Seen in the studio with none other than Grammy-nominated, platinum-selling Latin producer Lil Geniuz, Miami’s rising star RichKiidNick has fans and industry insiders asking the same question:

Is an album on the way?

After a string of emotional hits, viral moments, and iced-out visuals, RichKiidNick is proving he’s more than just a lifestyle — he’s a movement. Known for his melodic pain-infused flows, boss energy, and signature Miami shine, Nick’s link-up with Lil Geniuz has the streets AND the blogs talking.

With Geniuz’s track record of producing for Latin giants and chart-topping records, and Nick’s story-driven lyricism and loyal following, this collab could be the crossover album we didn’t know we needed.

Stay locked.

The vibe? Luxury. Realness. Global appeal.

The moment? Now.

Da Foundation has recently performed at the Levono Center in Raleigh, NC. but the movement will not stop there. Continuing their journey, Da Foundation, recently released their album Sabbat Noir on May 20, 2025. Da Foundation continues to create music that is relatable, as they speak from existing moments as well as the past.

"Lust Paradise is a product of relief. It also can be a product of accountability. We often associate lust with love or love with lust and never hold ourselves accountable to the outcome...." Casso stated during the post album review of Sabbat Noir. "It’s hard to single out a track and say it has the most impact when each song represents something unique. In a space where we focus on substance in our music each song has its own impact equally."

Da Foundation speaks from the heart when they are in the music studio, which is why whenever these artists have a chance to perform on stage, they leave the crowd applaud. 

The combination between Mu Smoova and Mile Casso only creates lighting and heat. Producers like Emmanuel Williams as Manny Beats Chi, vTomic and Track Pros and Dreez of Global Sound, all would say, these two are magical and one of a kind when they are in the studio.

Da Foundation performed a fans favorite City of Gold and Lust Paradise well as Joe Lighting and Pussy. 

"Favorite songs is a tie between Lust Paradise and City of Gold I just really enjoy the beat and tempo.." Mu Smoova stated.

Da Foundation says this album is going to raise the bar. Stay tuned!

Hybrid Collapse is a boundary-blurring audiovisual AI project that fuses electronic music, generated visuals, and critical theory into a single immersive experience. The work is not merely an album or a series of videos — it's a conceptual framework for navigating life in a world dominated by digital abstraction, biopolitical control, and posthuman aesthetics.

The debut album Biopolitics is a meticulously structured narrative told across ten tracks, each accompanied by a corresponding AI-crafted video. The music moves from ambient decay to glitch-infused industrial and dystopian pop, building a world where identity is no longer stable but perpetually reprogrammed. Themes of surveillance, sexuality, artificial embodiment, and algorithmic behavior are embedded into both the sonic and visual layers, creating a unified, confrontational aesthetic.

What sets Hybrid Collapse apart is its integration of philosophical depth with striking cinematic style. The project draws on thinkers like Agamben, Haraway, and Baudrillard, translating abstract ideas into visceral, hyperreal sequences. Visually, the videos feature haunting figures — black-robed priestesses, synthetic lovers, faceless enforcers — all enacting rituals in bleak urban and ritualistic environments. Fire, oil, and shadows become symbols of sacrifice, transformation, and spiritual surrender to technological systems.

Unlike many AI-driven art experiments, Hybrid Collapse isn’t about novelty — it’s about meaning. Artificial intelligence is not a tool here, but a voice within the system. It co-authors the collapse.

Biopolitics is an act of resistance and a requiem — a refusal to submit quietly to digital hegemony, even while dressed in its skin. It is both warning and prophecy.

The modern music industry offers more tools than ever for independent artists, but that doesn’t mean it’s easy to succeed. Talent is only one part of the equation. To grow a fanbase and stay consistent, artists need strategy, marketing, quality content, and a solid team behind them. Without that, it’s easy to fall into a cycle of releasing music that no one hears.

CTRL Music Group was created to break that cycle.

Founded by Chicago artist YBZ Vandr, CTRL Music Group is a full-service creative partner for artists who are ready to treat their music like a career. Vandr spent years learning every part of the process on his own. He wrote, recorded, mixed, directed his own videos, and promoted his own music. Eventually, he realized he wasn’t just creating music, he was running a business. And without support, it was impossible to scale.

That experience led to CTRL. It is not a label. It is not a one-size-fits-all agency. CTRL is a custom-built service designed to help independent artists get results. Every artist is different, so every plan is made to fit their unique goals, budget, and sound.

