BELLWOOD, ILLINOIS - Many musicians attempt to relate to fans with lyrical spontaneity, but few artists can dive into the psyche of listeners. Picasso De Conscience has succeeded in creating lyrics that question good vs. evil.
Picasso De Conscience is gaining popularity for his storytelling abilities, witty vocabulary, promoting originality, and the art of being oneself. “My goal is to make you say something or think something that you possibly didn’t know that you knew. Originality is important to me, and I can adapt to any song or beat. My next song shouldn’t sound like my last song,” said Picasso De Conscience.
Born in the west suburbs of Chicago, Picasso De Conscience has been rapping since childhood. He has the talent to mix old-school rap vibes with current hip-hop styles, creating music unlike anything else. Taking inspiration from Lil Wayne, Biggie Smalls, and The Weeknd, Picasso De Conscience talks to listeners’ souls. “I can speak to your soul, so you know it’s OK to come out, so you don’t have to be another person. You don’t have to dishonor yourself,” he said.
By using multiple personalities, Picasso De Conscience can rap about different points of view within the same song, which relates to fans across the globe. “There’s ways of bringing personalities out of everything. In today’s music, they rap about the same things a million times. Instead, I would prefer to rap about a million different things a million different ways,” he said.
“Match” is Picasso De Conscience’s latest single displaying his musical genius to bring out multiple identities in his lyrics. “There’s a side of me that is very honest and doesn’t care. There’s a side of me that’s laughing at you. And there’s also a side of me that wants to teach you at the same time,” he said. “Within this song, I catch your attention through your childhood memories. The song is a banger. When you listen to it, you don’t know that you will like it as much as you do. It stops you from acting on your emotions too hastily. I’m going to make you double and triple think your thoughts.”
The controlled chaos that Picasso De Conscience creates reveals his dark side. While he can be upbeat and fun, his ability to switch gears and grind on the track allows him to do what no one else can. Perhaps it is the fact that he’s also a registered actor who specializes in voiceovers - shifting his tone and pitch. At the same time, rapping gives him the ability to sound like multiple singers when Picasso De Conscience does various voices.
As the owner and operator of Hood Genius Solutions LLC, and Rogue Solutions Entertainment LLC, Picasso De Conscience is a businessman and entrepreneur. With a name like ‘Picasso’ representing a man of all things and ‘Conscience’ referring to a person’s state of mind, it is no wonder why this independent singer/songwriter can touch generations with his old school methods and fresh beats.
Understanding the technique behind Picasso De Conscience’s musical mastery is why he continues to attract new fans with his no-nonsense songs. “I listen with my ears and your ears,” he said. “I can give you what you want and what you need. There’s a way of going about things without having to conform.”

“A sexy, sensual song about making love.” Any questions?
That’s how Atlanta rapper PrettyP describes “Headboard,” her latest single, which has been released on the label Famous Records and features the talents of Lil Durk.
As a nurse, dancer, and mom of four, PrettyP is a busy woman. But in making music, she steals her own time to shine.
I’ma grab that headboard
Suck it with no teeth
I’ma have you drowning
When you go underneath
PrettyP says, “My verse was dedicated to my fiancé. I really wrote it, thinking of him.”
Making a name for herself in music, PrettyP is on an inspiring path from rags to riches. In 2024, she was offered more than 20 feature opportunities through a label supporting independent artists. She also boasts of an ongoing independent contract for feature collaborations.
PrettyP comes from a musical family. Growing up in Milwaukee, music was like oxygen surrounding her as her parents had multiple record labels. Her brother is a rapper as well.
With these musical roots in her family, she learned music production early. Now, she takes a hands-on approach to her career as an independent artist. Recording primarily on BandLab, PrettyP handles her own mixing and mastering. Her approach is decidedly self-directed and allows her to shape her sound and music career exactly as she sees fit. She can move quickly, experimenting with sounds and collaborators without having to wait on traditional studio timelines or big label approval processes.
As for her goals, PrettyP says her focus is on building consistent visibility and earning a place in regular rotation on radio, Spotify playlists, and in the club.
Her lyrics are based on her life. She is inspired by artists like Snoop Dogg and Nicki Minaj, and references artists like Boosie Badazz and Pop Smoke. In turn, she wants others to be inspired by her own upward aspirations, her own philosophy of “not taking ‘no’ for an answer.”
In short, PrettyP’s message is clear: “Anybody can do it,” she says. If someone like PrettyP can aim for collaborations with the best and brightest in hip hop, then her fans should surely feel that the sky is the limit.
In addition to the release of “Headboard,” PrettyP is also gearing up for a major birthday celebration. In honor of her 27th birthday, she is hosting a live concert event at Atlanta’s Tabernacle. The event includes a lineup of special guests for what she promises will be a “night to remember.”
Fans can access discounted tickets using the promo code PRETTY. Additional group rates are available through the event page.
“Headboard” is available now with promotional support from Starlight PR. Follow PrettyP at the links below.
