Mustafa Releases New Song ‘Name of God’

Mustafa is back with his first new music since the release of his album When Smoke Rises in 2021. The Toronto artist co-produced ‘Name of God’ with Aaron Dessner and Simon Hessman. Check it out via the self-directed video below.

Mustafa shared the following statement about the new song:

I never felt like the Nubian prince my father seen in me through his tinted lens. I try their dance, their prayer- I always fall short.

& Gods name wasn’t always related to beauty for me, but to hopelessness, this Islam we share and Allah we call for while witnessing a constant violence that continues to
bind us, I don’t think I ever felt completely Muslim among other Muslims,

All these sub-beliefs like borders. My aunts in all their wisdom and narrowness-one Sufi spinning into remembrance, one refuting the taking of a photograph.

When my big brother was killed in what will always feel like yesterday, knowing the suspected murderer was someone he held as a friend, someone he prayed with- it led me to believe that maybe his love was his end? Maybe where there is no love, parting from love keeps us alive? Maybe ending in love is the only way to actually begin? I don’t know.
The only clear memory from the days of his death were my parents reciting in unison, “oh Allah, we accept his passing, we accept what you ordained.”

I’m desperate to love God like them.

Our faith and our hearts are too often our demise- I know a field of young niggas dreaming that can testify to this. For better or worse we’ll uncover every bone beneath our hollow laughter, our confused affection; maybe its revealed in our final gasp for meaning.

Until then.

Bismillah, In the Name of God, 10.17.23

Nailah Hunter Announces Debut Album ‘Lovegaze’, Shares New Single ‘Finding Mirrors’

Los Angeles-based harpist and multi-instrumentalist Nailah Hunter has announced her debut LP, Lovegaze. It’s slated to arrive on January 12 via Fat Possum, and today’s announcement comes with the release of the new single ‘Finding Mirrors’. Check out its Dillon Howl–directed video below.

“This song began with a bass line, which is not usually how I approach writing,” Hunter said of ‘Finding Mirrors’ in a statement. “Of all the tracks on the record, it is the most purposeful departure from the comfort I found in making ambient music in the past. Letting the song exist in the form that it came to me was a healing reminder that I can make anything I want to. The song is about seeing yourself without warning.”

“While I was writing Lovegaze, I was thinking about humanity’s propensity to destroy the things we love,” Hunter explained. “I was thinking about ancient ruins and structures that once provided shelter but no longer do. There’s beauty to be found in ruins, too.”

1. Strange Delights

9. Garden

Searows Unveils New Song ‘Funny’

Searows, the moniker of Kentucky-born, Oregon-raised musician Alec Duckart, has shared the new song ‘Funny’. It’s taken from his upcoming EP End of the World, which is out November 10 on Last Recordings on Earth. Take a listen below.

“It took me over two years and a lot of convincing to even consider releasing this song,” Duckard said of ‘Funny’ in a statement. “Part of my resistance to finishing it came from feeling like I’ve been writing about the same things over and over again for years now. The song is essentially about anxiety and the things you repeat to yourself to try and get out of that anxiety, which is a theme of a lot of the songs on the EP. I think the reason I keep writing about the same feelings over years of my life is the same reason they keep resonating for people. I have not figured everything out and neither has anyone else. I guess it’s comforting as both the writer and the listener to be reminded of that.”

Understanding sweep coins: The currency of the game in sweepstake casinos

Sweepstake Casinos have emerged as a popular form of gaming for many, especially in locations like the US and Canada.

They provide players who are located in states and provinces that do not permit legal iGaming activities with the opportunity to enjoy the next best thing. They are sites that offer the same types of games – such as slots and table games – but without the element of risk. Players are able to play without using real money, as they can use a virtual currency that has been specifically designed for sweepstakes play.

These are known as sweep coins, and be used in various ways to enhance and maximize each session that is experienced. This full list of all sweepstakes casinos will use these coins in one way or another, with it being the common feature that they all share.

However, before getting started and playing at a casino that uses this model, it is important to fully understand what sweep coins are, how they can be used, and how they can be obtained.

What are sweep coins?

As mentioned already, sweep coins are the virtual coins that are unique to sweepstake casinos. Although they are virtual, they should not be confused with cryptocurrency, as they are very different. They do not have any monetary value attached to them, nor are they considered legal tender outside of a sweepstake casino.

These coins can only be used when on a social casino, with their main purpose to allow players to play their favorite games without risking any real money on them. This reduces any risk that can normally be associated with gambling, thus allowing players to have an enjoyable and entertaining experience with each title that they choose to play.

How to obtain sweep coins

If you wish to use a sweepstake casino, it is highly advantageous to understand how to obtain sweep coins. There are numerous ways in which they can be collected, with some being more obvious and easier than others.

When signing up to a sweepstake casino, you will usually receive an allotted total to begin any gaming session. However, at this stage, a promotional bonus is often offered that allows players to purchase more sweep coins to play with. These can come in various forms, but they often provide a large number, meaning the amount of playing time a player can receive can be greatly increased. Additionally, other methods include logging in daily, purchasing sweep coins through the site’s system, or even through other promotional tools such as newsletters that may be sent to a player’s email address.

Playing games with sweep coins

The main purpose of sweep coins is that they are used to play games. They are the virtual currency that allows a player to be able to enjoy the various slots and table options that are available in the same way that real money would. Players can use the currency to make their “bets”, but as they have no monetary value attached to them, they bypass any rules that are against real money wagering and the regulations that surround the gambling laws that are in place.

Buying prizes with sweep coins

Sweep coins are not only for playing games, though. They can be used at a sweepstake casino to buy prizes that are on offer. Prizes can range and be extremely varied depending on the social casino and what they decide to make available. They can not be used elsewhere and have to be used in the casino, with cash not redeemable.

Verdict

Now that you have an understanding of what sweep coins are and how they are used at a sweepstake casino, the experience that is obtained should be greatly enhanced if you ever decide to use on.

Remember, they are a unique virtual currency that is exclusive to the casino that is being used, and can not be transferred or redeemed for money. They allow you to play games in the same way real money wagering options allow, but they come without the risk of losing money as they have no value attached to them. There are various ways in which they can be obtained, too, thus allowing players to have enjoyable experiences regularly and often.
