Die Südlondoner Sängerin Jaz Karis präsentiert mit 'Favourites' ihren ersten Tonträger mit 15 Songs aus ihren bisherigen, digital erschienenen EPs. Jaz' stilistische Vielfalt reicht von R&B über Reggae bis Afrobeats, als Gäste sind TINYMAN, Blue Lab Beats und Afronaut Zu & Sillkey vertreten, als Producer u.a. P2J (bekannt für seine Arbeiten mit Beyoncé, Wizkid, Stormzy, FKA Twigs, Tems, Doja Cat) und Juls (Mr Eazi, Stonebwoy, Goldlink, Wanda Coal, Burna Boy).

Jaz Karis is getting ready to take off. The South London singer and songwriter has been making waves with her silky voice and lyrical, candid pen since her first EP back in 2017, building herself up steadily over the years. 2024 will see the long-awaited arrival of Jaz Karis' debut album, Safe Flight, . It's a record that spans a breadth of sonics: slinky Afrobeats, gleaming R&B, warm gospel, shimmering flecks of pop, hiphop, jazz and amapiano, all woven through with the glowing thread of Jaz's signature soulful feeling. "Soul to me is a feeling," she explains, "All I want to do with my music is evoke feelings."

The imagery for this album all pertains to identity and travel - IDs, lanyards, nostalgia-tinged film footage - and in turn, it all alludes to the path that Jaz Karis is on. Safe Flight finds an accomplished, assured artist reflecting on where she's been and ready to step up to the next level: a star on the rise but still deeply down to earth. At once soulful, vibey and poignant, this is an album about embracing possibility, admitting mistakes, and trusting the process. "It's about getting free," Jaz says with a smile, "And it's not that I have it all figured out now or anything, but I'm on this learning curve. There's something exciting about being on the journey."

"Music was his passion. His life, his love_ his all." Book-ended by the two parts that make up the album's centrepiece, "Opus Imperfectus", Maestro is Magic Pie's long-awaited 6th studio album, years in the making... "Maestro! Where did you go? People ask and I need to know." Does life imitate art, or is it the other way around? Magic Pie is a Norwegian progressive rock band formed in 2001, known for their intricate compositions, symphonic arrangements, and blend of vintage and modern influences. Highly regarded in the international prog community, Magic Pie's music explores themes of introspection, existentialism, and human emotion. Drawing inspiration from bands like Dream Theater, Genesis, Pink Floyd, Kansas, Deep Purple, Yes and many more - their music incorporates complex time signatures, lush keyboards, and dynamic guitar work, mixing elements of symphonic rock, jazz, and even folk. Fronted by the charismatic Icelandic singer and lyricist Eirikur Hauksson and "maestro-mind" & composer Kim Stenberg, Magic Pie continues to strive for higher & bigger musical conquests. "Follow your vision, fulfill your dream".

Limitierte Auflage Neon Violet Vinyl! Kari Faux ist nicht zu bremsen. Die aus Arkansas stammende Künstlerin kehrt mit ihrem dritten Album REAL B*TCHES DON'T DIE! zurück, einer 12-Track-Ode an ihre Südstaaten-Wurzeln. Die LP verwebt Karis knackige Produktion mit ihrem lässigen und herrischen Flow, gleitet mit Leichtigkeit durch ihre Dirty South-Wurzeln und verweist auf Outkast und UGK als Einflüsse, während die Femcee ihre Macht behauptet. Die Rapperin und Singer-Songwriterin hält den regionalen Vibe mit ihrer unverschämt dominanten Energie im Herzen ihres neuesten Werks authentisch. Karis Exzentrik wurde auf ihrem 2020 erschienenen Album Lowkey Superstar hervorgehoben, auf dem sie die Hörer mit ihrem verführerischen, aus Arkansas stammenden Akzent und ihren schwungvollen Arrangements faszinierte. Auf REAL B*TCHES DON'T DIE! hat sich Karis einzigartiger Blick auf die Welt und ihre Vision nur noch erweitert, was die Künstlerin auf die Verfeinerung ihres Handwerks zurückführt. "Lowkey Superstar felt very Southern - it was me getting super-immersed back into southern rap and gospel music," sagt sie und fährt fort "Since I've been in this space for over two years now, it's like, Let me keep refining this and making it better." In der gegenwärtigen Hip-Hop-Landschaft stehen weibliche Rapperinnen unangefochten an der Spitze. Methodisch in ihrer Herangehensweise an die Musik - und selbstbewusst in ihrem Ansatz, authentisch zu leben - fühlt sich Kari in der wachsenden Wiederauferstehung von Frauen im Rap zu Hause. Auf REAL B*TCHES DON'T DIE! erinnert Kari Faux die Hörer an eine unbestreitbare Wahrheit: Der Süden hat etwas zu sagen.
