FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
K-Drama to Release New Project, ‘Elegiac Sessions’ August 2nd, 2019
July 23rd, 2019 – Cincinnati, OH rap artist, K-Drama, is set to release his latest studio recording, Elegiac Sessions, August 2nd on his imprint, Playwright Music. Produced entirely by K-Drama, the EP is the follow-up to his 2019’s effort, Whetherman.
Elegiac Sessions’ 1st single, “Gotta Do Better,” has seen moderate success, nearing 100,000 streams on Spotify. The latest single, “We Win Through the Struggle” was inspired by a sermon he heard at church.
“When I heard Pastor Chuck Mingo preach about overcoming struggles by going through it, I resonated with his words heavy & immediately though this notion needed to be echoed in songform. Oftentimes we as people tend to avoid struggle rather than go through it.” “We Win Through the Struggle” can be streamed on Spotify along with the other 3 singles from Elegiac Sessions.
Elegiac Sessions’ title was inspired by the former NPR Podcast, Microphone Check hosted by Ali Shaheed Muhammad of A Tribe Called Quest & Frannie Kelley. In an interview conducted with Recording Artist/Producer Large Professor, the term, “elegiac” was mentioned & a lightbulb turned on in K-Drama’s mind, establishing the EP. It’s this vocabulary that encapsulates the landscape of the project. In true K-Drama fashion, he is transparent about lamentations and bold in proclaiming hope in Jesus Christ. The bright hues & dark tones fuse together to give a balance of heavy thoughts and profound inspiration..
“To me this project feels like the conclusion of a four-part series. Winds & .Wavs was the storm, The 8th was the aftermath of the storm, Whetherman was accepting storms in life will come & Elegiac Sessions is moving forward from the storm.”
K-Drama’s, Elegiac Sessions, is now available to pre-order on iTunes & www.playwrightmusic.com. He is gearing up for an upcoming promotional tour with a full itinerary to be announced and is working on music videos to support the EP.
