EB Rebel - Buenas Noches (Official Video)
Rising NYC based, Dallas born alternative rap / electronic artist EB Rebel is pleased to announce a brand new release with the arrival of ‘Buenas Noches’ (28th Feb), lifted from the upcoming EP ‘Play At Your Own Risk’ due in spring this year.
‘Buenas Noches’ is a thundering, off kilter track, allowing EB’s lyrical flow to flit between tones, at times blistering with intensity, at others brooding and ominous. They say: "I wrote this song after a really good show. The audience’s reception had me feeling good and really inspired me to go home and write. As an artist, you do your best work in the night hours, grinding while everyone else is sleep. That’s what the first verse is about. Working, sacrificing, all for that feel you get on stage, or when someone hears your music. Second verse is just having a little fun. Talking about what comes with the lifestyle.”
After graduating from college with a Bachelors in Legal Studies, life led EB Rebel to create music. Rebel always had aspirations of a musical career, but decided to choose a more tangible profession in the legal field. Thanks to the plummeting economy, and their burning desire to create, EB Rebel decided to skip law school to become a musical artist. While creating multiple beats a day, they began to find their voice as both a producer, and an artist.After submitting their music to the Raw Dallas showcase committee, and getting a response almost instantly, EB was convinced music was their true calling. The breakthrough for EB Rebel would come in 2015. Rebel felt compelled to act after the murders of Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown. Rebel would write a Black Lives Matter anthem they hoped would inspire the movement.
In May 2016, Rebel released the single and video for “Don’t Care”, the lead single from their EP “TRANCE”. After sharing the single with BLM activist DeRay McKesson, the song began to spread. The anthem landed on DFW outlet Central Track, and was featured in the national publication Afropunk. Within a week, the song would make it to the team of “Stay Woke,” a BET documentary directed by Laurens Grant and produced by Jesse Williams. The documentary aired on BET on May 26, 2016. The soundtrack also featured hip hop heavyweights such as J.Cole and Kendrick Lamar. Since then, Rebel has released a number of singles, which have accumulated over half a million streams.
They have gone on to gain the attention of national publications and brands such as Afropunk, EARMILK, BET, MTV, Sofar Sounds, and Bose!
