Mister Rabbit is making a “Subtle Tribute” to the musicians who came before us
Their debut album, End of History Illusion, features the focus track “Subtle Tribute” which is a song about wanting to be wanted, and how important that simple fact can be to people’s self-worth. Frontman Jeff van Helvoort spent a lot of time throughout his teens and twenties trying to deal with unrequited love and he wrote this song while he was in search of that.
The title comes from one of the song lyrics which references “Hold My Life” by The Replacements, hence the “Subtle Tribute” to those much-admired songwriters.
Tribe Friday’s poignant pop music video is a must see
The 80’s styled iridescent tune off their upcoming sophomore album was mastered by Stephen Marcussen (The Rolling Stones, Nirvana, Cher) and touches upon bouts of survivor’s guilt, unhealthy relationships, addiction and self reflection. Bolstered by a driving beat, the music video sets the stage for an explosive chorus that channels pent-up frustrations stemming from loss, built up anxieties and regret.
DeeBaby’s Reign “Never Gon End”
“Never Gon End” is the latest release from Junkie Mode, DeeBaby’s next project. A raw collection of melodic Texas rap tunes, Junkie Mode immerses listeners into DeeBaby’s mind, dripping with the ambition and relatability that endeared the rapper to his legion of fans. The young rapper compares his need to create to a junkie’s need to get a fix. Spanning 26 tracks, the new mixtape is home to recent singles like the heartbroken “Anymore” (3.3 million views on YouTube), recent single “Bank Statements & Deposits” (880k video views in just two days), and the moving “Junkie Mode (Intro)” (4.8 million views), in which he speaks on his deepest feelings and resolves, “I’ve been cut before, but I can’t bleed on you.” Already charting in Apple Music’s All-Genre Top 200 albums chart off the strength of a pre-order, Junkie Mode arrives on April 7th via Black Diamond Entertainment / Create Music Group.

Chloe: The Brand releases hyper-pop track ‘CO-STAR’
“Co-Star is about astrology and incompatibility. I wrote Co-Star about a girl I was seeing (very) casually in my first semester of Uni. I would try to justify her lack of communication- “she has a Capricorn moon!”. I couldn’t admit to myself that she just didn’t like me very much.” Chloe: The Brand
Vulnerability and catharsis: Faith Marie’s music provides an outlet for processing difficult emotions and experiences
Written by Faith, “More Than I Am” is about the process of allowing yourself to let go of your inner demons. She elaborates; “up until now, this EP has been about delving into my darkness, whereas this single expresses how it was a struggle for me to let go of my demons because I was worried it was the only thing that made people connect with me. If I lost that, I wasn’t sure who I’d be. I built a whole world on this darkness and I felt like healing was betraying that, but the truth is, I’m so much more than my darkness as well as my healing. Sometimes we get tunnel vision and forget that no matter what you believe, we are truly a part of this infinite universe and we’re not tied to any sort of emotion or anything for that matter. Remembering that from time to time can really put things into perspective and help to have deep self-compassion.”
An astute observer of the human condition, Tenille Townes’ discography is rife with stories that reverberate with heavy truths. Embracing good and bad, high and low, her singular voice and deft storytelling connects across geography and generations. Coming next from the revered songwriter, CCMA Entertainer of the Year, and two-time JUNO Award winner is the Train Track Worktapes, a five-song project to be released April 21 via Columbia Nashville/Sony Music Nashville in partnership with RCA Records.
