Published

on

FuzzMack is a Philadelphia based artist who is building a loyal following for his Gospel, Neo-Soul, and Trap influenced sound. With three songs out on his Spotify, he already has over 35,000 total streams.

Of his three songs, his highest performing to date is titled “Coke & Mentos” which has nearly 19,000 streams by itself. FuzzMack is currently promoting the music video for this track and it’s a can’t miss visual experience.

Given the swelling buzz around FuzzMack and the video he’s promoting, we caught up with the emcee to talk about his music, influences, goals, and his label HNRBL Records.

Getting to Know FuzzMack

Knowing the type of music that influences an artist is a great starting point to understanding them and their music. Seeing Gospel and Neo-Soul on FuzzMack’s sound influence list is no surprise for a man who’s from the City of Love, a city with deep roots in these genres as well as the world of Hip-Hop.

FuzzMack used the terms “Unique flow” and “Infectious sound” when describing his music. We found this to be spot on, and with this in mind, it should be no surprise some of the artists that he listed when we asked about influences for him as an artist.

“Young Thug, PartyNextDoor, Tame Impala, & Kanye West.”

Unique and infectious, indeed.

FuzzMack’s sound is definitely these things, we can certainly feel his influences in his sound, and we can feel the heart of Philadelphia in him as a musician. But to truly know him and his music, you have to hear it for yourself.

FuzzMack’s Music

As we mentioned off of the top, he is currently promoting a music video for his song “Coke & Mentos”, and he has three songs on Spotify at this time. We took a look at all three songs and the aforementioned video, and here are our thoughts.

“Coke & Mentos”

This song is funky, it’s full of soul, and it sounds straight out of the future. The simple hip-hop kit reels you in, the atmospheric melody and chorus of sounds and noises add a futuristic feel that FuzzMack’s voice only accentuates.

In short, this song’s vibe is out of this world.

The video is laid back, the track is a flowing soulful ride into the stratosphere, and the whole thing had us nodding our heads along with it. And when it comes to his flow, it was smooth, confident, and versatile. It’s no wonder that “Coke & Mentos” is putting up stats.

Check out the video here.

“Money Marriage”

This song comes at you with a blending of an old school east coast sound mixed with elements of the new school vocals. Yet again, FuzzMack delivers when it comes to creative and varied flows and lyrics across an incredible beat.

The music video is high-quality and adds to the music without getting in the way. A classic studio shot video that allows FuzzMack to shine while giving listeners something to watch.

Check out the video here.

“Victorious”

Victorious is a cool Hip-Hop/R&B styled track that has a real chill and soulful sound. FuzzMack’s marque vocals shine through once again and he puts a full flow show on by constantly switching tempos and schemes while delivering some great lyrical content.

He again shows off his ability as a song writer with this lyrical content and with an incredibly catchy hook. Check this song out on Spotify.

What’s Next for FuzzMack

With every artist we talk to, we ask them about their future and what we can expect from them. We took that question to FuzzMack, and here is what he told us.

“Next, it’s to push “Coke & Mentos” to the top of the charts.”

Focus is a skill that serves well in this industry, and this singular goal and focus will help him grow his career.

In addition to his career as an artist, FuzzMack is running a label that is also in his plans to grow. The label is named HNRBL Records and the goals are simple and virtuous.

“As a music business, we want to stay independent and be a staple in the industry as the “go to” for creating a hit record.”

FuzzMack continued on to say:

“We plan to bring an innovative approach to the industry, thus creating a staple for decades to come.”

This is a man with big goals for himself and his label and he’s set out to achieve them by crafting a unique and stunning sound that is catching on with listeners at a rapid rate. With a limited catalog at this time, he is showing unsigned artists the value in quality over quantity.

This approach to quality extends beyond just his music. When you look at his social profiles and music profiles you see consistent messaging and branding. Better yet, his visuals (images & music videos) are all high-quality, and his profile bio’s tell the same consistent story. For a man looking to build a career as an artist and a label owner, he’s already showing his firm grasp on the business side of things.

“Him” Teaser: Jordan Peele’s New Sports Horror Film Tackles Obsession and Sacrifice

Published

on

How far would you go for greatness?

The first chilling teaser for “Him”, a Jordan Peele-produced psychological sports horror film, has dropped—and it raises an unsettling question: What must athletes truly sacrifice to achieve superstardom? From blood and sweat to faith and identity, the film looks to unpack the cost of ambition in the most terrifying way possible.

