(Video) D4vid Lee feat. Eihdz – “Hollywood”
Montreal-based alternative singer-rapper-songwriter D4vid Lee releases his debut single/video “Hollywood” from his forthcoming fall 2020 EP on Joy Ride Records/Universal (Loud, Shash’U). Lee is finally ready to make the jump to the big leagues and showcase the result of many years honing his craft. Known in Quebec for his collaborations with rapper Rymz, and for touring with Juno Award-winning rapper Loud for over two years, Lee’s new musical “renaissance” is more personal and refined.
The emotive new single “Hollywood” showcases the emerging music star at his finest; with his melodic and organically raspy vocals that highlight his hybridized singing and rapping abilities. Then add in his penetrating lyrics over haunting guitar riffs coupled with the heartfelt hooks and melodies of guest vocalist Eihdz that take this one over the top. The song’s boom-bap style and organic textures transports the listener inside Lee’s dreams, where he aspires to become a successful artist who can devote himself to his music craft and career full-time. “Hollywood, a place where dreams come true, they say. The rise to the top looks easy if you look at how it’s sometimes portrayed in the media, but the reality of the situation is that the long hours can be hard and difficult,” admits the vocalist who spent time in the Montreal Anglo underground rap scene recording a few EP’s under his old alias (David Lee) with his Backpacker Music band/project. “No one realizes the time you have to put in to achieve greatness. I wrote this song thinking I would never look back, just forward. It’s important to find what you love, and go for it, especially in these hard times. Don’t be afraid to set small goals.” He adds: “Eihdz and I have been building our career simultaneously for the past few years and I feel most artists share this same Hollywood dream. Well guess what? The time is now!”
Consumed by their desire to succeed, travel, and make a comfortable living off of their art, both Lee and Eihdz share the mic and invite the listener to follow them in their quest to live out the Hollywood dream.
The video directed by Alexandre Richard shows the duo in a North American house during a typically cold Canadian winter, exchanging their youthful dreams, while transporting themselves to a brighter world filled with promise, where the sun always shines – Hollywood.
Not everyone can be a winner. Detroit native and hip-hop sensation 42 Dugg is back with a fiery new single, Win Wit Us. The track, a precursor to his highly anticipated album 4eva Us, Neva Them, showcases Dugg’s signature style and lyrical prowess. In the brand new single, produced by FLEXONTHEBEAT, TyMaz, and Marshak, Dugg calls out those who try to ride his wave without putting in the work, cementing his stance in the rap game. The release is accompanied by an official music video directed by Counter Point, where Dugg and his crew dominate the streets and clubs of Detroit, visually reinforcing his message of loyalty and resilience. Dugg raps in the hard-hitting track:
All of sudden they wanna win wit us / But ain’t spin with us.
Dugg previously teased this new era of his music with a trailer featuring Hill Harper, further building anticipation among his fans. “Win Wit Us” follows a series of recent hits including Wock N Red, SpinDatBac, and Go Again. Earlier this year, Dugg made a triumphant return to the stage with a sold-out “Welcome Home” show at Detroit’s Little Caesars Arena, featuring appearances by superstars like Meek Mill, Yo Gotti, Lil Baby, and more. Notably, the event saw Dugg unite Detroit’s rival hip-hop factions, Doughboyz Cashout and Team Eastside, in a historic move to end the city’s East-West beef. Fans can expect even more groundbreaking music from Dugg as he gears up for his upcoming album. Don’t miss out on the latest single available for streaming here and watch the music video below.
