Listen to Ari Lennox’s Rendition of ‘A Kind Of Magic’

Ari Lennox is back again with another drop! She’s certainly on a roll with her renditions of old-school classics. This time around — in collaboration with Coca-Cola — she’s dished out her own take on ‘A Kind of Magic’ by the world-renowned British rock group known as Queen.
The hit single was originally penned by the band’s drummer, Roger Taylor and was used in the fantasy/action film, Highlander. Check out this fan-made visualizer below:
‘One dream, one soul
One prize, one goal
One golden glance of what should be
(It’s a kind of magic)
One shaft of light that shows the way
No mortal man can win this day
(It’s a kind of magic)’
The different approaches to the song, from 1986 to 2022 are quite captivating.
The rock n’ roll production, especially in tandem with the Highlander’s themes of courage and immortality defines magic as something heroic and supernatural. On the other hand, Ari’s rendition defines magic as everlasting, familial love as she notes in her behind-the-scenes clip at Coke Studios.
Flipping a rock jam into rhythmic soul was a challenge that Ari conquered effortlessly. In the same video, she briefly mentions how she worked to stay true to the late Freddie Mercury‘s range and, of course, it all came together beautifully in the end.

Nicki Minaj Releases New Single ‘Super Freaky Girl’

Earlier this year, Nicki Minaj kicked off her NM5 era with the back-to-back releases, “Do We Have A Problem?” followed by “Bussin” which both featured Lil Baby.

Fabolous Drops “One Thing” Freestyle and New Single, “Say Less”

Last week, Funk Flex challenged Fabolous to drop some new music via social media.
“I challenge Fabolous to get me a song by next Thursday in six days,” said Flex on Instagram. “Fabolous, do you accept the challenge or not? Fabolous, I’ve been paying attention to you. I see you out here, I hope this doesn’t get you upset, but you been getting $80,000 to $100,000 a show to host. Not even do shows — $80,000 to $100,000 to walk in the building.”
Accepting the challenge, Fabolous not only decided to drop a freestyle over Amerie‘s “One Thing,” but he took the opportunity to drop a new single as well. Teaming up with French Montana on the new single titled, “Say Less,” the two New York natives find themselves in an Asian-styled establishment surrounded by beautiful women and hit the audience with a message.
