The kid who used to freestyle on the bus going to elementary school is 30 now. APtheG doesn’t freestyle anymore. He writes and produces his songs, and with more than 30 songs out, now he’s taking his shot at the music place.

He’s coming out with “762,” a hard-charging hip-hop ode to a gun, his history and his ambition. Like most of his music, the song is a story with bits and pieces of his life in it.

 “It was a lot of people talking about different guns. Other people were talking about the switches for the Glocks, and I was like, ‘I can’t get my hands on those because it’s illegal.’”

The switches allow a handgun to become fully automatic. But APtheG had a Draco, a semi-auto that fires the AK 47’s 7.62x39 mm cartridge. Hence, the name of the song, “762.”

Lyrical Chris, the creator of the groundbreaking 5D Rap genre, has just released "Level 5," a track brimming with positivity and high vibrations. The song introduces listeners to a mental and emotional state of being designed to empower and uplift.

When asked about the inspiration for “Level 5,” Lyrical Chris explained, "The idea for the five... it came from my new genre, 5D Rap. It's about being in the fifth dimension, a space of peace and good vibes, where you affirm to yourself that 'I'm never tired. I'm loving the times.' I wanted to create a song that connects people to that heavenly feeling right here on Earth. It’s a song for everyone, no matter who you are, that helps you connect to a higher frequency.”

Flow $tro’s tracks usually have something to talk about, and the subject of his newest song, “Steppin,” featuring Skooly from Rich Kidz, is about the beauty of a woman.

“It’s basically about a female, like I liked the way a female dresses, or like the way she carries herself, the way she puts her clothes on, wearing heels, or switching up out of the heels — steppin’ like that.”

The beat in “Steppin” is slow and dreamy, the melody soft, the vibe like a ballad, even where the lyrics get explicit.

Girl you like this liquor got me on you bad
You know how good you look but you never brag
She ain’t got no make up on
Baby girl don’t need a mask

$tro listened to Skooly’s music when he was first starting out.

They say that if you get knocked down in life, get up, brush yourself off, and try again. This is exactly what Iris Herrera did. Last season on "The Voice" she didn't get the result that she was hoping for when no chairs turned for her for her blind audition. She didn't let that deter her, so she went back home and she worked really hard, using the advice and tips that the judges gave to her.

Here comes season 27, and Iris is back. This time she came prepared, and like a well oiled machine she hit the ground running and stuck the landing. Iris sang "You Are My Sunshine" a classic song, but she slowed down the tempo and using the advice of the coached from last season, she made the song her own, which turned out to be a powerful and extremely impressive performance.
