Daz Rinko

With some pitched down humming that harmonizes soaring synths, Daz Rinko’s “Following Love” takes flight. Joined by a punchy beat and a funk bass line, the Memphis artist raps in sing-song about heartbreak. The hook, which repeats the mantra that you “Can’t keep following love,” spills across the song with fuzzy distortion and reverb, countered by a clear female backing vocal. Daz’s underwater bridge takes aim at the shorty who made him feel this way with lines like, “You ain’t got no conscience girl, you ain’t got no lovin’ girl.”

It was written after a particularly bad break up, Daz tells Mass Appeal. “We actually broke it off a day before my last tape dropped. I really tried to take from all my past relationships while writing it in its entirety, though.”

The melodies and tones, produced by Donato, are reminiscent of The Pharcyde’s “Runnin’,” evoking a similar vibe about similar subject matter. Daz ties his sound in with Goldlink’s future bounce wave, a bright, danceable genre-blending sound with rap at its core. Watch for a new Daz Rinko EP to drop sometime soon. - Mass Appeal

Daz Rinko is one of our favorite emerging rappers in the underground scene. The Memphis born and bred artist has been quiet for the past couple months but switched it up for a hot sec on his new track "Following Love" produced by Donato.

The media portrays political messages that do not always include the hard facts of what is truly taking place behind the camera. Today there’s plenty of talks about police brutality and racism, which have always been relevant issues in our country. The lack of authenticity was caught by Daz Rinko, revealing his thoughts on the subject matter on his track ‘SOS.’

The Memphis rapper features theMIND on ‘SOS’ with a soulful and optimistic approach in human equality. Regardless of how difficult it may be to stay strong through these misfortunes is essential. The message behind the song is to never give into the system and to always keep fighting through the hardships placed on people in today’s society.

In our hot take, blink-and-you-missed it society, we tend to spend an unhealthy amount of time and attention on trivial things and, worse yet, on analyzing those trivial things. All of us—particularly those of us who spend an inordinate amount of our days searching for great rap music on the Internet, in clubs, in studios, or wherever it lives—could do well to take a step back and constantly remind ourselves what’s most important in our lives (there’s a great parable about this sort of perspective that my father used to share with me every so often involving a professor, golf balls, pebbles, sand, and beer).

Music, of course, is hugely important to so many of us in maintaining our happiness and sanity, but the analysis of music and culture, while potentially illuminating and important for pushing our thinking forward, can sap one of the most indefinable art forms of its healing powers.

"I don’t really know what to say/Put the radio on this when you had a bad day"

Memphis rapper Daz Rinko’s “Vibe Wit Me” isn’t a cure all, but it is the sort of song that puts music’s palliative function first and foremost, a would be release from daily difficulties. “Vibe Wit Me” likely won’t change your life, but it should make your weekend better. - Pigeons & Planes

With the recent announcement of his forthcoming EP, LIFTED, Daz Rinko released the first single titled “Come Again“. Finding nice flows over upbeat R.O.M production, Rinko tells a story of a woman in his life and how they grew together, and how if they separate he still wants her in his life no matter what. This track is another example of Rinko showing his versatility, attacking beats of fused genres. Stay tuned for updates on his forthcoming EP.

Daz Rinko began as a Soundcloud Diggin find a couple weeks back but now we’re proud to premiere his new animated music video for “Angel”.

Like i’ve mentioned before, if you like Goldlink and his dance-infused, bouncy sound, you’ll be glad I put you onto Memphis’ Daz Rinko.

This single will be included on Daz’ upcoming L.I.F.T.E.D. EP, due out this summer. - Fashionably-Early

Memphis MC Daz Rinko has dropped an animated video for his popular love letter song, Angel. Over Planet Giza’s bounce hop beat that’ll get the party started, Daz spits about a borderline goddess that he’s been infatuated with since 10th grade. With music like this, I’m sure she’s hit up Daz by now.

Rinko took an animated approach, going to Andrew McGinnis of Gnarlificent, who was the creator of this video.

Daz Rinko sounds likes he trying to score some points on “Angel,” by loosely dedicating his new single to the woman of his desires. Listing out her hometown, likes and dislikes, the Memphis MC lays out all the reasons he’s jonesing for his heavenly’s lady’s love, doing so in style over a progressive dance groove from producer Planet Giza that never stops getting better. Considering this brow-wetting jam from Rinko’s upcoming spring release is bound to earn thousands of spins from groovy souls across the world, said female should be pretty flattered.

Nice move, Daz. Nice move. - UPROXX - The Smoking Section

Up and coming Memphis artist Daz Rinko channels his inner GoldLink for his bouncy new offering, titled “Angel”.

Every guy, at some point, has encountered that girl that spends so much time in his head, that she should be paying rent. Daz vividly and playfully illustrates just that, in this new, Planet Giza-produced loosie.

Be on the lookout for Daz’s upcoming EP, due later this year. For now, enjoy “Angel”. - RESPECT Mag

Hopefully this’ll help get you through the rest of your week, to the blessed lituation that we often call the weekend. #TYBG.

3. Daz Rinko – “VIBE WIT ME” With Soulection spurring along its future bounce “Sound of Tomorrow,” the aesthetic is seeping into all corners of hip-hop. Indeed, it is a sound that everyone’s trying to bandwagon, and often imitation is not the best form of flattery. But Memphis’s Daz Rinko’s execution on “VIBE WIT ME” takes on a larger scope. He’s shaken any kind of Southern intonation, instead opting for a dynamic and spry beat by Soulection producer PYRMDPLAZA, proving that musical precedents don’t necessarily have to box you in. - The Hundreds

Memphis based emcee, Daz Rinko has been under the radar for a bit, delivering buoyant rhymes over Soulection-esque instrumentation. He just released a new track entitled, “Angel” as a follow up to his last hit, “Vibe Wit Me.”

The upbeat instrumentation, and graceful background vocals compliment his GoldLink like flow and moxie. Stream “Angel” below and keep an eye out for this Memphis artist in 2016. - Artistic Manifesto

After reaching 30,000 total plays on Soundcloud, Daz Rinko blesses us with a new track titled “VIBE WITH ME“. Continuing with his progressive beat choice, Rinko chooses another beat from Soulection, successfully delivering the good vibes he preaches in all of his tracks. Rinko has the chance to set the Memphis rap scene in a new direction, and ultimately on a new level of music. As we move into the future, keeping an eye on artists like Rinko is imperative.

Memphis rapper Daz Rinko doesn’t sound like what you might expect from a Memphis rapper—no discernible Southern drawl as he hops energetically across producer PYRMDPLAZA’s future beat thump on recent single “Ran.” It’s a breath of intriguing (if perhaps not “fresh,” since the Internet makes all ideas accessible always) air from one of rap’s most storied and pillaged cities, a sign of the inevitable intermingling of ideas and a reminder that it’s never what you do but how it’s done. - Pigeons & Planes

In what seems like a pure stream of quality output, Memphis rapper Daz Rinko releases a new track titled “Zendaya“. It is clear who this song is dedicated too, and Daz addresses the reasons why she should be with him. Chris McClenney laced the beat, adding to the unique soundscape of Daz’s catalogue.
