Do you know the muffin mare who lives in Ponyville? Do you know the brony rapper and loyal Fluttershy fan who vocalizes fiery rhymes on crystalline feelings and lionhearted songs? Then the time is now if you’re in appetite for a fancy sample with an ethereal beat cooked by Tw3Lv3 and a compelling message from MC-Arch. Relating the lyrics to Derpy who remains strong for an aspiring dream of a kind world and standing up for your friendships knowing that natural disadvantages are never reason to hold anyone down. This lyrical deliverance is a 5-star sweet treat by MC-Arch, the MuffinMan. Also be on the lookout for their third album “You got me, I got us” later this year!
Rap / Hip-Hop
The_snake_skin蛇皮 – The Pony with a Hundred Faces | Rap / Hip-Hop
I can’t say I’d ever heard Chinese rap before I came across one of The_snake_skin蛇皮’s songs – the horse fandom once again fosters cultural exchange! Snake’s flow is fantastic in this rap about Pinkie flexing her many, many talents. And don’t worry if you don’t speak Chinese – the uploader provides full English subtitles!
The_snake_skin蛇皮 – The New Star of Wasteland | Hip-Hop / Rap
Littlepip considers herself as an ordinary pony, but due to her actions and sense of justice during adventures throughout the Equestrian Wasteland, it earned her word around to be known as a heroine, a role model and the new star of wasteland as titled by a rapper all the way from China! Rapping the distressed point of view of Littlepip over a disheartened type beat with a booming emotion and its 808s, this storytelling musical will grapple your heart with its on-point lyrics of survival and battle of hope. English lyrics are available in the closed captions of the video, shout out to Cosmia for the translation.
NickyD, ZD, Ditherer & 4EverFreeBrony – Daybreaker Dub (Prod. Evdog) | Hip-Hop
NickyD dropping bars once more together with the Homies ZD, Ditherer and 4EverFreeBrony on the guitars! Dropping an extremely dope track with both absolute sun-powered BARS from BOTH the vocals and guitars. I can feel the lovely reggae vibes with the chill guitars and dope laid-back vocals of 4EFB as all the rap verses formulate together. Each having their own unique take and bringing forward a very diverse rap experience to the listener.
Childlike Wonder – Ponk | Lo-fi / Hip-Hop
An underrated treasure from last month, Childlike Wonder mixes a lo-fi, and at times jazzy, backing instrumental with a creative rap which combines a stylistic flow with lyrics from an egotistical pink pony. Throw in a some Pinkie Pie vocal chops and a great video loop for the song, and you’ve got a can’t miss hit!
ShobieShy – Without Chryssie (Without Me Parody) (reprod. UndreamedPanic) | Hip-Hop
[VibePoniez] GhostXb – Midnight Bliss | Downtempo
I love GhostXb’s chilled out hip-hop songs like this one. He manages to create pieces with full, punch drums, but the rest of the instrumentation still brings a sense of calm a relaxation. But this also has a bit of a twist as it gorgeously transitions halfway through into a more ambient section. It feels like a sonic representation of breaking through the clouds to a clear night sky… Fitting choice of background art then, isn’t it?
vul – Flutterbutter | Trap/Hip-hop
Content Warning: profanity!
vul might be new to the fandom music scene, but with a full album and active release schedule, they are definitely a talent to watch! “Flutterbutter” comes at you quick with a mountain of hard-hitting lyrics, all performed through AI voicing. The track is impressive both for the writing, trap beat, and the extensive work in coordinating all the AI chops with hip-hop flow! vul announced a hip-hop album is in the works so be sure to watch out for that!
