Daylite mixes it up with this smokers party anthem Bother Nobody. It's a very hip-hop chill vibe during the verses and the bridge, but the hook picks up the energy.

The multidimensional artist Daylite is catering to the low key party goers and smokers that lean up against the wall but really are ready to dance, with her new song Bother Nobody.  Another banger produced by VisTheKid, recorded and mixed by the San Fransisco legend DJ Pause. Bother Nobody showcases Daylite's lyrical ability and her affinity to the old school rap of the 90's and 80's. As soon as the beat drops she begins enchanting us as she proclaims herself 'The funky mistress' and by the end we're all chanting "tick tock it don't stop". It's the perfect dose of nostalgia  while still mixing new school with the original. The sounds of bass and horns by VisTheKid continues to give us a jazzy feel which works perfectly as he amps up the sound during the chorus. Smokers and Curren$y fans will fall in love with this song as Daylite reminds us of why artists like Wiz Khalifa, Kid Cudi and Big Sean dominated the underground during the early 2010's. Something about her style reminds us of those times. Even in her party/smokers anthem she still manages to sprinkle in some uplifting and encouraging message in her song as the chorus highlights she just want to feel free to exist and have fun while still being herself.  


 
  Daylite will be releasing a music video for Bother Nobody 6/9/2023 shot and edited by Gus Got Flicks. The video showcases a night out with her homies, turned up  on a party bus but really not trying to bother nobody. Subscribe to her YouTube DayliteRaps to catch all of her new releases. 


   Daylite was raised in Vallejo CA in a huge family of 8 Black Belts. Her first job was working at her families Black owned Tae Kwon Do School. She took an early interest in art with plenty of time on her hands due to being Home Schooled. During homeschool Daylite's Mother had her reading African and African American history books for English class and History. This heavily influenced Daylite's world view and you can hear those sentiments reflected in her music. She wrote poetry and songs as a young child and performed at talent shows, musical plays and open mic's for years before ever recording a rap. At 18 Daylite went by Deezy and dropped a mixtape titled The Experiment Vol 1. After a few years in a group and then a long hiatus, Daylite reemerged in 2018 dropping her first digital release and first album titled The Mass Education of Daylite. Her new sound of slapping beats and deeper content would continue to be a common thread in all of the releases that would follow. Her second album Omni (05/2020)  would be an upgrade to the same style of the former, with more features, unique producers, and better sound quality. Her Stand out tracks on that album would be Han Solo, Gate Keeper, Self-Control, and Tuition. The best thing about diving into her music catalog is you can clearly hear the growth and exponential potential of this artists trajectory. Her vulnerable lyrics are relatable and each song's subject matter fit a different mood. Daylite grew up listening to everything from Sade and Lauryn Hill to Mac Dre and E-40, her current favorite artists are Sa-Roc, Rapsody, Isaiah Rashad, Kendrick Lamar, and Dreezy. Her flow is very smooth and you can hear the Bay Area influence in her delivery and production selection, however her content and subject matter is unique and tasteful. It's deep without sounding preachy. It has the vibe of both ratchet and woke, or spiritual and hyphy and it's a fun experience.

Daylite picks up momentum by releasing new music video and single  Cheat Code just one month after her last single Drunken Master. 


                                Artwork by Daylite






Daylite is bringing something different to her fans with the soulful sounds of Cheat Code. Another banger produced by VisTheKid, recorded and mastered by Versoul. Cheat Code narrates the frustration with the system, especially in the politically charged, expensive Bay Area CA. Daylite recognizes she has an old soul and relates more to Angela Davis' philosophies than that of the current mainstream rappers and its heavily on display in this song. She ends her first verse by saying she tends to hold back and the need to break out of the norm. Her second verse is extremely powerful as she speaks on keeping balance, faith and motivation despite the world going crazy all around her. She ends the second verse by saying she will no longer hold back and to screw being self conscious and let go of self doubt, in order to overcome her struggles. Her words are not only encouraging as she reveals the key to overcoming hard times, but she also rides the VisTheKid beat effortlessly with intriguing word play that will keep you spell bound. The soulful sample and heavy bass, compliments the 808 and it will keep your head knocking.  The tempo is just slow enough that you can relax to this song on a rainy night with your incense burning as it helps to set the atmosphere.   


 
  Daylite's award winning Director Robert Elcock has filmed, directed, and edited this latest,  Cheat Code Video . The dynamic duo have already released Granite (released in May of 2022 and awarded a Bronze Medal by the Global Music Awards), Drunken Master, and now Cheat Code. The video takes you through the 5 stages of grief showcasing, anger, denial, bargaining, depression and acceptance. The most epic scene is on the beach when a Black Angel appears and breaks the chains off of Daylite as she prays on her knee's by a bonfire. This latest installment has us on the edge of our seats waiting to see what creative art will they release next.

DayLite's Drunken Master Press Release:



                   Tae Kwon Do Instructor DayLite, releases new song Drunken Master 11/11/22! 



                                                                           Song Link

Underground Rap has a new contender in Martial Art's Teacher, DayLite. Inspired by her Tae Kwon Do background and a love for old Kung Fu movies, fostered by her Father, Soaring Eagles Tae Kwon Do School Owner, Master Jones, her new song Drunken Master captures the braggadocios nature of Jackie Chan's portrayal of the young bull headed character in 1978's cult classic movie, Drunken Master. The song is less than three minutes and leaves you wanting more of her smooth tone and flow. It's a simple concept with catchy lyrics, a nice slapping bass, a funky melodic tone, and refreshingly no cussing. 


 
  DayLite is set to follow up this single with an official music video before December. Her last song and music video, Granite (released in May of 2022) is still making it's rounds through film festival's having already been awarded a Bronze Medal by the Global Music Awards. She promises new music in December and teases a new project titled Warrior In A Garden, sticking with her warrior attitude and Samurai aesthetic.
