Illect Recordings Signs Veteran Emcee Ozay Moore & Releases New EP
DESCRIPTION:
Producer Braille and MC MotionPlus link up for EP Still Dreamin’. The title track sets the tone — silky organs and guitars laying a smooth canvas beneath Motion’s unhurried flow. Still Dreamin’ was born in the margins: the hours left over after career, family, and daily responsibility. A passion project reminding us all to keep aspiring, to let imagination run wild, and to chase new possibilities without apology.
