One of Australia’s most unique and prolific artists, BLESSED has become renowned for his ability to blur the line between hip hop, punk and everything in between. A guitar-wielding rapper, singer and producer inspired by Jimi Hendrix, Kanye West and Kid Cudi, his new mixtape Music Is The Medicine is a testament to his ability to transcend genre.

On the mixtape, BLESSED explains; ‘Music Is The Medicine is a sonic piece on self love, growth, understanding and the generational hunger for hope. This mixtape is a multi-genre sequence of songs shifted into different frequencies that affect the body and subconscious mind in an enlightening nature. Music can match moods and influence positive or negative emotions. With this project, I want to use the ethereal feeling of sound alongside introspective and reflective lyrics to reach a broken generation.’

flinchvision 4 of 31 scaled

Afro Fusion sensation, OOSHA , has dropped his highly anticipated body of work dubbed “OOSHATIDE” featuring 12 distinct tracks such as “Caesar place ,” DND,” “OOSHATIDE,” “Pull Up,” and “Over u.” The artist said of the new release in a statement: “On this project, I connect with my inner flame, It’s like an outburst on the inside of me that I’ve held in for too long. It’s not fueled with negativity, rather it’s fueled with drive, passion, and destiny. What people will hear on this project is a little exhale from me, only that it comes with fire.” OOSHA music has frequently divided opinions. his flitting across a range of genres. His output on his new album OOSHATIDE showed this off, earning him the love of a dedicated fanbase as OOSHA continues to salute the salacious nature of Afro Fusion, but his vocal deliveries are far-ranging, existing on the seams of diasporic affiliations and dreamy inventiveness. His melodies sometimes sound like mutterings from the depth of sex-induced sleep, but with his endless cache of Nigerian references.
