Wesley Black

RGM RATING (????????)

A captivating hip-hop track with sharp lyrics and calm acoustics.

Perth, Australia-based musical creative, Wesley Black, is an emerging hip-hop artist whose sounds are ever-changing. Under this hard-to-pin style, Black is well known for his sharp lyrics, dynamic vocals, and fierce, hard-hitting deliveries. As his work evolves, Black switches up his “pulsing trap beats and electronic hip-hop production for acoustic guitar.” He adopts a calmer atmosphere to surround his focal points. His old and new style music is available on Spotify, YouTube, and SoundCloud. Wesley Black’s newest drop is the hip-hop single, “King Of The World.” The single is also accompanied by a music video.

Black’s new song centers around its “ode to the lifesaving relationships of his past,” and it does so with sounds fit for royalty. His words hold enough power and sound regal enough to feel like they’re coming from a king. Lyrics like “I keep you by my side till it kills me/but I swear to god, you’re the one who healed me” and “She laying me down and she looked in my eyes/I could sell you the world with no concern for the prize” explore that someone special; additionally, they explain how that person can bring you up, even during your darkest moments. No matter what, the regality never fades for any element of his song; instead, it offers a unique fusion of acoustic sounds and stylish raps to make a royal track. So, stream Wesley Black’s “King Of The World” to feel that royalty yourself.
