New Jersey Singer Apryl Talks New Music, Plans For The Future & Writing A Book

Published

on

As the New Year is upon us, how do you plan on generating more influence on the music industry?

I plan on doing so by doing more live shows, releasing merchandise and by putting out a new full length project.

Why should people listen to your new single “Bruised Girl”?

Bruised Girl speaks to the feelings behind trauma, specifically childhood trauma which I’ve learned influences our adult decisions and relationships. But it doesn’t stop at the feelings of the trauma. It provides you with an affirmation to live and heal. This “Bruised Girl” is going to WIN!

Talk a little bit about the production of this single?

This song was produced by my husband (Evibe Productions) and we started with what we wanted to talk about. This song took many dips and turns but allowed us to infuse our sound with a blues effect hints, and the live guitars as well.

What are some things that you incorporate into your everyday life to prompt your healing process?

I journal everything and create affirmations. I am my biggest critic but I am also my biggest fan. My desire is to be authentic even in my healing.

Can you talk a little about your most recent performance and what your experience was like?

I recently performed for 2 events in the same day. One performance was for Homeless Person’s Memorial Day, and I was able to engage with the homeless and share not just a song, but also share some of my story. This allowed me to comfort them and share words of victory in spite of their situation. However, I started the day sharing with senior citizens as I do every Christmas through a program I call Gifts for Seniors through my program Pink Heart Rehab. I gave gifts, encouraged and sang for them, and it turned out to be encouraging to me as I was not having a great mental health day.

What is up next for Apryl?

A new video that is scheduled for the middle of January on my YouTube channel . I will also have merch ready at the end of January and will finally be publishing a book.

Check out Apryl’s new single “Bruised Girl” below.

Lil $o$o Enjoys The View In New Visual “Passion”

Published

By

Enlisting Sexyy Red director Suave Films for the Remdolla produced small screen interpretation, Lil $o$o signals a compelling exploration beyond her usual Rap style and leans into the realm of R&B with the release of “Passion.” Following “Enhancements,” the timely track unveils a vulnerable dimension that showcases her versatility as an artist. With emotive lyrics and a smooth melody, “Passion” shines light on a deeper layer of $o$o’s artistry, inviting listeners into a journey of introspection and raw emotion.

In a press statement to Medium Creative Agency about single, the Issa Rae-approved “Florida Girl” reveals: “I love this record because it really shows another side of me. Sometimes, I feel like people are so materialistic or surface level, and I really am starting to see that ‘real’ is rare. I hope to find something deeper than that and that’s what made me put that into my music.”

There’s something in the water. From the City Girls to Kodak Black, with a long list of others, the Sunshine State has been the stomping ground for hip-hop’s culture shifters. Entertainer Lil $o$o is looking to keep that tradition alive. Despite being native to Chicago, since moving to Miami in her early childhood, she’s proudly claimed it as her musical home.

The 22-year-old Colombiana, whose real name is Sofia Donado, has persevered through trauma and pain and continues to show up for herself and her 3-year-old son, who she’s raising as a single mom. Lil $o$o’s boyfriend was gunned down in 2019, while sitting in his car, leaving her without a partner and their son without a father. He was in the music business, and after his passing, Lil $o$o found healing in discovering her musical voice. The result was upbeat rhythms intended to make people dance, smile, and feel free. It was the only way she knew how to make things better.

After laying the groundwork with promo singles “Better Life,” “Go Ooh,” “Bad Attitude,” and “Woo Tang,” the rising rapstress made her official debut Summer of 2022 with ‘$o$o World.’ Executive produced by mentor and label head LunchMoney Lewis, the 14-track collection of records includes additional instrumentation from JulianBeatz, SFL Xavi, TheonlyDiet, Toju, BrianXWhite, Diem, and SoundsbyBreezy. Guest features come by way of Roc Nation recording artist Bobby Fishscale, XXXTentacion affiliate C Glizzy, Warner Records vocalist Savannah Cristina, and Nelle.
