Temple Work :: Anastasia Practicing ‘Kale & Yoga’

Austin-based emcee Anastasia (FKA Anya) is a picture perfect example of positive growth.  She was already fresh out the gate, but after making an introductory push to the greater Austin music scene the past few years, she took a brief moment to reflect and redirect.  The result is a mentally and spiritually stronger artist, who seems to be both enjoying the ride and focused enough to control the direction it leads.  More power to you, and here’s to great things in your future.

Double Dosage :: New Singles From Austin Artists

While doing my daily combing through social media over the past few weeks, I’ve come across a handful of cool songs that I don’t want to be missed in the shuffle of individual articles.  Here are two of those songs… a remix of BLXPTN‘s Train (Get Out) by R. Radna, and a Kydd Jones track blessed by Anya.  You know the drill.. enjoy, download, share, and so on.

Permanent Reminder :: Anya’s ‘Blue Ink’

A friend of mine with Transmission Records recently hipped me to Anya, and I am forever thankful that he did.  While not the first female MC from the Austin area, she is the first to approach Lauryn Hill status in terms of blending a feminine mystique with a strong sense of lyricism.  Blue Ink, featuring Bluu Suede on the hook, is both a love letter to Austin and a reminder to keep those you love in your head and heart at all times.  I am definitely looking forward to what the future holds for Anya.
