It has been a super creative year for Ozzient. We previously shared his evocative and inspiring sophomore single, Feelin’ A Vibe, as well as his collaboration with LandoIsLiving and KiERAN for the empowering release of They Say, so when we heard that the visionary artist was back with NLTS, we were curious and couldn’t wait to listen and feed back!
NLTS opens with an intricate and Eastern-adjacent guitar lick with assertive, repeated ad libs of the hook, “I got nothin’ left to say…”, before we experience a fierce flow from Pronto Valid who shares his soul and lived experience with us. The second verse features A.T.O., also known as AllenTheOfficial who delivers conscious prose and a dimensional vocal performance that has us in awe!
Speaking on the message of NLTS, Ozzient confesses, “This song is about the hardships and struggles of every person trying to achieve their goals, dreams and aspirations. Something that pretty much every person goes through on a daily basis.” He adds, “[NLTS] is about pushing through the hard times and seeing it through and through to get to the end goal.”
We also learn that Walter R lent his skill with the guitar plucks that we experience throughout the track and he also suggested to add in the gongs for the choruses!
We deeply appreciate the intention of the track, and how flawlessly Ozzient works with his collaborators, bringing to life a holistic and intentional opus which has us feeling inspired and empowered.
NLTS has been added to our New Music Spotlight playlist, whilst we continue to stream Ozzient‘s growing discography, and anticipate future releases from the visionary creator.
