Barry Marz | “DREAM THERAPY”, An Introspective Collection
Rap Fiesta‘s newest featured artist, Barry Marz, turned inward to devise his 15-track album, “DREAM THERAPY.” The carefully crafted project pulls sounds from numerous hip-hop styles while simultaneously delivering introspective lyrics.
Barry Marz was driven by an intention to help others while creating “DREAM THERAPY.” That said, the rapper wanted to send a message to those struggling with their mental health and reassure them that it’s okay to ask for help. The all-encompassing message is heard throughout the project and delivered powerfully.
The Fairfax, Virginia-based rapper and producer collaborated with seven different producers to give life to “DREAM THERAPY.” Although each song conveys meditative undertones, each rhythm touches a distinct part of the brain. Some beats seem to carry an old-school rap undertone, while others transmit an almost psychedelic feel.
…to have a professional give you tips and pointers to aid you in your life path/journey is really one of the most valuable things a person can have – Barry Marz.
What really makes “DREAM THERAPY” a stand-out project are Barry Marz’s lyrics and delivery. On each song, the rapper pops off a rapid flow packed with thought-provoking phrases. At times, Barry Marz doesn’t even sound as if he’s giving much of an effort while he’s rapping. That’s just how natural music comes to him.
Barry Marz doesn’t shy away from touching on topics usually avoided in mainstream media. On “DREAM THERAPY,” the rapper discusses the importance of finding inner happiness, living in the moment, avoiding negative energy, and more. Whatever subject he attacks, Barry Marz approaches it with a soulful, direct style.
To kick off the album, Barry Marz does so in an incredibly dynamic way. “THIS HERE COST MONEY” showcases the rapper’s explosive flow backed by the signature introspective lyrics. Throughout the song, you can really feel Barry Marz’s personality shine through. Because Barry Marz is so unapologetically himself, you get the opportunity to connect with the artist.
Alongside powerful tracks, Barry Marz displays his versatility with slower-paced songs. Tracks like “444” are perfect to chill out alone to. A solemn piano and jazz-like tones glide through the speakers, met by distorted vocals. “444” contains elements that force you to turn inward and reflect on personal thoughts.
People tend to shy away from therapy and place a negative connotation around it – Barry Marz.
Music is in Barry Marz’s blood, and “DREAM THERAPY” is just one part of a collection of projects he’s released this year. Trust us, you’ll want to follow the rapper on Instagram to know precisely when his next album will be out (sometime later this year).
