Tom Goss – “Not My Problem”

Tom Goss is publicly and comically washing his hands in “Not My Problem,” the second single from his ninth studio album, Remember What It Feels Like. The pop/rock banger is based on Tom’s true-life five-year relationship with a very impressive Englishman who was not all who he appeared to be. “I fell in love with a charming but criminal con man who is now in prison,” Goss says, explaining a painful experience in which he was gaslighted and manipulated into believing that it was his responsibility to help heal a man that he loved. “When his lies were finally exposed, I realized that the vast majority of his problems were fabricated to control and take advantage of me.”

“He still writes me on a regular basis,” Goss reveals from his Los Angeles home. “I have a year and a half of letters from a British prison in my house. I don’t read them, but I don’t throw them away either. It’s weird.”

While the video is campy and comical, its message is a serious one. “It’s a declaration that my ex and his lies did not and will not break me. I’m resilient and strong and I will continue to believe in people and be a positive force in the world.” 

Tom Goss’s “Not My Problem” is available on Spotify and all digital platforms.

Geo Jordan – “Journey” EP

“Journey” is Geo’s first instrumental-only release, paying homage to his early beginnings as an Electronic Instrumental producer. The EP is intended to be listened to in one sitting, with gapless playback. The new 4-track EP features alternative, dance, dub, ambient, and two-step electronica influences.

Mixing organic textures, electronic instruments and samples with a futurist edge, punchy drums and minimal vocals creating forward-facing electronic music brimming with soulful eclectic influence, with sonics very much at home alongside artists such as Machinedrum, Jimmy Edgar and Bonobo.


“I wanted to capture the energy of the instrumental music I used to release years ago before anything kicked off, I’ve always loved making instrumental records, and it’s a big part of what I listen to still. Most of my productions with vocals start as instrumentals that I build upon. I’m in a frame of mind of releasing more music purely for wanting to share the vibes and joy it brings me. My music and taste isn’t restricted by genre as I listen to literally everything, so this release marks the start of sharing more of the wide breadth of music that I love, when I want and more often under my solo alias.”

Kayne the Lovechild – “Banjee Girls”

Bronx native and genre-bending artist Kayne the Lovechild is a true testament to artistry. His ability to channel his world and let it be embodied within his music speaks volumes to his journey. 

Kayne’s newest single and music video, “Banjee Girls” directed by Katie Paul is a love letter to all the women and femme presenting people in his life as well as an ode to ballroom culture. This visual masterpiece features legendary global club legend Kevin Aviance and turns a Brooklyn supermarket into a full ball embellished by voguers and exquisite style only a true New Yorker could exude. 

An advocate for diversity, inclusion and love, Kayne the Lovechild is becoming an indomitable creative force putting listeners in touch with their own feelings. “I’m not here to fit into anyone’s box. There’s so much beauty in being yourself; everybody is different and special. When we realize and accept that, we can be better people, for ourselves, others and humankind as a whole.”

FLETCHER – “Pretending”

“Over the years, I’ve looked for the antidote in so many things: women, the road, the stage, fans, spirituality and self-reflection,” says FLETCHER. “Making this album was an excavation, a deep dive where I asked myself what would truly heal me, and my ultimate realization was that love is the antidote.

“Pretending” is the most recent single from her album, “In Search of the Antidote.”

“‘Pretending’ is about having that person at the back of your mind who makes you keep wondering, ‘Is it going to be us that end up together one day?’”
