Toronto‑based sisters Tiffany Ayalik and Inuksuk Mackay, known collectively as PIQSIQ, have unveiled their third studio album, Legends, a captivating exploration of Inuit mythology through experimental throat-singing electronics.

Recorded at Vancouver’s Monarch Studios with producer Alex Penney, the 10-track album unfolds like a ritualistic journey. It begins and ends with ambient soundscapes that frame eight vibrant narratives—each inspired by specific figures from Inuit lore. From “Amautalik: Giantess” to “Ijiraq: Shape‑Shifter,” and even “Mahaha: Tickling Demon,” PIQSIQ revive ancestral tales of survival, respect, and connection to the land.

Alaska’s own Rapper and Producer AK Wasabi is back with a new sonic firestorm titled “Wild.” True to its name, the track is a no-holds-barred anthem of self-expression and rebellion, fusing Wasabi’s signature sharp-tongued lyricism with a ferocious, bass-heavy beat that refuses to sit still.

On “Wild,” Wasabi spits with urgency and swagger, delivering lines that flirt with chaos and confidence, all while weaving in nods to their roots and creative evolution. It’s a high-voltage follow-up to their breakout 2024 releases and cements their status as a fearless voice in Alaska’s growing hip-hop scene.

Whether you’re new to Wasabi or already part of the cult following, “Wild” is a must-listen—raw, unfiltered, and untamed.

Montana-based rapper Yvng Vin returns this New Music Friday with a raw and reflective new single, “My Soul.”Known for his blend of personal storytelling and atmospheric beats, Vin digs even deeper on this track, laying bare his inner thoughts and emotional struggles over haunting piano and stripped down production. With “My Soul,” Yvng Vin continues to prove he’s a voice to watch in the independent hip hop scene. The track is now streaming on all major platforms.
