Mac Wetha: A True Craftsman of Sound

Singer, songwriter, and producer, Mac Wetha has marched out of his comfort zone and into a new era of solo work this past year with the creation of his alternative EP “Make It Thru,” released June 10, 2021. The EP staged Wetha’s advanced technicality in production and his creative dream-like undertones to originate the birth of an album drenched in bliss and bewilderment. The solo artist went on tour with Beabadoobee, a London-based indie-alternative artist, in the Fall of 2021.

Her name is Amala Dlamini, but the world knows her as Doja Cat, the American rapper, singer, dancer, and songwriter who rose to fame in 2018 with her meme-driven novelty song, “Mooo!” In her self-produced music video, she became an internet sensation dressed in a cow print costume singing “Bitch, I’m a cow!” To say the least, She's an artist who creates music by her own rules, and as editor Juliana Pache best puts it, she makes “slappers based on nothing, in particular, created out of sheer spontaneity.”

Alina Baraz: R&B Romantic

Love can take on new shapes and forms through art. Music is one of the big ways artists express their experiences with love and share it with the world. One artist taking love by the reins is Alina Baraz, who truly puts her heart and soul into all of her work. 

The talented Alina Baraz has been on my music radar for quite some time now. I remember first hearing of the American singer back in 2017 through her collaboration with pop star Khalid  on a single called "Electric.”
