FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
VETERAN HIP HOP ARTIST SUBSTANTIAL RELEASES MOVING TRIBUTE TO WIFE AND SISTER WITH ‘YOU’VE GROWN’
Friday, February 17, 2023 (Alexandria, VA) — International Hip-Hop recording artist, Substantial is pleased to announce his latest single, “You’ve Grown.” The track features R&B vocalist MLLN who contributes a soulful melodic tapestry against Substantial’s three-quarter note flow and sincere lyrics. “You've Grown” featuring MLLN will be Substantial’s third single from his upcoming album Adultish due to release in April.
“You’ve Grown” was made to pay homage to and celebrate the growth and perseverance of your loved ones. The first verse honors Substantial's wife and business partner, Rachelle's creative journey, and the second verse is a tribute to his sister Lisa and her many accomplishments in spite of experiencing adversity and hardship. "I wrote this song to honor these two special women in my life. My hope is that this song finds listeners who have someone in their life to celebrate who is equally inspiring to them," says Substantial.
“You've Grown” is written and produced by Substantial, with Jonathan Smalls on bass and additional synth provided by Tonedeff (QN5/QUINTIC), who also mixed and mastered the project. “You've Grown” drops today on all digital streaming platforms.
