After a slew of successful tour runs, hit singles, and mass recognition, TH3RD BRAIN’s freshest signees Thutmose and NoMBe have teamed up to drop their rock-fusion single, “Run Wild.” Upbeat and out-of-the-box, this dynamic framework of sounds and space was picked up as the official anthem for the FIFA 2018 World Cup Trailer. Combining two polar, yet amicable genres, “Run Wild” yields thunderous rock cadences courtesy of the pop-rock prodigy NoMBe, while simultaneously manipulating Thut’s high-energy verses as the track unfolds. Both Thutmose and NoMBe are revered for their humble, kind, and open energy that directly translates into their craft. Their close colleague-ship worked in harmony on “Run Wild,” as their synchronicity never skips a beat. Both Thutmose and NoMBe have solidified themselves as 2018’s most exciting artists to watch. Dripping with a signature swagger, “Run Wild” is on its way to becoming a classic.
THUTMOSE - KARMA (FEAT. ALEX MALI)
Music, Original MixCommentOnce upon a time ya boy went to a sacred place called the good ole Hollywood Bowl for a show with the one and only Pete Tong. We were there to rock out to some of the most classic Ibiza dance records accompanied by the epic Heritage orchestra. Funny enough I hear Pete announce "Please welcome Thutmose to the stage!" I looked around and was like whattt?? Is that Thutmose I heard? I had been hearing murmurings about this up and coming rapper, but was definitely surprised to see him take that kind of stage. He performed flawlessly, and I knew it was time to check out what all this Thut is about. Today I'm bringing you his latest, a soulful rendezvous of bobbing bass and laid back vibes. Thut gets rockin on the track both singing and rapping in between Alex Mali's delicately yearning vocals. This ones a chill jam and I think you're gonna love it.
THUTMOSE - BLAME
Music, Original MixCommentLA-based artist management group, TH3RD BRAIN houses relations for artists like ZHU, Krewella, and Gallant- noteworthy acts to say the least. But, the collective brakes for musicians who are still on the come up as well. TH3RD BRAIN's latest addition is Thutmose, the Nigerian-born, NYC-living hustler who is blazing trails for the entire community of not only hip-hop, but the world of art entirely. His latest track, "Blame" is a bump that is platinum-worthy- capitalizing on a mainstream, hip-hop cadence while remaining novel and distinct. Combining production fit for the world of dance music, and seductive, rhythmic rhymes, "Blame" chews you up and spits you out, fiercely. His presence is dominating, and certain. The world of rap goes to the beat of its own drum, as high-profile rappers are redefining it's aesthetic and sound every moment, of every day. But leaving a legacy in that community is challenging. Thutmose, on the other hand, is humbly taking the throne as one of the best young rappers in the game right now. He uses bold production, and delivers lines clearly, and consciously. "Blame" is only a stepping stone in what will be a long career for the rapper- watch this space.
THUTMOSE - STILL I RISE
Music, Original MixCommentHip hop and electronic music go together like cookies and cream. Having both grown out of the disco music and early DJs and beat makers of the 70s and 80s, it's no surprise. On Brooklyn rapper Thutmose's new track "Still I Rise" he sings catchy driving hooks and spits rhythmic verses over a chugging house beat that nicely blends a classic four-on-the-floor beat with contemporary ethereal production elements (word has it that it was produced by Emmit Fenn). Lyrically it's a pump-up anthem about being "in it to win it" and pushing on with your dreams despite others trying to keep you down—which is part of the reason it was chosen it was chosen to be used as a sports anthem on national television by the MLB Network this season. Looking forward to watching the rise of this young and talented new artist.
