Whenever you hear about Florida, there’s some malarky about our state. Despite what Charlagmne Tha God says about us Floridians, we aren’t all crazy. Every day there's some controversy because the governor has done something that has upset everyone. I can speak for everyone when I say we need a break from that.
Of course we’re known for all of the tourist attractions, but we have great music talent here as well. The following are three artists that you might already know. But if not, get familiar.
2021 is a new year, right? Well, it's time to get some new artists on your playlists, and there's a flavor for every type of person.
1. Love Dorsey
For all my lyrical junkies, there's Love Dorsey, who hails from St. Petersburg, Florida. That's the same city as Rod Wave for those who aren't familiar. Love Dorsey is a female artist who doesn't rap about her body parts all the time. This chick can actually rock the mic. Her style resembles Rah Digga or Mia X — women rappers who used to go as hard as any man. Y'all are gonna be so happy when you add her to your playlists.
2. Tierra Traniece
The next artist is Tierra Traniece, who is a raptress as well. She hails from Miami, Florida. Her style is so unique. It’s a nice mixture of trap soul, Jill Scott and Erykah Badu. I felt all the vibes while listening to her tracks. “Fool Me Once” is a single that spoke to my spirit!
3. Nemchel
Last, but certainly not least, there's Nemchel, who's a Haitian-born artist from Vero Beach, Florida. She plays three instruments — talk about talent! Some artists can only make one type of music, but she can sing just about anything. If you look her up, "Don't Feel Right" is a track that will give you all the feels. She switches it up with another track, "Need It," which is a get money anthem. Everyone needs a little motivation while they're on their way to work. The two songs perfectly illustrates her versatility as an artist.
Florida is bustling with talent, and being a native, it’s disheartening that no one gives my home state the respect it deserves. I hope you enjoy the selections I’ve provided you with.
