  • Kendrick Lamar – Not Like Us

    Kendrick Lamar – Not Like Us

    “Not Like Us” is song by Kendrick Lamar. This amazing music artist is my friends’, who lived it UK, best artist. But before I go ahead to discuss about this wonderful song, let me share with you who the artist is.

    Let me tell you about his networth, according to Celebrity Net Worth, Kendrick has a net worth of $140 million in the year 2024. He has earned this impressive amount through his success as a music artist, rapper and songwriter, known for his socially conscious lyrics.

    Full name, Kendrick Lamar Duckworth is an American multi-talented and multiple award-winning rapper, singer and songwriter. He was born on 17th June 1987 in Compton, California, United States of America.

    Often regarded as one of the greatest rappers of all time, he is the only musician outside of the classical and jazz genres to be awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Music. 

    In the year 2015, he got married to his beautiful wife Whitney Alford and his parents are Kenny Duckworth, Paula Oliver, with other sibblings.

    With that said, Kendrick Lamar dropped the official video of this song on the 4th of July 2024, directed the video with Dave Free which features the whole city chanting. He dances with Whitney and the kids, and has a shot with the TDE crew. Absolute legend indeed.

    As for me, “Not Like Us,” is Kendrick Lamar’s song that decribed his ongoing misunderstanding with Drake, and the meaning of song is multifaceted and explosive. Literally, it’s a continuation of his brutal lyrical battle with Drake circle. Drake is a Canadian talented rapper, singer, songwriter and actor.

    While Kendrick’s lyrics about Drake definitely steal the show, the production on the song does deserve a few points as well. Kendrick calls him a “free throw,” an easy target and continues with a series of accusations and metaphors that labelled Drake as worse, weak, untrustworthy, and predator as well.

    That caged owl shot is the coldest way to end the video and beef. He literally put Drake in his place and said “you’re a prisoner of my thoughts now”. As for me, this is a pure masterclass in music. Enjoy it!!!!

  • FloyyMenor, Cris MJ – Gata Only

    FloyyMenor, Cris MJ – Gata Only

    “Gata Only” is a song by FloyyMenor featuring Cris MJ. This is the translation of this very hot jam in English. I found this wonderful masterpiece to be worth sharing and discussed about. Though the song was released in Spanish by FloyyMenor, who is a Chilean-American prolific rapper born in Vicuña.

    The artist embarked on his musical journey at the tender age and soon became popular in the rap music industry. He’s a renowned DJ who is known for his unique blend of  musical genres like reggaeton and maleanteo, emerged onto the scene with a distinctive sound that captivated audiences worldwide.

    Also, this very song is not complete without the presents of another popular South American singer, Cris MJ. Full name, Christopher Andrés Álvarez García, known professionally as Cris MJ, is a Chilean impressive singer and songwriter. He was born on 16th September 2001 in La Serena, Chile.

    He gained international prominence for his hit single “Una Noche en Medellín” and would eventually collaborate with Standly on “Marisola”, which had considerable success and a remix with Duki and Nicki Nicole. 

    However, what does this very song produced by Big Cvyu & ATM Yamil and titled “Gata Only” all about? There is no doubt this song has positioned itself as one of the most listened to songs globally in 2024, including Hot Latin Songs in first place, which marks the first time in 25 years that Chilean song enters this top.

    The song ‘Gata Only’ is a vibrant hit song that resonates into themes of desire, secrecy, and affection. The songs’ story revolves around the artist expressing a strong desire to be with the woman he is addressing, using language that is both direct and suggestive.

    It narrates the artist’s feelings and the lengths he is willing to be with her. Also, the use of the term ‘Gata’ (cat) is a literal way that refers to a girl or woman, often with a connotation of allure and love.

    However, ‘Gata Only’ is characterized by a reggaeton or Latin trap beat, genres known for their infectious rhythms and association with themes of affection, love, nightlife, romance, and adventure.

  • Phil Collins – In The Air Tonight

    Phil Collins – In The Air Tonight

    “In The Air Tonight” is a song Phil Collins. The name of this music artist is a household in the world of music. His name, coupled with is wonderful songs, cut across all ages and generations. Even generation Z (Gen-Z) recognise and enjoy his songs which was released before their birth. Phil Collins, in my opinion, is one of the most proficient and talented musician the world have ever seen.

    “In The Air Tonight” was the first single from Phil Collins’ debut solo album “Face Value” released in the year 1981. This impressive song is a solo work of English prolific singer, songwriter, drummer, and producer.

    As a solo artist, he has sold more than 100 million records, won 7 Grammys, 6 Brit awards, and an Oscar. He was born on 30th January 1951 in Chiswick, London, United Kingdom. He’s a living legend!

    However, Phil Collins wrote the song during the grief he felt after divorcing his first wife Andrea Bertorelli in the year 1980. The divorce contributed to his 1979 hiatus from Genesis (A then popular band group based in UK), until the band regrouped in October of that year to record the album Duke.

    And all of the original songs on the Face Value album, including follow-up hit ‘I Missed Again’, were intended to be “messages” to his first wife, in an attempt to lure her back to him. Also, from the lyrics, there’s a lot of anger, a lot of despair and a lot of frustration behind this very song.

  • Ben E. King – Stand By Me

    Ben E. King – Stand By Me

    “Stand By Me” is a rock song by Ben E. King. It seems like this song was made for me. When you are at the echelon position and things are working according to plans, you will witness a lot of people who will stand by you.

    But when faced with challenges of life, you see yourself standing alone begging for someone to stand by you as a source of strenght. And it’s disheartening to realize that, there is no single human being beside, including the one that claimed to be your lover. What a life we live in!!

    I always thought my love would stand by me during facing hard time in the year 2022 but I was wrong. The one good thing that came out of our relationship was that I learnt to trust in God most, because He will stand by me through thick and thin.

    “Stand by Me” is a song originally released in the year 1961 by American sensational singer, and songwriter Ben E. King, also written by him, along with Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller.

    According to King, the title is derived from, and was inspired by, a spiritual written by Sam Cooke and J. W. Alexander called “Stand by Me Father,” recorded by the Soul Stirrers with Johnnie Taylor singing lead.

    However, in 1960, Ben E. King was inspired to update the early 20th-century gospel hymn “Stand by Me” by Charles Albert Tindley, which was based on Psalm 46, “will not we fear, though the Earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea.”
