New Music Critique: SiBi

South African hip-hop artist SiBi has a consistent vision, speaking her mind about relatable topics, real issues and feelings––she’s an individual with high standards and a point of view. And her recordings, while in need of work, allow us to hear what this artist could one day become. “Nightfall,” with its mournful, introspective beat, allows SiBi to present an engaging flow about moving on from a failing relationship. One thing handicaps the song, however: her vocal tone doesn’t really pop with enough tonality to rise above the track’s clamor, though it is creatively mounted. “Same Reason” and “Crown” are better in this regard, but we suggest she experiment until she finds the microphone that loves her voice.
