Not everyone who smiles in your face is in your corner.
This isn’t the playground version of “Friends.” This is what happens when the fake ones vanish, the real ones bleed, and the courts expose everyone’s true loyalty.

🎶 Built on the legendary Whodini hook, this remix flips nostalgia into a modern betrayal anthem breaking down what it really means to have someone in your corner when the heat hits.

💉 One gave him a kidney.
📉 The rest gave him excuses.
And now? Names don’t need to be said  they know who they are.

This is spoken loyalty.
This is circle-check music.
This is the reminder that blood, not vibes, defines a real friend.

🔁 Share this if you lost fake friends in real trials.
💬 Tag your one ride-or-die.
📎 Save if your loyalty’s been tested  and you came out cleaner.

A fresh take on a familiar theme, this remix infuses new energy into the concept of friendship, blending nostalgic elements with contemporary beats. A hard-hitting, introspective courtroom-style rap remix from Blacklatino, representing Brooklyn/Bushwick  and bridging Black and Latino truths through hi-fi East Coast lyricism. “F.R.I.E.N.D.S” exposes the fake love, shallow favors, and silent betrayals disguised as friendship. Produced with a gritty violin-driven beat and sharp drums, this track is Soul + Survival. Released in collaboration with SourceLine Mediai.

F.R.I.E.N.D.S (SourceLine Remix) Inspired by Whodini

A prophetic street sermon in poetic form.
This isn't just music — it's a final warning.
🔥 Based on Christian eschatology, this track explores the rapture, hell, and eternal separation from God.
🎙️ Written and performed by BlackLatino — this is the last message before the sky breaks.
📖 Inspired by 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17, Matthew 25:46, and 2 Thessalonians 1:9.

"I don't want claps. I want convictions. I want souls to wake up." 

👉 “If the Rapture happened today, would you be ready?”
👉 “Is Hell real? Play this track then decide.”

This Will Happen Walk Through Rapture (The Architect Edition)

🔥 If I Were the Devil (Samuel’s Files Remix)
Lyrics by: Samuel  Bushwick-grown
🕯️ Narrated in the voice of Paul Harvey meets Biggie's ghost
🎙️ Presented by the UnpluggedMale Banner

📻 What if the devil didn’t wear horns — but a badge, a black robe, or a court order?
In this unapologetic remix, Samuel flips the Paul Harvey classic into a grimy, prophetic NYC street sermon, laced with truth bombs and courtroom scars.

🎧 Imagine Biggie’s “My Downfall” meets a family court exposé — over a soul-sampled organ loop with thunder in the drums.
This is gospel for the ghosted fathers, legal warfare in rhyme, and a message for every man buried alive by paperwork, false claims, and public opinion.

✊ This track is not for everyone.
It’s for the ones who got dragged through the mud and still stood tall with receipts in hand.
It’s not a diss — it’s documentation.

About this Track:
If I were the Devil, I wouldn’t come in flames. I’d come in a courtroom suit, whispering justice with a smile.
This ain't just music. This is a warning.
Samuel flips Paul Harvey’s old-school radio style with that Brooklyn grit and prophetic venom.

Over an organ-drenched, thumping beat, this track goes all in on broken courts, ghost fathers, and the modern war on men.
If you a father who fought to see your kids, this one’s for you.
If you got silenced while lies got amplified, turn this ALL THE WAY UP.
This is truth on beat. And the devil ain’t ready.  (Inspired by by Paul Harvey’s old-school radio style)

If I were the Devil

🎧 “Breathe Before the War”
By Samuel 
Presented by UnpluggedMale

This ain’t rage. It’s preparation.

🎤 A modern-day war hymn for the ones who held their tongue while the world threw dirt.
This track is tension. Stillness. That deep breath before all hell breaks loose.

🌩️ Think Phil Collins’ “In the Air Tonight”  if it was raised in Bushwick, trained in trauma, and baptized in silence.

This is the moment right before the roar.
Right before you remind them you never folded  you observed.

🩸 For the loyal ones who got burned.
🧠 For the thinkers who became fighters.
💨 For the silent who learned how to breathe before striking.

This is that deep inhale before vengeance breathes fire.
A cinematic track wrapped in thunderous drums and gospel refrains. Samuel delivers poetic rage and raw reflection in “Breathe Before the War,” fusing scripture, street pain, and spiritual warfare into a street sermon.
For the fighters. For the betrayed. For the ones who breathe before they strike.

“Breathe Before the War” Inspired by "In The Air Tonight"

“What Happened to Hip-Hop?” is a lyrical wake-up call — a bold question shot from the heart of Bushwick to every speaker on the planet. BlackLatino delivers sharp, conscious bars about the state of modern rap culture: from lost messages to misguided idols, sexual exploitation to intellectual neglect. It’s not a diss — it’s a demand for revival.

This track reminds us why hip-hop was born: not for flexes, but for freedom.
Not for clout, but for clarity.
Not for chaos — but for change.

🎙️ "Be the change, set the tone — make the culture truly our own."

What Happened to Hip Hop

“Bushwick Ain’t Bushwick” is a lyrical gut punch.

BlackLatino and Da Sniper take you back to the real Brooklyn  steel drum fires, fiends on the floor, roaches in the straps  before the brunch spots, and kombucha crept in.

This track is for those who remember when Putnam Street was a war zone, not a zip code trend. It’s a call-out, a time capsule, and a warning:

"They said it’s safer now… but for who?"

🎙️ “You rent that loft with ‘exposed brick charm’  but that brick held weight, blood, and alarm.”

Bushwick Ain t Bushwick

BlackLatino delivers a powerful boom bap street sermon exposing how Bushwick was sold off while Gen X was left in the dark. Politicians posed for ribbon-cuttings while eviction notices hit mailboxes. 

This track puts truth on the table with M.O.P-style fire and soul sample grace.

🎙️ "Bushwick got sold with a smirk and a check, and nobody warned Gen X what was next."

If you grew up watching your neighborhood disappear one bar, bike lane, and lease at a time, this one’s for you.

And There Was Someone ( Replying to Missy Firecracker) Remix

“I Need to Know” is a raw, cinematic confession wrapped in a modern pop ballad. With haunting piano, sweeping strings, and a vocal that aches with honesty, this track dives into the emotional wreckage of love on the edge of betrayal.
It’s not about jealousy.
It’s about truth.
It’s about the courage to ask the question that could break you because living in the dark hurts more.
💔 “Don’t keep it quiet just to comfort me… I’d rather hurt than live a lie.”
For fans of Dean Lewis, James Arthur, and Lewis Capaldi, this track blends vulnerability with power, building from soft verses to a soaring, layered chorus that refuses to be ignored.
