PRESS RELEASE:
Artist Releases Song to Tackle Growing Depression Among Youth
BOSTON, Mass. — Dr Jaymz, a British artist now living in the USA, releases new single ‘Set Me Loose.’ As the world’s first missionary turned EDM artist, his inspiring new release tackles the growth in depression among youth. According to the CDC’s most recent report, rates of psychological distress among youth, including anxiety and depression, have increased. It’s clear that people need a sense of love and purpose to tackle these emotions. Dr Jaymz is doing just that by merging music with an uplifting message that can overcome feelings of sadness and brokenness.
In his latest release, Dr Jaymz delivers a message of freedom and deliverance, where he infuses iconic house instrumentals with gospel lyrics, lovingly crafted to comfort and heal the lonely and broken. Ethereal synths, pulsing keys, and powerhouse vocals collide, for a straight up danceable house sound reminiscent of hits by Joel Corry, Clean Bandit and David Guetta.
People who struggle with depression often feel like they have no one who cares for them or understands their feelings. However, through his uplifting single, Dr Jaymz moves the hearts of listeners with lyrics of hope and care, showing people that God loves them. The vocalist sings, “I thought that I was ok but then you came and showed me a life that is a better way. Everyone is looking for a better life, and this song highlights the everlasting life found in a relationship with God through Jesus Christ. The chorus ‘You set me loose, now I wanna dance,’ sums up the vibe of the song and will surely move audiences to their feet.
Mastered by the same studio that brought the hit single ‘Head and Heart’ by Joel Corry, ‘Set Me Loose’ is set to become another hit that will captivate listeners with a fresh UK House sound that’s become increasingly popular among music listeners worldwide.
Dr Jaymz is available for interviews to share with your audience his uniquely creative and timely approach for battling depression through music.

The world of music has always been spiced up when exceptional artists come along and surprise us. Once again, the world of music has been blessed by Hello Fiasco. Hello Fiasco is a fire-brand Pop Rock group of five that comes from both Canada and the USA. They are on the rise and without flattering them too much, Hello Fiasco is great! Their tracks have tons of lyrical quality and their overall sound is epic. Apart from the uniqueness that can be found in their tone, you might think they are Cold Play.
Their debut album titled “Find the Shoreline” is an absolute worldie and so is the first single from the album: “Hold me Close.” “Hold me Close” is not just a hit song in my opinion; it goes beyond that. It is a banger and a mix of indescribable artistic beauty all at once. The highly-rated and emerging band were fortunate enough to have worked with some of the best of producers and sound engineers in the music business, and the result is songs like “Hold Me Close.” Much to the delight of fans, topafricmusicvideo did an interview with Hello Fiasco, and this is what they had to say about themselves:

We are a 5-piece Pop Rock band named Hello Fiasco from both Canada and the US.

There are five of us so all different ages.

We are definitely a Pop Rock Band.

We just released a song called “Hold Me Close” in May. It’s the lead-off single from our debut album and we are super excited that the song already hit 300,000 streams on Spotify and 100,000 views on YouTube, before we even release the album. The album itself, titled “Find The Shoreline, is officially released on August 4 but it has already had 1,000,000 plays on Spotify and been added to over 2,000 playlists there as well.

Since the track was released early to Spotify on the 5th of May, Hold Me Close has been streamed over three hundred thousand times of major streaming platforms. The album itself, “Find The Shoreline” now has 1,200,000 plays, even though it is only set to be released worldwide on August 4.
The song “Hold Me Close” is flavored with rhythmic synth beats, well timed rimshots and drum kicks, beautiful piano syncopation and a powerful but sonorous voice to match it all. At first, the song starts with a syncopation of synth beats as the voice of Hello Fiasco emerges into the background.
Fast forward to the end of the first verse, there is a moment of beauty, as the song explodes and spirals into the chorus. The sudden wave of sound hits differently and sends you straight to cloud 9. Click the link below to stream the track.

