Still, the soothing musical landscape of Evolution EP creates a creative contrast and allows it to flow perfectly with his vocal tone.
London-based Mr Streetz’s writing capabilities demonstrate depth and grasp of their talents required to create songs that speak to their own experience. They are quickly becoming a brand name to be acknowledged in an ever-growing industry that’s in desperate need of a new generation of music. Mr Streetz brings a combination of lyrical flow, hypnotic beats, and emotional pull that captivates the soul.

Furthermore, Mr Streetz employs a one-of-a-kind rhyming style and lyrical craft that brings the most conscious and emotional weight possible.
The story, concept, and performance of Born This Way — including clever wordplay – are key components of the music. Mr Streetz’s music is unapologetically honest, raw, and beautifully crafted throughout the entire Evolution EP.

Mr Streetz is one of those artists who always felt the need to travel the world to expand his horizons and absorb different cultures and styles in music. At a young age, he became passionate about music, especially Rap, through channels such as MTV. This bond with music remained alive and solid until, this year, he decided to get involved, debuting on all digital streaming platforms. His first single ‘Break the Mould’, released in January and highlighted his talent in writing and ability to blend his voice with the beat perfectly. Mr Streetz decided to devote himself more to music. He thus published numerous impact singles, such as ‘Otherside’ and ‘Money Heist’, which confirm the artist’s talent and the good things done up to that moment. Listening to his music, we notice how his influences come from the UK Grime scene and artists of other musical genres such as Elvis, The Beatles and the 80s music scene.

Zikeymarz combines delicacy with weight in an addictive and unique form for the aptly titled “Let Me Be Your Man” beautifully merging the purity and melodic embrace with a swiftly invigorating, summertime reggae atmosphere and a captivating dance beat.
Let Me Be Your Man skillfully straddles the line between unconstrained artistic expression and the mainstream building blocks that are known to create waves, fusing engaging music vibes with a contemporary finish that is as crisp and clear as the best of them. There are as many inventive sound-play moments as there are some that feel genuinely lost in the moment — appearing as if it were a live, in-the-moment performance.
“Let Me Be Your Man” flows through with a charming realness, beginning with a swiftly uplifting reggae bounce and ending with a vocal and synth gentleness. It is an unmistakable and remarkable track for its natural qualities and the true sense of color and hopefulness it radiates, rather than an in-your-face or humorous effort at a catchy smash.

Spiritually armed and shooting for the heart, gospel hip hop sensation Seyi Senzino has much to offer on their latest single Beautiful.
If ever a song was perfectly designed to open up a conceptually considerate project Beautiful is the one. A clear sense of rap meets with a ministry-style vocal that inspires confidence and invites the audience to participate in glorious praise.
That leading voice and hip-hop melody are mesmerizing. The vocal tone and the delivery fit the mood and purpose of this writing perfectly. So all wanted in the background are these dashes of choir-like murmurs, a mellow beat, and a glimmer of instrumentation in the distance. The entire Beautiful is so spacious and calming to have filled the room.
Seyi Senzino breathes life into the melody at every step. Understanding the likes of Seyi Senzino in soul-meets-gospel hip-hop style, but holding things focused and of depth regarding the underlying faith and dedication to a higher power.
That melody and these words in Beautiful are easy to connect with and involve yourself in, which is an enormous calling card in terms of the compelling Christian hip hop of Seyi Senzino.

“Rain” is something different coming from Khari Ennui corner, fusing together a catchy soundscape with theatrical story-telling origins and a blissfully soulful hip-hop vocal – the result is something that feels like rhyme and ultimately paves the way for a more creative, sensitive, and immersive hip hop realm of tomorrow.
The effect of “Rain” is to draw the listener’s attention to the soft and soulful rhythm and…of course, Khari Ennui’s vocals in the background. Or, more precisely, the intimacy of the lyrics — there’s a wide range of them on display.
As a result of the overall mood shift of Rain, the audience’s spirits are lifted as a result. It is only a brief moment, but the swagger and empowerment of the lyrical passages are swiftly restored, and we begin to connect with the bold and beautiful undertones that run throughout this song.
“Rain” sheds new light on the artist, striking a chord with spectators because of its transparency, fragility, purity, and the powerful artistic thread that runs through the work. Perfect for a night out in the city and my personal favorite from the Khari Ennui line.
