Fresh off dropping their banger of a single, “Moderation” off their debut EP, WTF: We The Four, Hip-Hop power group Four Finger Ring return to deliver visuals for their powerful new single, “Beautiful Lies.”

Produced by Skortix, “Beautiful Lies” pulls you in from the first beat and keeps you locked-in throughout. Group members Nu3tron, C4mula, Mic Moses and DJ Zole deliver a track that is both dark and brutally honest, as they attempt to reveal the truth of what it’s like to live in the orbit of someone battling with addiction and depression, along with the lies, anger and heartbreak that come with the territory.

Nu3tron opens with with his deliberately brooding verses which give way to C4mula’s more uptempo, smooth rhymes which reflect on the good moments and what could have been, followed by Mic Moses’ rapid fire delivery of trying to hold on, but having to let go. The hook brings the track back down to a simmer, as the song prepares to begin another cycle from the three emcees, analogous to the behavioral patterns of someone dealing with addiction and depression. And although the message can seem harsh, it’s accurate in its depiction of how we often fail to save those that we love, regardless of how much support we offer.

Directed by Wackoe, the video conveys the struggles of a depressed addict, in a way that closely mimics the song’s lyrics. To tie the song concept to the bigger picture, the video concludes with the following important message: “Globally more than 30 million people around the world currently suffer from some form of depression. If you, or someone you know is suffering…there is help…” along with contact details for organizations that can truly help.

It’s been suggested that having a wide range of musical styles can create a disadvantage in building your fan base. “They” say your fans don’t know who you are or what you are about. “They” say your audience won’t know what to expect. “They” say that you’ll alienate the genre purists. But Four Finger Ring doesn’t care what “they” have to say. Consisting of Nu3tron, C4mula, Mic Moses and DJ Zole, Four Finger Ring has cracked the code in shifting in between the worlds of Hip-Hop and Rock, blending the two genres into a sound that has fans hyped to guess what comes next.

Fresh off the momentum of four singles, powerful videos and their debut EP, We The Four, Four Finger Ring now turns a spotlight on the era of the ego-driven artist with “Moderation.” A bass heavy track with sparing flows rooted firmly in Hip-Hop, “Moderation” uses its rolling beats to call out the trials of navigating the traps of fame and fortune while trying to hold on to who you are and what you stand for. In an era where every public image is curated to be perfect and a person’s soul can be lost in the chase for fame, “Moderation” uses its raw verses to deliver honest look at the reality of chasing the dream.

Nu3tron, C4mula, Mic Moses and DJ Zole have come together and blended their own unique styles into a new take on hip hop and rock…Four Finger Ring is power group for the new age. Give the track a stream right here, courtesy of RESPECT.