Hold Me Close Lyrics
Lyrically, “Hold me close” is a masterpiece and can be found on Hello Fiasco’s official website. Overall, the hook of the song “We do the things that we’ve done over and over before, a new experience is all that I’m asking you for” paints the perfect picture of the what the song is trying to say. After all, we all remember that feeling of being locked inside with our partners during COVID, and we also remember how the whole experience of COVID caused strain on our personal relationships. Even more so, we also remember that feeling of wanting to escape and do something outside. This video is a beatiful representation of that sentiment.
Below is the lyric of the song
[verse 1]
Why don’t we step outside -Take a car ride
Why don’t we catch a flick – Maybe we will click
Like we used to way back when we were new
We do the things that we’ve done over and over before
A new experience is all that I’m asking you for
[chorus]
Hold me close and help me remember
Can you hold me close like there’s no other
I wish you would hold me close like there’s nothing else
[verse 2]
Should I have shared the shame
Have I been wrong to blame
My courage it comes in waves
And then it pulls away
I never say a thing – I never say a thing
We do the things that we’ve done over and over before
A new experience is all that I’m asking you for
[Chorus]
Can you hold me close and help me remember
Can you hold me close like there’s no other
I wish you would hold me close like there’s nothing else
Can you hold me close and help me remember
Can you hold me close like there’s no other
I wish you
I wish you would hold me close like there’s nothing else
Like there’s nothing else
On YouTube, the official video of Hold Me Close has recorded over one hundred thousand views since it premiered in May. The video has also received a lot of positive reviews from fans and music lovers alike. Visuals of the hit track involve alternating scenes of a couple who are struggling, but eventually they find their way to happiness. It’s great that you get to see the band performing the song in different scenes. All of this was somehow crammed into 3 minutes and 42 seconds of absolute delight.
Here is the video below
Prior to 2021, ex-members of The Mailman’s Children collaborated with other Canadian musicians to record 23 original songs. The freshly formed Pop Rock band, Hello Fiasco, made their public debut at the beginning of 2021. Hello Fiasco is primarily Canadian, but the music band is also referred to as a “North American” band because their lead singer Eric LaBossiere was born in Canada and now resides in the US. The rest of the crew including Joel Couture on bass, Joel Perreault on lead guitars and supporting vocals, Ivan Burke on drums and backing vocals, and Guy Abraham on keys and Ableton all reside in Canada.
On August 4, “Find The Shoreline,” the group’s debut album, will be made accessible globally (2022). John Paul Peters, a renowned Canadian producer, and frontman Eric LaBossiere collaborated on its co-production.
“Born Alone Die Alone” talks about a true fact of life which is that we are born alone and we will die alone. Duvee’s message in this song is crystal clear and resonates with those who understand the concept of “Man in the Mirror”. The man in the mirror doesnt wait for things to happen, he makes them happen. He is a little bit selfish because he looks after number 1 which is self. The message says hussle hard every day untill you die. Most people worry so much about others but Mr. Duvee Davis is telling them to worry more about themselves.
Duvee’s rap style comes accross in a two step trap beat. One minute he is tongue twisting, the next minute he is rapping. He shows his multi-talent by also singing part of the hook which says ” I will die alone” and at the same time he replies with “Born Alone Die Alone, I hussle everyday untill im gone” niccproject.com got a chance to ask the upcoming artist a few questions and here is what he had to say:
Q: Can you please tell our readers your real name as well as your stage name?
Real name and stage name – Duvee Davis
Q: Where are you from and Where are you based?
I moved around alot in America but I started my hip hop career in the Brownsville section of Brooklyn New York.
Q: At What age did you start making music?
15
Q: what genre would you consider yourself?
Hip Hop
Q: Tell us about your latest track or Video ( what is it all about)–Please explain the concept or message
My latest video is called “Born Alone Die Alone” and it is a song about self-reliance and the video is filmed in Chinatown in Bangkok
Q: Who wrote it and what was the inspiration behind it
Written by – Duvee Davis and the inspiration is based off of my experience in life and how when things are going bad and you are all alone you need to rely on yourself.
Q: If you were given a chance, which Artist would you love to perform with?
Ariana Grande because she is hot.

The track “Buttermilk” took me way back to 1998 when Mos Def & Talib Kweli released the album titled “Black Star”. “Aktu el Shabazz” sounds exactly like a mixture of Mos Def & Talib Kweli put together. Immediately after hearing 30 seconds of the track, my mind and soul went straight back to 1998 Texas Southern University which was the school I attended and I truly had an out of body experience.
“Buttermilk” brings back the euphoria and nostalgic feeling I had back in those school days when I would be driving in my Ford expedition with my hip hop music blasting really high from the car speakers and everyone on campus staring at me as if I was crazy. “Aktu el Shabazz” must be a reincarnation from this era because his voice and style of rap truly takes you back to the 90s.
The track is smooth and cool to any listeners ears as the baseline drops and “Aktu el Shabazz” drops his lyrical genius right on the beat. He starts the track with the hook which says “smooth like a buttermilk biscuit” and then drops a verse which is truly smoother than a Buttermilk biscuit. He further went on to dribble our minds with his rhythmic words and melodic flow. He truly can rap better and faster than most of the popular rappers we know.
This is true hip hop at its best and a true rapper who spits really good verses that make alot of sense. He will have you glued to the radio all day long just with his slick voice, thoughtful words, and banging beats. I have no doubt in my mind that he was heavily influenced by rappers like Lauryn Hill and Common
Dont only take my words for it but please listen to the track on Spotify and judge for yourself.
