FYRA is a vocalist hailing from Los Angeles. Having spent over a decade writing and perfecting his vocal sound in a gamut of musical outfits, FYRA is now releasing his own music. His single, “Now or Never.” A pop selection that has a catchy melody and solid groove. Frya explains, “I’ve always been drawn to things that are melody driven, but I also want to make music that can be played very, very loud!” On “Now or Never” he joined forces with Jessica Jolia and Noreik Thascool to create a relaxed pop R&B/dance track. Jolia is an American recording artist, songwriter, musician and educator. She is known for her remarkable tone and five octave vocal range. Thascool is a rapper working with Productive Culture and The Dope Spot Studios in partnership with his own collective Grand Life, to bring together programs, entertainment, and workshops for the surrounding communities of Pomona CA. Together they have created something that has groove (FYRA), seductively sweet (Jolia) and razor sharp (Thascool). That’s the short of it!

Positives:

A nice blend of male/female singing and a rhythmic bridge from Thascool, all set to full productions and a solid groove beat.

Bottom Line:

FYRA’s new single, “Now or Never” is an exciting and versatile track that has elements of R&B singing with pop melodies and a relaxed dance beat. Frya, Jolia and Thascool all keep their own styles as they join to form a cohesive musical trio. The music has an even feel that goes through different levels of intensity. The melody is sung first by FYRA, with his R&B inflections, followed by Jolia’s soulful rendition. Presenting it in this manner really gives life to the melody and makes the music texturally interesting. The chorus is both vocalists singing together, creating a cogent full sound. Thascool takes the bridge to lay down a rhyme that is rhythmical and builds with the music. Hard core sensual, “Now or Never” measures up with slick beats and seductive lyrics all highlighted by versatile performances.