A Dark Tale of Fame and Obsession

“Him” stars Tyriq Withers, a real-life former college wide receiver, as Cameron Cade, a fictional rising-star quarterback whose dreams are crushed after a brutal attack by an obsessed fan. Just when his future in football seems over, Cade is offered a lifeline from his idol: Isaiah White, an NFL legend played by Marlon Wayans.

Isaiah invites Cade to train at his secluded compound—an invitation that seems too good to be true. As their training intensifies, Cade discovers that his mentor’s charm masks a much darker force. What starts as a chance at redemption turns into a psychological descent that threatens Cade’s mind, body, and soul.

Official Synopsis

“Cameron Cade (Withers) is a rising-star quarterback who has devoted his life and identity to football. On the eve of professional football’s annual scouting Combine, Cam is attacked by an unhinged fan and suffers a potentially career-ending brain trauma. Just when all seems lost, Cam receives a lifeline when his hero, Isaiah White (Wayans), a legendary eight-time Championship quarterback and cultural megastar, offers to train Cam at Isaiah’s isolated compound that he shares with his celebrity influencer wife, Elsie White (Julia Fox). But as Cam’s training accelerates, Isaiah’s charisma begins to curdle into something darker, sending his protégé down a disorienting rabbit hole that may cost him more than he ever bargained for.”

A Star-Studded, Genre-Bending Cast

Joining Withers and Wayans are Julia Fox as Isaiah’s enigmatic wife, Tim Heidecker, Jim Jefferies, MMA star Maurice Greene, hip-hop artist Guapdad 4000, and Grammy-nominated musician Tierra Whack.

Directed by Justin Tipping, the film is based on a Black List screenplay by Zack Akers and Skip Bronkie, with Tipping contributing to the final script. The production is helmed by Monkeypaw Productions, the creative powerhouse behind Peele’s genre-defining hits like Get Out and Nope.

Monkeypaw’s Latest Mind-Bending Vision

“Him” is the latest project under Monkeypaw’s ongoing five-year deal with Universal Pictures, signed in 2019. Producers include Jordan Peele, Ian Cooper, Win Rosenfeld, and Jamal M. Watson, with David Kern and Kate Oh serving as executive producers.

Jordan Peele has teased his own fourth directorial project is in the works, calling it potentially his “favorite movie yet.” In a 2024 interview on Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend, Peele emphasized the importance of “grounding characters” in both horror and comedy, “The fantastical and the imagination… that becomes a certain type of project and exercise. But the exercise of grounding it is always what makes it work. That to me, in horror especially, is the hardest part.”

Conclusion: A New Era of Horror and Sports Collide

With a unique mix of psychological horror, sports drama, and social commentary, “Him” promises to be a genre-defying thriller that pushes the boundaries of what a sports movie can be. As the line between dedication and obsession blurs, audiences are left to ask: How much would you give to be the best?

Danny Boyle Drops Second Trailer for '28 Years Later

The undead are back, and they’re angrier than ever. Columbia Pictures has unveiled Official Trailer 2 for 28 Years Later, the long-awaited sequel to Danny Boyle’s iconic post-apocalyptic film 28 Days Later. This marks the first in a new trilogy from the original team—director Danny Boyle and writer Alex Garland—joined by a high-profile cast and a grittier vision of the infected-plagued UK.

A New Generation Faces the Rage Virus

Set nearly three decades after the original outbreak, the film follows a small band of survivors quarantined on an isolated island connected to the mainland by a single fortified causeway. When one member ventures into the devastated mainland, he unearths horrifying truths—not just about the infected, but about what humanity has become.

The trailer offers a grim and suspenseful look at a UK transformed by chaos, brutality, and survival instinct.

Star Power and New Horrors

The cast includes Jodie Comer, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Jack O’Connell, Alfie Williams, and Ralph Fiennes. Original franchise lead Cillian Murphy, now an Oscar winner for Oppenheimer, is confirmed to executive produce—and hinted to appear later in the trilogy.

At CinemaCon, Boyle said, I still love an apocalypse, British-style. I still love the infected. And I still love blowing shit up.”

Meanwhile, director Nia DaCosta teased the second sequel, 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, calling it “very different” and creatively liberating.

The Legacy Continues

From the gritty terror of 28 Days Later to the haunting vision of 28 Years Later, this new chapter expands the franchise while holding true to its roots. With advanced visuals, chilling plot twists, and deep social commentary, the rage virus saga evolves for a new generation of horror fans.

If Trailer 2 is any indication, 28 Years Later is set to reignite the apocalyptic horror genre. With the original creative duo at the helm and a powerhouse cast, this is one sequel fans won’t want to miss.
