DLUX Releases New Mixtape “No Filters” Hosted by DJ Khaled
The Milwaukee native DLUX receives a huge co-sign from We The Best Music Group CEO DJ Khaled. The momentum created from his first single “Bomb Bomb” featuring Ace Hood, gave the R&B sensation the ability to reach out and collaborate with artists such as Trae The Truth, K Camp, Paul Wall, and more. “No Filters” Chapter 1 exposes his singing talent, versatility, and hunger; which are essentials needed for a successful career. DJ Khaled saw the talent and hustle and quickly jumped on board. The drive DLUX possess comes from betrayal, physical, and spiritual torture.
DJ Khaled is backing DLUX 100% by using phrases such as, “the new voice of R&B”, “DLUX bringing you that 100% R&B Sh**”, and “DLUX keep winning”. DLUX has been singing and performing for over a decade. DLUX’s story is amazing, he is a miracle child and God has a purpose for him on this Earth. While his mother was carrying him in her womb she tried to induce a miscarriage by throwing herself down a flight of stairs. At the age of two social services took him from his mother due to unfit living conditions. DLUX bounced from foster home to foster home and lived with school teachers on occasion. As DLUX matured he would be around his mother from time to time but she would not support his talent. When he would sing she would tell him to shut up, beat him, but would take the credit if someone else complimented him. The beatings he would go through were offset by the abuse she would suffer from her boyfriends.
DLUX was able to hone his skills by competing in black history programs, talent shows, and any other opportunity to showcase his talents. DLUX’s passion and drive come from his three little sisters that are currently staying with his mother. Two of them sleep on chairs pushed together and one sleeps on the kitchen table. DLUX’s career took a boost when he connected with Traxx Sanders, a songwriter from the music duo “The Bad Guys”. The chemistry was undeniable and when they added DJ Pain 1’s sound to the mix, they knew they had something special. Shortly they caught the attention of Mel Smith from All In Music and the rest was history. DLUX is proving that he is 2014’s new R&B prince and plans to stay.

Imagine how hard it is for some people to be true to themselves. However, there’s a new song called “KILL” by Benjamin Lewis that’s all about being authentic.
Essentially, a powerful Hip-Hop tune that speaks out against the societal pressures that try to make us all fit into the same mold. With this in mind, the up-and-coming singer urges listeners not to let anyone else tell them who to be.
Besides, this adds some important context to the eye-catching music video as it captures the feeling of being trapped and limited in our actions or decisions. Without a doubt, viewers will notice the entire clip serves as a great metaphor that can be quite relatable in these times.
Of course, it’s impossible to hear “KILL” and not think about Benjamin Lewis’ upcoming stories transformed into songs. Actually, this is the second single of his next four-track EP.
Versatility is his best letter of presentation, therefore, you can expect different genres of music through each jam. Also, the way he portrays his personal struggles and sensibilities to a creative level is worthy of admiration.
In conclusion, whenever someone tries to tell you what to wear, what to say, and even how to act, let your authenticity be the song you sing out loud and never give up to advocate for diversity.

Louisiana-born rapper D$AVAGE shares a fresh Hip-Hop track titled “Pain.” The song, inspired by real-life experiences, touches on a dark drug world theme that is both introspective and thought-provoking.
“Pain” is straight fire! The sick piano melody, catchy beats, and dope rhymes will get you hooked right from the start. Of course, it’s no surprise it’s already got over 20k streams on Spotify.
In my opinion, I really like how D$AVAGE poured his heart out on this one, taking you on a trip down memory lane and keeping it real with no filter.
With a raw and agile flow, D$AVAGE showcases his ability to craft unique wordplay. Moreover, he doesn’t shy away from the realities of the streets, and instead, embraces them in a way that is relatable.
The highly anticipated ‘007 The Mixtape’ by D$AVAGE features “Pain” as its debut single, making it a crucial jam to check out. Undoubtedly, a tune that can be easily described as meaningful and musically appealing.
Beyond his reflective prose, it seems he seamlessly switches between different tempos and tones, showing his versatility as an artist. And like many of you, I’m also eagerly awaiting his next releases.
