Listen to "Nowadays" by Firelane Music and Media Entertainment Artist, Wayne Watts on All Streaming and Music Download Sites

"Nowadays" is a raw and brutally honest social commentary on the current climate in America. It sets out to contrast 2017 against the struggles and triumphs from previous generations. The album's instrumentation is a gumbo of not only different genres ( Blues, Jazz, Negro Spirituals, Hip Hop, Classical, and Trap) but different time periods (1930s Southern Churches, 1940s Juke Joints, 1950s Smokey Jazz Clubs, 1990s West Coast Gangsta Parties, 2000s Neo-Soul Poetry Slams, and 2010s Disenfranchised Trenches). With its lush production, intricate arrangements, and time traveling soundscapes, "Nowadays" allows a space for members of the Silent Generation, Baby Boomers, Gen X, Millennials, and Zennials to all have a seat at the family table in order to begin a much needed conversation.

Also, "Nowadays" features the single Stay Together from the Baltimore native/ Denver transplant, Hip Hop recording artist, Wayne Watts, on the millennial committed relationship experience. The track has the perfect vibe for a couple's game night filled with playing Taboo, talking trash over spades, passion-filled debates over politics & classic Hip Hop records, while ending the evening in the back of an Uber, smiling and saying, "Bae, tonight was dope for-real."
