(The Dream Boys’ cover art for new single “Break Even”)
It’s been a long time since there’s been a rapper or artist that could even come close to the speed and wit of the legendary Nicki Minaj, but The Dream Boys have accomplished exactly that in their new single titled “Break Even”! While hearing for the first time, the listener feels the nostalgia rolling on as the melodies and energy of this track can be reminiscent of early 2000’s Punk Pop with a nice hip hop twist.
Kalon Justice (26) and Troy Taylor (25) were born and raised in Detroit, Michigan and are checking off their bucket list one by one. Kalon is a trans-disciplinary artist who employs drawing portraits, paintings, and music to create conceptual work that explores how notions of identity are disrupted by strength and pain from black and LGBTQ+ community. Troy Tyler is also transforming the standard for uniqueness, authenticity, and beauty through various forms of expression. All this genius could not be left in the dark, so it was time for these two to form a group!
The Dream Boys took things to a whole new level when the announcement went public on Instagram. The artwork, which showed The Dream Boys covered in blood and holding a heart, was accompanied by their stunning figures and faces with the title of the track written in red!
Kalon Justice sweeps the first verse with an articulate and concise delivery enough to blow the average man away. Troy Taylor makes a flabbergasting follow up for the 2nd verse with his grunge pop baritone vocals bringing the song a flare only these two pop stars could pull off. Immediately, the listener is immersed in a world that feels simultaneously familiar and also still very foreign.
After all the commotion on the internet, The Dream Boys have had an influx of DMs, booking offers, and overall new fans flooding their timelines. Ever since opening for Tamar Braxton, the opportunities and partnerships won’t stop pouring in for these legends in the making. Luckily for all of us, this is only the beginning of what’s to come from The Dream Boys! We can’t wait to see what they cook up!
