Honing a decidedly fresh style and classic hip-hop magic in his voice, rapper $hadow is set to offer fantastic creations that lay bare his strong persona and energy.

As a maker of catchy hip-hop music, artist $hadow delves into the realities of his life and other intriguing things to curate his songs that hit at one instance. The talented musician follows no rules to dictate his authority on the genre and effortlessly comes up with new styles and sounds to solidify his reputation. By quickly redirecting things to the positive shade, the artist has tried his hands at experimentation, and it's beyond refreshing to hear the rapper trying something so off-center. Signing in 2021 on a good note, the artist has recently dropped two songs that are not-so-typical of his style but sound significantly impressive.

‘Please Baby’ and ‘500 Benz’ are the two soundtracks that chalk out his flexibility to play with tunes and the rapper never ends with repeating the same chord twice. His energy is infectious and the artist has completely flipped his style in the second record to pick up a more harmonious ambiance. The killer kick drums, the catchy lyrics, and the classic hip-hop beat orientation; everything keeps the song fresh and appealing. The artist confidently flaunts his uniqueness and shows that he is capable of more than just rapping by injecting effective expression in between.

$hadow connects for his honesty and the clear mixing of his unique features with the melodic hooks keeps the listeners invested in his flawless offerings. Both the songs ‘Please Baby’ and ‘500 Benz’ bridge the gap between melodic rapping and gritty hip-hop. The rapper impresses with the engaging use of verses and his softer yet crisp hip-hop tempo hints towards his brilliancy in the genre. Follow him on Spotify for more details.

“Regenerated,” which drops on the major streaming/download platforms on Christmas Day 2021, will effectively serve as Enjetic’s debut full-length solo album. It will also be his first full length release where production chores were not handled by his mentor Charles Hamilton (a renowned Hip-Hop artist who recorded for Interscope & Republic Records), such as was the case in 2020’s “Timeless” release. With “Regenerated,” Enjetic explains that he is “showing I’m back – I had taken a hiatus from the game for a bit, but this album is basically my rebirth of myself and my music career.”

The title of the album was inspired by a spark – a burst of creative energy – that Enjetic again found himself consumed by, as well as the overall idea of starting fresh and “forging my own path.” Stylistically, while the album hits many notes, it can best be described as having a mainstream Hip-Hop sound with a heavy Pop, Reggae and R&B influence. Production and beat-writing were again created by Enjetic’s frequent collaborator Voice Watkins, with Enjetic writing the lyrics. The album’s songs were recorded quickly, in this case in only 2 sessions.

As far as the songs contained on “Regenerated,” the first single released from the album was “Loc U Up,” which officially dropped in stores on November 20th after a successful music video that was extensively featured on MTV, VH1, and BET Jams. The album’s second single was “Blocking,” which dropped on December 10th. Forthcoming singles include “Let Her Know,” “Uncle Sam,” and the title track “Regenerated,” with videos to follow shortly. For “Let Her Know,” Enjetic explains that the inspiration for that song once again came from his fiancée Althea. When their relationship had come to a crossroads and standstill, the couple was unsure if they could continue as things were. Enjetic finally came to the resolution that he was going to “let her know” that despite the difficulties, he was not going to leave her.

New Jersey is no stranger to female thoroughbreds, especially in the world of Hip- Hop. Shikiba Carr, better known by her stage name “Keishh” is no shortcoming of this testament. Born and raised in Jersey City, NJ, Kieshh’s journey began on September 10th, 1995. Like many of her counterparts, Keishh had what she describes as a “good” childhood, although surrounded by the typical trials & tribulations of the inner city streets that is Jersey City.

Being the only child raised in a single-mother home, Shikiba spent most of her time participating in school-related sports & activities. This included cotillions, cheerleading, and football, unlike the majority of her female peers. Although heavily impactful and supportive in her life, and in her music, Kieshh’s father spent most of her childhood incarcerated; forcing Shikiba to develop a toughness and savvy about herself. Raised by a lineage of early childhood educators (her mother and grandmother) Keishh was no stranger to higher education and pursued a nursing career before dropping out of college to pursue music full-time.

Beginning to write raps and do remixes with her friends at the age of 14, Ms. Carr didn’t begin to take music seriously until 3 years later, at the age of 17. The name “Keishh” was given to Shikiba by a former associate who saw parallels between Ms. Carr and “Keisha” from the movie “Belly” featuring the late - legend DMX, and Nas. Liking the name, Keishh decided to customize the moniker and run with it. When asked what pushed her into music in the first place, Ms. Carr makes it clear that it was her father that initially embraced the music vision; having a background in music himself.

A music career is a dream that she and her father began pursuing together upon his release from prison, making it not only her dream, but a vision that they both would share. Shikiba’s world would soon be turned upside down with the unexpected passing of her father, and what seemed to be the end of the dream that they had started together. Although taken back, Keishh decided to not let this end her, instead, she uses this tragedy to fuel her passion and strive even harder toward the goal that she & her late - father had set. “It would’ve been selfish of me to give up after my father passed, I have to keep going.”

With mind, body and spirit set to attack the goal at hand, Keishh transforms from the young aspiring nurse that likes to rap , to “Da Don”, an artist whose voice & presence is felt in a mob-like manner. With a chip on her shoulder to carry out her & her father’s dream , being a mom to her daughter is what pushes Keishh to work relentlessly in the studio; some would even call her a “workaholic”. Keishh began to really make a name for herself in 2018 with the release of her single “Periodt”. This underground banger attracted a great amount of attention from fans, other artists & independent labels within her city. The reception of Kieshh’s art is what made her realize how powerful her music is, and why she had to give her supporters more.

Aside from music, Shikiba is well versed in fashion and is setting to release a string of online boutiques moving forward. Getting it done by any means necessary, it is no surprise that Keishh “Da Don” has a promising future in both Music and Fashion, setting herself apart from any artist of her time.
