When Healthy Snacks was released in 2018, PEABOD never intended for the album to launch him into a Hip-Hop career. Now, he is a 2019 Rapzilla Freshman with a record deal. “I grew up listening to all rock music and folk music, and I am a bass player and a guitar player. So that’s where I started,” PEABOD said. “I have always listened to a lot of Hip-Hop, and I guess I never saw myself ever really as someone who had a shot at that.” Centricity Music’s signee from the Seattle area started his career in folk music. With an […]
“Our agenda is to spread the love of Christ, and we see it being spread and we’re seeing people who would never even seek his face have an experience.” Kanye West and his weekly Sunday Service have been garnering huge amounts of attention. Add the arrival of Jesus is King album and people can only speculate at what’s transpiring in his life. Rapzilla had the chance to speak to the Sunday Service music director Phil Cornish. He opens up about what goes behind the Sunday Service, Kanye West, and the validity of the gospel being represented in the sessions. What in your […]
Triple O last spoke to Rapzilla in 2015. Since then, the MOBO Award Winning artist has released his sophomore album Zero Not Equal To One and been nominated for yet another MOBO for Best Gospel Act. Here, we talk about his place in hip hop and putting Christ back into gospel (namechecking Stormzy, Wretch 32, Chance the Rapper, Samm Henshaw, Kanye West and Adele along the way). A lot of the Christian music that I’ve heard, and that my [evangelical Christian] sister listens to, is wholesome. I would say your music is much more hard-hitting and intense but has the […]
You may not know the name Rhyan Lamarr because he’s mostly behind the scenes creating your favorite cinematic adventures. Well, you should get to know him. This screenwriter, director, producer, and visionary is the man behind the film “Canal Street,” “Restored Me,” and the Christian rap short film epic ‘Better Days’. If you haven’t seen the film, ‘Better Days’ is a short film starring 1K Phew as the main lead. The film sees the rise and fall of Phew’s character as he finds himself in a number of life life-threatening situations. Ultimately, the ending of ‘Better Days’ is pretty shocking. […]
J. Monty just dropped his new single “100 Bars Pt. 4” along with a music video. He took the time to answer some questions about the track and where he’s at with music. What’s the central message of “100 Bars Pt. 4”? “100 BarsPt. 3” was more of a lyrical sermon. The message was to the point. Part 4 is a bit more layered in the sense that the message can be interpreted through the production just as much as the lyrical illustration. Sonically, you’ll experience the song transition from dark to inspirational. That encompasses the theme of my life […]
On August 23, Andy Mineo released a musical-podcast hybrid called Work in Progress. The project is unlike any released by the artist before, compiling several unreleased tracks into a single release with a podcast series used to create additional conversation. Whereas Mineo’s earlier releases accounted for a single season, Work in Progress gives listeners a more complete display of Mineo’s artistic evolution. Whether it be the fear of aging, a celebration of marriage, or musical experimentation, the album is a thematic feast and might be Mineo’s most powerful project yet. Perhaps the most crucial element of Work in Progress is […]
NF recently sat down for a conversation with Ill Will at NME.com this week. Being someone who tends to be pretty vulnerable on the mic, NF found some space here in front of a camera to be real. Considering himself to be a quite negative person and preparing for the worst, NF says he finds it thrilling that he outsold Chance The Rapper’s debut album ‘The Big Day’ in the first week of sales with his new album The Search. Nate also shares how his perception changes the older he gets. He looks back on the song How Could You Leave Us […]

Kay Sade brought the heat on her newest single “Trust Fall,” which she also produced. “Verse 1: People criticize and call it constructive without really being there for you.

Not so fast! The court case between Katy Perry and FLAME that dragged on for nearly five years may be continuing on. Back in August FLAME was claimed the victor and awarded $2.78 million from Perry and her collaborators after a jury found her hit “Dark Horse” plagiarized his song “Joyful Noise” featuring Lecrae. Now, the defendants are filing an appeal on the judgment. According to Vanity Fair, this is what parts of the appeal state: “the legally unsupportable jury verdicts in this music copyright infringement case that are widely recognized within the music industry — and beyond — as […]

Drafting out of the momentum of the group cypher, “Open Season”, Nomis releases his second single in the “Least of Green” series. Unlike the previous single, Nomis keeps the alphabet acrobatics all to himself on this one. “Atlas,” is a fun song that celebrates Hip-Hop, speaks to the early years of Nomis’ development as an artist, and ultimately lands where Nomis is now as a father and a husband back in his hometown of Oceanside, California. This song will give you the same feeling you had when you heard Just Blaze for the first time. You’ll definitely lose some friends […]
