Central MA artist Rice is a phenomenal rapper & his new song “Starz” is a work of art. Rice stands out with his strong vocals, as the artist masterfully holds and drags out notes (making the song fun to sing along to). The chorus is catchy, while the lyrics balance emotional depth and simplicity, focusing on self-expression and self-acceptance. It feels like the artist is speaking to the listener and himself. His delivery is smooth and melodic, showcasing a sharp ear for melody. Ethereal brass and synth sounds elevate the production on the track. The beat is a standout as it blends island rhythms with American pop and hip-hop. Overall, I recommend you check out this new Rice single & catch the vibe this song has to offer.
