“People have long pointed out a darkness in some of my songwriting – “owning it,” as my therapist likes to say! – and I’ve only recently realized that it’s Ozzy himself whose lyrical voice really helped pave the way for embracing such psychological sincerity through (my) music.”
He added: “Seems neither of us knew any other way – only difference is I’ve never bitten into a bat, snorted ants, or p*ssed on the Alamo…
“As for the Ozzy selection? I was really tempted to go with lesser-known near-and-dear-to-my-heart favorites (“Old L.A. Tonight,” or the late-career gem “Ordinary Man”), but truth be told, I do in this case feel just as deeply moved by that which is most widely known: “Mama, I’m Coming Home.”

Nigerian-American Artist Kate Odulukwe is making a bold declaration on her new single titled “Ezewa” a word she coined for herself based on the word “Eze” which means “king” in Igbo.

Drawing inspiration from the likes of Burna Boy, Tiwa Savage and Rema, Kate’s self-assurance takes center stage on the track.
According to Kate, her sound embodies a new era of Afrobeats charged by Afro-diasporic music. It’s a fusion that’s become her signature—mixing global sounds with a strong cultural voice.
The accompanying music video further celebrates herself as well the combination of her New York background and Nigerian heritage.
Produced by frequent collaborator, JPRiZM, the album delves into the core of the human experience, touching on themes of love, community, and self-discovery.
The word “enyi” means “friend” in the Igbo language of Nigeria. The Nigerian-American Echezona (Onwuama) is a multi-lingual singer, rapper, and songwriter who grew up in the Dorchester neighborhood of Boston.
Raised by Nigerian immigrant parents, Echezona is a Son of Africa and a Son of America. His artistry reflects his multicultural exposures and is a fusion of afrofusion, R&B, soul, hip hop, and afrobeat. Fluent in lgbo (the native language of his parents), Echezona is a living embodiment of a blend of cultural influences. When growing up, Nigerian music played in his home while hip hop was his influence in the inner-city streets.
Echezona explains: “These 9 records come straight from the heart. They were written to feel like a friend sitting next to you, sharing stories of raw honesty and openness. Through these songs, we wanted to celebrate the strength and beauty of the everywoman, embrace the richness of African culture, and spark a sense of togetherness.
Echezona further explains the meaning behind “Flaws” as an example. “Flaws” is a testament to overcoming defeats and failures and accepting that no one can expect perfection, even oneself. Personally, I remember feeling horrible after flunking a driving test one day but after I got over the disappointment, I tried again and passed. That experience inspired me to write “Flaws”. We all have been there with something; all have had to face a shortcoming or some adversity. When we’re going through something like that, it can be tough. But eventually we need to uplift ourselves, and at times we all need to be uplifted by another. I just want to see everyone win at whatever they’re pursuing.”
Producer/collaborator JPRiZM elaborates about Ényì: “At their core, these records carry themes of love, community, and making a difference in each other’s lives. It’s about communicating with and feeling for one another. Ényì speaks to the joys and the challenges we face in life. Several years in the making, we’ve been creating and storing many songs in the vault. We just felt it was the right time now to release to the world what we’ve been creating. We’re pleased with the spectrum of music and storytelling that this album represents. There’s music to be enjoyed by everyone.”
The pianist’s and songwriter’s release features four original songs and a fresh take on a Jim Croce classic.
Horton is releasing one song a month from the EP, starting in April, with the last song being released in August.
Leading the EP is Set “Me Free”, a song born from personal transformation and letting go. “I’m grateful for my divorce,” Horton says. “Without it, I’d never have written “Set Me Free”, which is about loving someone enough to let them go.”

The EP also includes “Operator”, a reimagined version of Jim Croce’s 1972 classic. “As a songwriter, I never thought I’d cover someone else,” Horton says, “but I wanted to bring something new to this song.”
“Never Know Why” is a passionate duet with Vesper Stockwell, Horton’s musical collaborator and partner. The EP closes with a reworked version of Space and Time, Horton’s 2023 single about someone asking for space as a way of ending a relationship.
Imperfections follows The Tokyo Sessions, a four-song EP of Japanese music written by Horton, who is bilingual, while living in Tokyo. That project will be promoted in Japan starting in mid-2025.

