As we discover Tampa-based creative SoReal, it is clearer and clearer that he’s not your average hip-hop artist. The talented American creative appears to be enjoying a wider pool of influences, moving his music into an eclectic direction. While the project does find its roots in nostalgic hip-hop elements, SoReal then adds a cinematic flavouring on top of it all, also attaching the music to a more holistic audio-visual experience.‘Glass Hearts (Act II)’ is the perfect evidence of that.
If on the surface the single can be seen as a melodic and kinetic hip-hop cut, there’s a great deal of melodism and evocative allure in it, all qualities that work very well in the context of the SoReal Cinematic Musicverse, “a story-driven universe blending music, film, and visual storytelling.” The visuals and story for ‘Glass Hearts (Act II)’ are available now on YouTube.
Delving deeper into the nuanced ethos that propels the record, SoReal explains: “‘Glass Hearts (ACT II)’ continues the ‘Through My Eyes’ series, blending cinematic visuals with introspective storytelling. The track focuses on emotional vulnerability and internal conflict, delivered through a more atmospheric and non-traditional hip-hop structure.” We appreciate the experimental and forward-thinking drive behind the project.
