.Roy redefines sound and spirit with debut EP "Into Divinity"

Newark-born visionary Roy is transcending their musical journey with their debut EP, "Into Divinity," a genre-defying exploration of spiritual awakening and boundless creativity. "Into Divinity" always had an endless imagination, and we are exercising that creativity to reimagine the reality we've been dealt with; it's experimental, genreless, and divine."

Melding heartfelt lyricism with an enveloping production, .Roy spins a tale based on self-discovery, stars aligning, and the notion that music can be a mirror and map. "Manifest as love and the universal order," As Roy puts it, the EP is a spiritual awakening that sounds that way. Each track has a purpose, as if it were a cosmic breadcrumb leading you to more truth within yourself.

Roy is a fresh new presence in hip-hop and the wider art world. On "Into Divinity," he announces himself as a brazen new voice, with 11 songs that run a hair over 32 minutes. But don't let its length deceive you because this EP is a wide-ranging, soul-stirring journey through sound, thought, and even transformation. The soul-searching "Legacy," deep and resonant and questioning the marks we leave, here or beyond, and "Favorite," a mesmerizing cut weighted with emotion, most attractively unveils Roy's most vulnerable side.

Fans can expect a blend of metaphysical beats, genre-blending influences, and cutting lyrics. While hip hop is still the pulse throughout, sputters of soul, ambient, and even psychedelic strains all thread themselves through the EP, making it quite a trip. From lush tapestries to poetic verses spoken directly to the spirit, "Into Divinity" is an uncommon debut, one that not only feels like an arrival but a rebirth. "Into Divinity" is an open invitation to go within, dream out, and walk the path of self-knowing with your head high and your spirit right.
