Since we first featured Tokyo’s Revenge, he went on to release a bunch of EP’s – the 2019 EPs MDNGHT (SIDE A) and MDNGHT (SIDE B) and joint project with Joey Trap called Trapped in Tokyo.

Tokyo isn’t just painting himself as a rapper, but as an artist that incorporates all genres. He grew up listening to JayZ, Original Flavor, Slipknot, and Disturbed. When did you ever hear a rapper cite Slipknot as an influence?
He made became known through the track “Goodmorningtokyo! Speaking about his debut track, here is what he says. “I think I know I’m gonna blow up because sometimes I feel like my music is garbage. ‘GoodMorningTokyo!,’ I hate that song. I’m like, Damn, I hate my own music, then I sit down in front of my computer, and mix and master my own music, and put in all this work, and then I put a tiny snippet after not posting on Instagram for a month-and-a-half, and people lose their minds over it. And it reminds me that the thing about blowing up isn’t just about whether you make music that people like, it’s about whether or not you can convey their emotions well through the medium of music.
He just dropped the latest 7 song EP, 7VEN. Give it a listen.

Los Angeles singer Belaro shares the video for the track Forever. Give it a couple listens and you’ll be hooked, especially if you like uptempo tracks made for the club. Her debut single came out in 2019 called FGirl that garnered some attention. The latest release is a departure from her debut single as it borrows from the 70’s – the disco era. Whereas artists jumped on 80’s trend, it’s nice to hear someone borrow from the decade before because the 70’s produced a lot of cool sounds. The track had a strong start landing on Spotify’s “just hits”, “Fresh Finds” and “Fresh Finds: Pop”. Give it a listen.

Check out RO and the track mykonos. She’s a self described bedroom producer with support coming from BBC Introducing and Fubar Radio.