“Brave New World” the debut single by American virtual artist Jonny Bitcoin, is a rhythmic, thought-provoking song that takes a swing at financial crises, centralized control, and the rise of Bitcoin.
With sharp rhymes and a rebellious tone, it calls out the magical money-printing machines, the never-ending debt party, and the “trust us, we got this” attitude of traditional banking.
Meanwhile, Bitcoin steps in like the mysterious new kid in town, a savior? A gamble? Just another illusion?
And when the system crumbles (because, well… history), the song leaves you with one simple yet haunting question: “Who do you trust?” Smart, catchy, and slightly ironic, it’s the perfect soundtrack for watching the world changing (hopefully for the better), preferably while stacking Bitcoin.
“Brave New World” is a dystopian novel by Aldous Huxley, written in 1931, that painted a future where control doesn’t come from force, but from pleasure. No dictators, no oppression, just endless distractions, dopamine hits, and a society too entertained to care. People were conditioned to love their servitude, to trade freedom for comfort, and to avoid anything that might make them think too hard. No need for censorship when no one reads. No need for rebellion when no one feels deprived. Huxley warned us about a world where truth drowns in irrelevance. Look around. Were we paying attention?

Why Johnny Bitcoin Matters

Boston-based Afrobeats artist, Echezona is teaming up with producer and frequent collaborator, JPRiZM, on new single “Make Up Your Mind”
The soulful track that delves into the complexities of decision-making in relationships.
Inspired by personal experiences, Echezona’s heartfelt lyrics explore the tension between emotional vulnerability and self-preservation.
With a melodic blend of English and Igbo language, which Echezona describes as a melodic language, the song’s soothing tones and catchy hook make it a standout addition to the duo’s musical repertoire, promising a memorable listening experience for fans of diverse genres.
Echezona who recently opened for Oxlade, describes the chemistry between the two of them as “phenomenal”
“We might start a song either with the music or with the lyrics.
JPRiZM might play some music for Echezona or Echezona may come into the studio with a lyrical idea and melody.”
Their collaboration began in Boston, where they first crossed paths during a project for the ‘Boston Rise’ initiative.
Over the years, Echezona’s versatile artistry has blossomed under JPRiZM’s guidance, blending afrobeat, hip hop, SOUL, and R&B influences into a unique sound that resonates with audiences.
“We’ve known each other for about seven years. We first met in Boston Massachusetts where we both live,” Echezona recalls.
“We first worked together on a project led by JPRiZM and his partner for a Boston youth initiative called ‘Boston Rise’ that was grant funded by a program called Live Arts Boston.”
At the time they met in 2018, Echezona was almost exclusively a rapper. Working with JPRiZM helped tap into Echezona’s singing ability and in producing Echezona. JPRIZM worked with Echezona in developing a unique blend of afrobeat, hip hop infused with SOUL R&B.
“Don’t get me wrong, Echezona loves to flex as a rapper & has the bars to do so, which he shows off every now and then,” JPRiZM explains.
“But primarily, he’s focused now on singing and songwriting to tell his story. We’ve got tons in the vault to share”
JPRiZM notes that while he loves to listen to classics by Sade and Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, their music is not not influenced by any particular artist or song.
“We write music which we truly feel is unique. We don’t start a song with a preconceived notion of the endgame. We’re focused on making that song the best it can be as a unique creation. We’re evolving the music as we journey into the song. We both are music heads and music lovers. I had been listening to some Sade for to relax and to catch vibes as well as Fela Kuti but I can’t say that those are the absolute specific artists this record is inspired by, our music is a collective of all our musical influences over our lifetimes up to this point whether that is afrobeat, SOUL, R&B, jazz, pop, edm, and great storytelling.”
“This particular song, though, is influenced by a woman who had been disinterested in me and was no longer around,” Echezona explains.
“Then she came back around and wanted to come back into my life suddenly. While I still had feelings for her, I needed some time to get re-familiarize and re-adjusted to the idea of her being part of my life again.”
“So, I asked her if we could take things slow. She was in a hurry and wanted me to make up my mind quickly. That’s what inspired the song, her saying ‘make up your mind.”
Echezona had a lot to look forward to as he will be performing extensively at various colleges in the Boston area and on the west coast such as University of Southern California.
