others style to perfection with their slick flows that drip nothing but sauce and their hard punchlines that eliminate the stigma you can’t be lyrical on a trap beat.

Bknott and Kudoz “Gnetik Pt. 2” deliver a stellar performance as the two come together just as well as any other legendary duo before them to give you hip hop greatness. Bknott and Kudoz give you everything you could ask for from an emcee and more as they display excellent work on the mic over this hard production they stand out on.

Podgy Smith paints a perfect picture of dreams and reality in the syrupy “Circus In The Sky” featuring D.EdWordz. The Sdotfire (ASAP Rocky, Meek Mill, Kevin Gates) produced track is the perfect blend on this lucid dream journey.

Asian-American pop meets hip-hop artist Star2 releases the new single and video for “Just Like Them Waterfalls”. Inspired by a magnetic connection that unfolds over the backdrop of an exotic island soundscape, Star2 will sweep you off your feet with his romantic escape.

Over lush cascades of pizzicato strings, melodic strokes of percussion, and an enchanting vocal, Star2 muses on a budding flirtation. The song’s silky guitars and drum beats echo with island rhythms, immersing the listener in an reggae infused island melody. The strings punctuate and elevate the chorus, conjuring images of hula dancers, swaying palms, and the soft, sweet air of the tropics. Enhanced by soundscapes of cascading water, exotic birds, and a vocoder that harmonizes with the chorus while bringing an electronic vibe to the track, “Just Like Them Waterfalls” immerses the ear in the wilds of romance.

The accompanying music video is drenched with lush imagery as Star2 and his love interest explore luxurious palazzos before taking a dive into a serene waterfall. Their journey is framed by the motif of flowing water, the camera highlighting the parallels in their free-flowing and playful connection. “I love the islands – my fantasy getaway! This song is a romantic vibe to get us through the fall and dream of a dope vacation with a beautiful girl, sipping drinks, and enjoying paradise,” adds Star2.

Star2 was born in a Thai refugee camp and lends his identity to the music he makes. With millions of streams and impressive collaborations, he has performed amongst the likes of Soulja Boy, $tupid Young, Mozzy, MBNel, Luh Kel, Lil Poppa, HoodTrophy Bino, YSN Flow, and MarMar Oso to name a few. “Just Like Them Waterfalls” is the second single from his upcoming pop album Shooting Stars, due early next year.
