Eternity, the first released track from "Lotus Effect" by YungSun (formerly Haze), reflects his ascension beyond the darkness that permeated his first two mixtapes. With warm vocals and a playful instrumental, YungSun welcomes you to the eternal nature of all that is. The instrumental is called "Edamame" by Nome.

The second track "SuperNova" off of YungSun's third mixtape welcomes longtime friend & fellow artist Reed Williams into the mix. Together, the two acknowledge that life can be conflicting at times... to the point where we might just explode. Yet from this eruption... comes beautiful creation. The instrumental was produced by HiGR.

Trading in singing for his traditional wordplay, YungSun demonstrates his capabilities as an emcee in track 3. God S#!t pays homage to the person YungSun once was while simultaneously revealing the man that he has grown to become. The instrumental is produced by Bliss.

Track 4 of "Lotus Effect" represents the duality that we face while living on this physical plane of reality. Left & right... light & dark... good & evil... not one can exist without the other. It is through this realization that we can find balance and truth during our experiences here. So when times seem dark and you're ready to give up... please remember: "Keep working til' the sun comes up."

Lotus Effect

Til The Sun Comes Up

We've all experienced it... growing apart from the ones that we've loved...  in track 5 of "Lotus Effect" YungSun touches on the process of losing & loving again. Love can never be found if one stays reclusive. Only through opening up do we discover that there is something  much, much more.

Something More

"Alone" is the second part of Yungsun's (formerly Haze's) song "Exit Stage Left" from his first mixtape "Welcome to: The Void." The original was a testament to his frustrations with society & the world in general. It was stress relief. Now coming unto new realizations, part 2 is an expression of the indifference that is born as a result of awakening to higher consciousness. You may lose friends... you may lose family... you may not be able to relate to anything that you once could. To put it simply... you may feel alone. Although it is a natural part of the enlightenment process, YungSun recognizes that this is an extremely difficult thing to deal with. In a poetic type of way, YungSun shares his own experiences with loneliness in hopes that you may hear his words and understand... you are never truly alone.

From darkness comes light...

Formally known as Haze, YungSun denotes the completion of an evolutionary cycle in my musical and spiritual life. Before moving onward, I am joyous to share with you all my stories of growth, unity, and realization. This may very well be the end of an era as I continue my path towards enlightenment. With this being said, I am ecstatic to evolve beyond my ego to join you all in unimaginable realms of love and light. I am YungSun... May the source be with you all. <3
