All I seem to hear anymore is lyrics about having sex or doing drugs…it gets to be repetitive and annoying after a while. Not many artists embrace this mindset, especially in Rap music.
It’s not cool to always be talking about: ‘Oh, this week I fucked 14 girls and I’ve $50,000 in my back pocket.’ That shit is lame to me.” PC: BILLBOARD “I remember when Chance tweeted: ‘ I can’t wait until it’s cool to be a good person again.’All of a sudden it’s strange that I love life, that I want to be loved. In an interview with The Guardian‘s Harriet Gibsone, Raury talks about his “hippy”-like philosophy and the message behind his music. You wouldn’t think a 19 year old would preach messages of loving the earth and loving eachother, but the Georgia-based musician sure does stick to the theme that matches the title of his debut record, All We Need. From The Neighbourhood’s “Warm” to the artist’s own “Devil’s Whisper”, the 19 year old artist captivated me with complex melodies about the earth, society, love, and other topics that may coincide with various situations occurring in our society today. I had heard the name ‘Raury’ pop up in many different songs in the past year.
