Love ballad is your typical breakup song with a new level of added depth. You can hear the conflicted heart and mind of a person that is hurt but still very much loves the person causing the heartbreak. It's the side of loving and losing someone that we don't like to talk about. A limbo of sorts, where all we are trying to do is make it to the next day, in the hopes that it will be less painful than the day before. We want something to numb the pain but we don't want to spiral into something worse. There are layers to love. "Vibe Wit Us". -The Folx

"Substance, an actor and Hip-Hop artist from New Jersey, and Leigh, a folk-soul singer and guitar player from North Carolina, met in December 2015 in Washington D.C. while working at a restaurant. In March of 2016 they discovered that they both shared a passion for music and were both songwriters. Right then and there the two made a decision to collaborate together despite being virtual strangers, not having heard each other's music, nor being in similar genres. A few weeks later the two met up to share music and the musical chemistry was undeniable. That day 'THE FOLX' was born. The following week they were in the studio recording their first EP "BEING", which will be released July 28th 2016. This unlikely duo has created their own unique genre they like to call "folk-hop." This mix of acoustic folk and hip-hop beats, blended with thought-provoking lyrics will leave your mind and ears amazed and hungry for more.
