  Langer’s journey into the world of songwriting began when he decided to form a band with a couple of his schoolmates. He dove into a furious exploration of the guitar, immersing himself in the iconic sounds of 90s rock and grunge. Soon enough, his musical tastes grew to encompass jazz and experimental rock. It was a journey that led him to appreciate the conceptual ideas behind the music as much as their sonic manifestations.  As he continues down the winding path of a musician infatuated with his craft, the culmination of his musical journey is marked by this labor of love and determination, borne out of sheer will and appreciation for the arts. Langer’s fusion of genres, blending classic rock, punk, and even elements of jazz, bears witness to an artist unafraid to explore and transcend boundaries.

Music Review “Big Dreams”- Rice By Yami Cabrera


Music Review “Big Dreams”- Rice 
By Yami Cabrera
[English]
The multi-faceted artist Jerard Rice aka Rice is promoting his latest production “Big Dreams”. Rice is a rapper and music entrepreneur, co-founder and collaborator of the Hustle Work Grind Records label with his brother M-Ezy, who has decided to release his first two songs in 2020.
“Big dreams” has a catchy and attractive groove, a mix of aclassic Hip Hop sound with a very peculiar modern air. The lyrics are direct and revealing; close to the social context that characterizes North American urban music.
The song also has an audiovisual accompaniment with the collaboration of other artists from the urban music scene such as IDK, Cheese, The Royal Highness, and J-Muzique. The videographic sample is very illustrative and perfectly portrays the content of the song. The video reflects clear actions linked to illegal sales, drugs, as well as injustices against African American youth.
In addition, Rice is currently involved in activist struggles against racism and injustice in the United States, especially through the #blacklivesmatter movement. His art is his best weapon in this fight. Rice recognizes that music is the best ally to connect with other people and therefore it has to have a special purpose and meaning.
"Big Dreams" along with Rice´s first single "Bet On it" could be part of their future EP Riding No BlindfoldsThe rapper is also preparing another song dedicated to the life of Tupac Shakur and based on the movie Juice.
Rice appears to be on the right track for a successful career. Let's hope that the next releases have much more to say about this rapper and producer.
