Sol The Wise Ft Ken Rebel – Lvl Up @solthewise
The Ken Rebel featured “Lvl Up” is a single off of Sol The Wise’s forthcoming LP.
“We’ve all been down before because THAT dude got the nice crib or she’s with the guy with the Benz. Yeah yeah. We know. So that’s why you gotta Lvl Up and show them what’s good.”
The track’s high energy production and exceptional vocal delivery showcase some of the best creative comfort from both artists. It’s interesting to see the blend between these two artists from different ends of the US and different cultural influences come out with such smooth and well-executed delivery. Sol The Wise has definitely made his statement on this track that he should be someone listened to, so now it’s just about waiting for what he brings next.
In a city saturated with extreme talent, Los Angeles tends to give the world a creative every so often that pushes the boundaries and shifts the culture of hip hop. Artists like Tyler The Creator and Kendrick Lamar express their art in a form that brought the genre to unfamiliar territories, which in return opened the doors for aspiring artists to push it further. Sol The Wise is definitely a candidate to be an influential mark in Los Angeles’s bustling scene of talented upcoming artists.
Sol brings a refreshing breeze into the current state of hip hop music with his exceptional songwriting and one of a kind production. He has opened for Riff Raff and Quentin Miller, headlined a show in Seoul, Korea, and has collaborated with artists like Ken Rebel. Sol is currently putting finishing touches on his upcoming LP, a project that has been in development since January 2017. Sol grabs inspiration from Andre 3000, Kanye West, The Neptune’s, Travis Scott, ASAP Rocky, just to name a few. His creative capabilities are something we’ve all been waiting for a needle in the haystack.

(Video) Star2 x Seko – “Once in a While” @Star2Official
Thai refugee artists Star2 and Seko release “Once In A While”, the heartfelt new single and music video. Both born in the Mae La refugee camp in Thailand, the artists draw on their rich cultural heritage with the song almost entirely sung in the Ka-ren language and the music video filmed in Thailand.
“Once In A While” features poignant lyrics that reflect the deep emotions of longing and love, such as “My tears I secretly wipe them away by myself / I love you so much, so whatever you say is never wrong / I’ll chase after you over a hundred times”. Tugging at your heartstrings, the song is beautifully layered with rich harmonies, delicate piano notes, and a backdrop of female vocals that evoke a sense of connection that feels both intimate and distant. As both artists deliver their verses with raw, unfiltered emotion, the feeling of lost love is one that is never forgotten.
Refugee pop meets hip hop artist Star2 fled his refugee camp as a child when the Burmese Army destroyed their village and attacked them in the middle of the night. Faced with overwhelming heartache and loss growing up, Star2 found his solace in music. He has collaborated with the likes of Soulja Boy, $tupid Young, Mozzy, MBNel, Luh Kel, Lil Poppa, HoodTrophy Bino, YSN Flow, and MarMar Oso just to name a few. Now, Star2 is on a mission to elevate the next generation of Ka-ren and Asian Artists.
