“Everyone Knows” is the first single from Sirweah’s upcoming project, “Sounds from Overseas”.   This track shows how Sirweah can tell a story with lyrical punch lines that resonate with his audience and shows his range and powerful voice as he sings his own hook.  The comparisons to B.O.B and even Kid Cudi draw you into the song as he tells you where he came from, “We came along way from singing in dem hallways” to his motivation of creating a beautiful picture of passion and drive as he states he will never stop making music. 

Sirweah (pronounced Sir-way) is a Singer/Songwriter and record producer from New Jersey. His music is a result of experimenting, primarily, with Pop and Hip Hop music which he often tags as "Hip Pop". Although he dabbles in such genres, the Liberian native, considers himself to be less of the ordinary rapper or singer that's confined to one style, but rather an artist that uses inspiration from all avenues to paint a bigger picture that is his music.

"For me, it's never been about proving myself the best rapper or vocalist; there's always going to be someone who has me beat at that," says the humble artist who also admits to not being very devoted to Hip Hop at a young age. "If I could, however, give the best feeling to a listener with just one song, then I feel like I've succeeded. That's what my music has always been about; making people feel, and giving them hope from those emotions". This mindset is what sets him on a different path - a sonically and conceptually liberating one.

Count of 3 REVIEW

In a world where many hip hop and R&B tracks are mindbogglingly overly produced and edited, breakout artist Legend dropped a single that breaks the mold. "Count of 3" produced by J. Caperson, manages to capture everything that makes a good hip hop/R&B track great.

The hook is catchy. Think of the "been-stuck-in-my-head-all-day" kind of catchy that gets you dancing inappropriately in the middle of supermarkets and business meetings. Add that on top of a dance beat that's oh so sexy in perfect rhythm, and you've got a single that quickly tops your "Recently Played" playlists.

It's the profundity of Legend's lyricism, however, that makes this track - and this artist - a universal force to be reckoned with. "Cuz when I rise I stand so tall I gotta duck into it," for example, illustrates so much more than his perceived sexual prowess. While simultaneously appealing to the masses, Legend pens lyrics that demand and deserve deeper analysis and appreciation.

Is "Count of 3" to be the next best hip hop and R&B single to hit ITunes? Possibly. Will you be captivated by the resonant voice and lyrical depth? Absolutely. "People call me Legend how about you let me prove it." It's a challenge he's gladly accepted.
