Artist Spotlight: Blackbear

Okay, so my friends would be able to tell you I might have a slight Blackbear addiction, but it's for good reason! Blackbear is a singer from Los Angeles, he'd describe his music genre as vibe, and if you listened to him you'd definitely figure out why. He goes from singing about drugs, fame, women, love, heartbreak, life, fun times, but that's only scratching the surface! I find that his music is very emotional, strong, and I think of him as the only artist whose music can make me happy, rowdy, can make me cry, and think. I found Blackbear, whose name is Mat Musto, around 2013 featured on a Machine Gun Kelly song. Since I downloaded his Sex mixtape, I’ve been hooked. To this date he has one mixtape, three extended plays one being an acoustic album, (EP) two studio albums, and a large amount of singles. (I’m at 30 right now) I’ve gone to 2 shows of his this year, and I will say I’ve never enjoyed a show more than I’ve enjoyed a Blackbear show. I’ve done warped tour twice, I’ve seen my favorite bands in a multitude of shows, and I’ve done self-help fest, and I’m looking at going next year as well, and I can say with the greatest confidence I’ve never had more fun than I did while I sang my heart out with everyone else in the crowd. And for the record I know the lyrics to nearly every song he sings, just throwing that out there, I don’t think I’d be able to pick out my favorite song either I need to put a lot of thought into it. If you’re into R&B vibes, emotionally raw lyrics, a hot beat, and you just like good music look up Blackbear. He’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but some of you will thank me after looking him up.
