The press release for this song makes mention that you only get one first impression. Because of that, the PR also asks what does this song tell us about the artist in question, Arjay Soul? To put it bluntly, the song tells me that Arjay is a young man on several quests at once. He’s […]
Read moreNew SOTBMusic: @EvrythingOShauN Is Almost Everything You Need on His New EP
I’m not as familiar with the GTA as much as, say, some of my Boi-1da.com compatriots. I know Drake, Weeknd, Alessia Cara, and some other talents.

Just got this one in my DM from DC artist NishoSoul. While it was released in early summer, the vibes on it scream “late summer.” You’ve got dreamy production to distract you from oppressive heat.
