The origins of the track 'Flirt' begin with a jam session before a Reproduce Listening Room Session in Kolkata. Angana Ghosh, a Kolkata based singer and The Mellow Turtle aka Rishabh Lohia from Ranchi, began jamming and eventually the track ended up being part of Angana's set. After the performance, they both along with Tre Ess and National Animal developed the set further and did a 3 city tour, culminating with a performance in Ranchi. In Ranchi, Angana and The Mellow Turtle continued jamming and recorded 'Flirt' with Tre Ess producing the track. Once completed, Mellow found out that the lyrics were about Angana flirting with him and hence named it 'Flirt'.

Lyrics:

Hey, friend there, sitting down that street come and talk to me please
Hey friend there sitting down that road
come and talk to me please
cause I've been missing missing for some time 
something, missing missing
i dont know why
cause I've been missing missing for some time 
Something, missing missing 
i dont know why 
So please
sit down, talk to me please. 
And I'll tell you the things that need to be said
And I'll tell you the things that need to be said

Lyrics -

Sunflower eyed like fell from the sky
We don't need to rush, you take all of your time
I shoot all of the tries, I do better in marathons
We could run away if the shoe fit
Saw Cinderella marching by the cupid
The love or the passion, who would you pick?
The work got me treating you foolish
Spoils of the better riches if I ever hit the lick
15 steps away from my 15 minutes
Came a long way from growing around killers
City been a savage, taught me never play the victim 
From houses that got no pillars, from couches made out of hustle
What's art without the struggle?
Same drops flow here if you ask me
Embrace worst to the best, know I might be
A god in the flesh when Mellow hype me
Writing up a mess when you ain't by me

Aamras

Ranchi based rapper & producer, Sumit Singh Solanki aka Tre Ess' latest single is a surreal HipHop tune called 'Nawazuddin Flow' featuring Bombay based rapper, Tienas. Inspired by Anurag Kashyap's stylistic approach, the single builds around a Neo-Noir soundscape with verses guided by character psychology. With Tienas as the protagonist, the intention behind the single is to create a cinematographic experience through the use of enigmatic sounds. This track is a prelude to Tre Ess' upcoming album, Sipping off Troubled Waters.

Lyrics -
 
Tre Ess :
First thing's first
I'll be the last one to blow up
Used to be alrert 
But now we passing off as products
Now I should prolly be concerned
But really I don't give a fuck
We all die in unity
The rats are winning in defeat
Let me go Mayan with this beat
Keep an eye open for receipts 
I just needed a soundtrack to play whenever I speak
If you looking for revenge, there's extra work to receive
If you looking for a tape, there's ABD you could see
This is the wrong table, here we only play for the keeps
Gods versus the merchants 
Young villainous Angels
I've been speaking in cursives
Prototype version
Listeners, all stoners
Let me carry the burden
gospel for the loners

Tienas :
How many Wars you gotta to do to make you Fight no more, How many Songs you gotta Pen to make you Write no more, 
How many Show you gotta do to Recite no more, 
How many people you Impressed to be Liked no more,
I dont know i just Slide the Sword to any Rapper that Bites, 
bitch my Types Extinct beat the Wonder Woman to a pulp
and if you wondering like ofcourse thats how i leave Diana Sour, 
How many times you gota Speak to Say no more,
How much Patience you gotta have to Wait no more, 
How much Work you gota do to be Paid in Full, 
How many wound you gota have to feel the Pain no more, Say no more, 
You see my Generation applauds Drug Dealers and Gangsters,
Watching them on the screens Guns, Stealing and Banging, Fun People what Happened, I got the Burner Run deep or get Tagged In, 
Ho Im Underrated like Nawaz, Aint no rapper fucking with me, I do this six time a day this Rap shit is my Namaz,
These Mcs Weak they Need Enduramas, 
Yeah im Sick with the, Spit, This Just a Tip of the iceberg, 
Im Daddy Kane mix with Krit with a Little bit of Sean So i hope you get the Big Pitcure.. Word to Dominic Bitch

Sumit Singh Solanki aka Tre Ess is a Ranchi-based artist whose latest release is a  Hip-Hop single called '100' featuring Bombay based rapper Shreyas & producer-guitarist, Mohit Rao. The emotive track is an expression of a misguided past, reminding us of how important it is to stay true to ourselves, especially while creating art. This track is a prelude to Tre Ess' upcoming album, Sipping Troubled Waters.

Lyrics - 

Shreyas :
The watch hides in the night, I mean times are dark,
Stay real, if you rise or not,
My decor? A whitest cloth,
Painting in stains of the guilt I bought
Man out of shape? Don't fit in the mould
Ran out of breath, hold weight above all
If I'm different in person, I'm a lie after all
If I tolerate corporate, give me the guap
A hypocrite, I rebel selectively
Gentrify sinning, if all of us did it
cool if it's all of us winning
We craving the buzz, and we morph into insects
I'm concerned of being that face in the rush,
So I wake up in sorrow and get in the bus,
If talking will help then explaining it hurts,
If I'm robbing myself off the happiness might as well take it in blood.

Tre Ess :
Have you ever tried, out running cheetahs on a bike?
Daily life, homeboy tryna pick another fight
I be holed up in the room, thinking what that life's like
Act a fool till I grew up, I'm better in hindsight
But all my friends still there
They ain't tryna come clean no
Caught a bounty on the head
Since her dad found his name and address, ay
He on the run, when we was just tryna play cricket
Before we ever had dreams, we had religion
Dealing in some dirt, here never been an issue
Morals come in play only when they beneficial
GODBLESS
I'm just hoping that my people progress
Fuck a handout and the charities and the silly contest
If you really 'bout it then you gotta credit the content
First Desi rapper ever made the left sound right
Greatest Desi rapper ever, you just gotta hear me live
But that's a conversation for a different occasion
mess up my vibrations
You rappers keep talking but really you don't say much

This week's featured release is a fresh electronica track, "Black Drongo". The latest single by Ranchi based artist Rishabh Lohia aka The Mellow Turtle, the track consists of tribal drums, flute, and electronic soundscapes. Inspired by Sadri Music, Rishabh's recent release explores eclectic rhythmic and melodic elements to deliver a peaceful downtempo electronica track.

The Mellow Turtle - Black Drongo

Around March 2018,I made this beat where everything was off grid, nothing was falling on time according to the bpm, but it was still making sense as a whole.
Back then, the only 2 rappers i know were Tre Ess and Tienas, so i asked them if they were down to work on the track.
Although Tre Ess finished writing on it by July, Tienas added his touch to the track by Dec 2018.
The track was fully done by May last year.
But it went through a lot of changes w.r.t to the release, I was just graduating but was just waiting it out.
But nonetheless, its here now in its purest form.
I hope yall enjoy it as much i did making it.
Entering a new Era.
God Bless

God Bless

God Bless ft. Tre Ess, Tienas
