]]> DMV’s Jewel creates vividly dark fantasy with “Tell Me.” There’s no denying that “Tell Me” contains all the elements necessary for a successful party-type drug ballad. A melodic hook, low baseline, soothingly cryptic vocals, and a signature verse from DC’s Beau Young Prince, “Tell Me” propels the Maryland songstress from anonymity to an artist whose proving herself through the music. While “Tell Me” acts as an ode to late nights and party life, the track’s feeling is that of a new-wave love song; a modern take on discovering fleeting affection in the most transient of times. “Tell me would you mind if I take a trip/Put it on your tongue it’s gonna get you lit” and “Tell me if it’s cool if your friend came too/Fu*k a plus one, it’s a plus two.” are delivered infectiously; a slow-flo delivery that’s en route to becoming a staple in Jewels artistry. Only her second release, Jewel’s vocal quality and songwriting ability are beyond expectations and with BYP’s catchy wordplay rounding out the record, try telling me Jewel isn’t a diamond in the rough.

]]> Dream Crown EP

The Dream is moving in a new direction this year, taking a sophisticated approach with the upcoming EP titled Crown. The streets have been waiting quite some time for a concrete project to emerge, so with a set date in place, we now anticipate something special from the diverse emcee.

Dropping April 14th, the eight-track mixtape has only made room for Grand Hustle’s T.I. and will consist of no additional features. There is clearly a distinct theme to the production, reflected through the classic cover art, and of course the Jewel EP that will be reaching us in the nearby future.

Check out the finalized track list below and the exclusive cover art for Crown:

1. Prime
2. That’s My Sh*t (Feat. T.I.)
3. All I Need
4. Fruition
5. Throw It Back
6. Royalty
7. ‘Cedes Benz
8. 90s Love

The Dream - Crown
