Sylvan LaCue feat. Rayana Jay – Televised [Audio]

Sylvan LaCue shares a self-produced new track called “Televised”. “Making this song for me was all about challenging myself & the listener to think about the type of change we want in these times,” LaCue told HNHH over email. “Between the killings, riots, protests, & the presidency, I think were starting to seek healing & real change within our country & communities. But the variables are vast, including ourselves, & we have to be real with ourselves. Do you want a revolution? Is that what were on the brink of? Because if so, the revolution will never be televised, & we play a part in our need for change just as much as the powers that be.” Listen below.

Sylvan LaCue feat. Xavier Omär – The Truman Show [Audio]

Sylvan LaCue returns with a new one called “The Truman Show”. “I always thought it was interesting how determined [Truman] was to explore and see the world and yet, how alone he felt amongst a world of people who were seemingly ‘there for him,’” LaCue told Pigeons & Planes. “[The song is] about being aware of your comfort zone and choosing to step out of it. Regardless of the obstacles thrown in front of you to prevent it.” Listen below.

Caleborate feat. Pell & Sylvan LaCue – Options [Audio]

Since breaking onto the scene last year, Caleborate has a lot more “options” in life than ever before. After his 2015 project Hella Good put the Bay Area rapper on everyone’s radar on the West coast, Caleborate is back to prove he won’t stop until he reaches the top. His brand new record “Options” is just a glimpse into his forthcoming album 1993. “It’s my birth year,” Caleborate said in an email. “I personally think that being born in that generation ’90-95 is a pretty special time to be born in because we got to experience life pre-cell phone, but we also came of age when technology became an inseparable part of our everyone’s everyday lives.” In “Options,” the 23-year-old emcee relives the inner struggles a majority of rising artists in the industry go through during their come-up. “All my life been setbacks / ain’t gon give in or accept that / I got options like Cam Newton or Steph Curry with the stepback,” Caleborate raps. Florida rapper Sylvan LaCue and Pell also come through to throw down bars on the Cal-A produced single. via VIBE
