Dylan Reese - Utopia
By: Trevor Siebold IG/Twitter: @musicbytrev
Seeing artists use their platforms as a way to raise awareness about injustice and inspire their followers to act has been super inspiring lately. With his newest release, ‘Utopia,’ Dylan Reese is doing just that.
Dylan Reese is currently rolling out his project ‘Rap Dylan 2' and had plans to release the third single from it this week. However, with all the injustice and hurt around the world, he felt compelled to release this one instead. The song is simple, yet covers many things that are on the minds of us all. From touching on his own privilege, to the lack of support and empathy we’re seeing from some, to his hope in humanity to bring change, this song is exactly what we needed right now.
Understanding that sometimes, things need to be put on hold for the greater good takes a certain level of selflessness and humility. We’re thankful for Dylan Reese and artists alike who are speaking out, whether from a place of leadership or allyship, helping to bring change and strive towards equality.
Lyrics That Stick:
“Tell me how we make machines so complex
But then can’t grasp peace as a concept”