CTRL offers hands-on support across all key areas of an artist’s journey, including:

● Studio booking and vocal production
● Mixing and mastering coordination
● Music video planning and direction
● Social media content development
● Short-form and long-form campaign strategy
● Paid advertising and fan targeting
● Playlist pitching and digital distribution
● Release planning and scheduling
● Show booking and live performance support

What sets CTRL apart is its focus on helping artists make smart decisions with their budget.

Most artists do not have unlimited funds, and CTRL helps them prioritize high-impact moves that lead to measurable growth. Whether the goal is more streams, better visuals, or building a loyal fanbase, CTRL puts strategy behind every step.

Once a release is ready, CTRL helps build momentum around it. From ad campaigns and pre-release content to launch-day coordination and post-release follow-up, artists no longer need to guess what comes next. CTRL provides a roadmap and handles execution to make sure the drop doesn’t just happen, it performs.

The results speak for themselves. Artists working with CTRL have seen growth in streams, followers, engagement, and brand consistency. More importantly, they feel less overwhelmed and more confident in their direction. They are able to focus on the music again while a real team supports everything else.

CTRL Music Group is redefining what independence looks like. It proves that artists can stay true to their vision and still move professionally. With the right team, strategy, and execution, independent no longer has to mean limited.

For artists who are ready to go further, CTRL is the next step.

What’s the price of a soul? Is it the money, the fame, the ice, or the life we glorify? “Disgusted” isn’t just a track—it’s a statement. A lyrical deep dive into the choices, consequences, and contradictions of the streets, this song pulls no punches.

With a haunting beat from OGxLoop and thought-provoking bars, Marcus Auraylius exposes the dark realities of a culture consumed by power, violence, and survival. From the cost of clout to the weight of lost lives, this is music that makes you think—and makes you feel.

For fans of raw storytelling, deep lyricism, and music with a message.

Sapien Medicine is pioneering a unique fusion of sound and healing, offering listeners an innovative approach to personal wellness. By crafting immersive soundscapes that delve into the concept of Morphic Fields—energy patterns believed to influence physical and mental states—Sapien Medicine provides an experience that transcends traditional music.

Your work with Sapien Medicine has garnered a substantial following. What inspired you to explore the intersection of sound and healing?

Sapien Medicine: My journey began in the realm of metal music, where I was deeply involved as a vocalist. Over time, I became fascinated by the profound impact sound can have on the human psyche and physiology. This curiosity led me to investigate how auditory experiences could be harnessed for healing and personal growth, ultimately giving birth to Sapien Medicine.

Morphic Fields or Energy Fields play a central role in your creations. Could you elaborate on this concept and its integration into your work?

Sapien Medicine: Certainly. Morphic Fields are theoretical energy patterns that influence behaviours and physical forms. (Rupert Sheldrake theories) By embedding specific intentions and frequencies into our soundscapes, we aim to tap into these fields, facilitating positive changes in our listeners' well-being. It's a harmonious blend of ancient wisdom and contemporary sound design.

Your album "Tuath Dé" marked a significant evolution in your artistic approach. What sets this project apart from your earlier works?

Sapien Medicine: "Tuath Dé," released in June 2020, represents a pivotal moment where I sought to craft not just music, but an energetic journey. The album intertwines sound, emotion, and mythology, guiding listeners through mystical realms inspired by the legendary Tuath Dé. This endeavour was about creating an immersive experience that resonates on a deeper, more transformative level.

Your recent works draw inspiration from vintage video game music and jazz. How do these influences align with your overarching mission?

Sapien Medicine: Exploring genres like synthwave and jazz allows me to connect with listeners through familiar yet innovative soundscapes. By infusing nostalgic elements with healing intentions, we create accessible entry points for individuals to experience the therapeutic potential of sound. It's about bridging the gap between the known and the unknown, making the journey of healing both engaging and transformative.

For newcomers to Sapien Medicine, which tracks would you recommend as an introduction to your work?

Sapien Medicine: "Depths of Your Soul" from 'Album 4' (2021) offers a deep appreciation of one's being and the world. "Angelic Blessings" (2024) features twelve tracks dedicated to specific archangels, providing a spiritually enriching experience. Additionally, "The Flow" (2023) focuses on "Chi Environment Saturation," exemplifying our approach to blending ancient concepts with modern audio techniques.

Looking ahead, what can listeners anticipate from Sapien Medicine?

Sapien Medicine: We are continually exploring new sonic landscapes and healing modalities. Our upcoming projects aim to deepen the listener's journey into self-discovery and well-being, incorporating diverse musical influences and cutting-edge sound design to create transformative experiences.

Sapien Medicine stands at the forefront of a new frontier in music and wellness, inviting listeners to embark on a journey where sound becomes a conduit for healing and personal evolution.
