BMAR | ‘Last Breath’ , Blending Assorted Flows With Perfection
With his latest release, ‘Last Breath,’ up-and-coming rapper BMAR proves he deserves some major respect in the hip-hop community. The Orlando-based musician intricately sews in a multitude of different styles and flows throughout the track. ‘Last Breath‘ gives BMAR a chance to show off his unique musical creativity with the world.
BMAR’s stage name derives from his real name, Brandon Martinez. The rapper received the nickname “BMAR” as a kid growing up in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, and it stuck with him into adulthood.
BMAR, who has been producing and crafting music for five years, takes your ears for a journey with ‘Last Breath.’ As he expresses some of the darkest points in his life, BMAR combines rap and R&B styles in an intriguing and inventive way.
At Rap Fiesta, we were able to catch up with BMAR and get his insight on the inspiration behind ‘Last Breath.’
I was questioning myself along with certain life events and wasn’t sure if I could handle it – BMAR
BMAR didn’t let the darkness overtake him, though. Instead, the artist took that energy and poured it into his music, blessing us with the song ‘Last Breath.’
Through those challenges, though, I learned that you have to experience the dark in order to truly appreciate the light – BMAR
The beat of ‘Last Breath’ comes in powerfully, with a multitude of intense 808’s immediately following one another. The rhythm continues to highlight a heavy bass complemented by snare rolls and high-pitched piano chords.
From start to finish, BMAR hypnotizes you with his multiple vocal overlaps of angelic runs. The musician’s vocal runs highlight the beat in a way that’s unexpected but smooth.
Perhaps the most impressing element of ‘Last Breath’ is BMAR’s constantly alternating flows. The Orlando rapper switches from singing, extended vocal runs, fast-paced rap, and an emo-type rap all in one song. It almost sounds as if there are multiple people on the track based on the diverse flows.
Although BMAR switches up his flow and singing style throughout the song, the transition between each change is insanely fluid. Each alternate style is equally as impressive and unexpected as the last. Because the pace of ‘Last Breath’ is so fast, we recommend listening to the track two times to appreciate BMAR’s unique musical style.
The music video for ‘Last Breath’ is just as captivating as the song itself. With mysterious edits and unsettling visual elements, BMAR’s music video is sure to have your attention. The music video’s eye-catching edits sync with BMAR’s echoey vocals and emotional lyrics perfectly.
BMAR’s ‘Last Breath’ is a track you have to listen to at a loud volume for the best vibe. With the volume cranked, you’re guaranteed to find your new favorite song.
We’re looking forward to everything BMAR is about to bring in the future. In the spring, the musician plans to release a new project entitled ‘Our Grace Obedienty Death (OGOD).’
