The Reading, PA Native and Former Rhythm & Flow Contestant Speaks Out Against Fakes and Lames in a Horn-Heavy New Video Single

“With a controlled vocal cadence and effortless flow, you are bound to be a fan upon your first listen.” – Grungecake

“She has the type of voice that you could never confuse for anyone else’s.” – Def Pen

The Song:

With an authoritative voice that leaps out of speakers, rising rapper Beanz has bars for days. Allowing herself to introduce herself, Beanz shares “Trending Topic,” her new single. Blessed with a horn section that speaks to Beanz’ Latina heritage, “Trending Topic” is a boisterous banger, offering the perfect canvas for Beanz to talk her smack. Rapping with an audible sneer, Beanz spends the duration of “Trending Topic” backing up her bonafides and taking swipes at those who try to fake it to make it: “These b*tches week, no stamina/I stunt seven days a week, no calendar/I be trill, you know I keeps it thorough/I got the whole world shouting “who’s that girl?”

In the video, Beanz gathers a crew in city backstreets, before hopping on the front of an ATV for some nighttime riding. “Trending Topic” is Beanz first new single since September 2020’s “Pressure,” which has over 450k streams on Spotify alone.

Born and raised in Reading, Pennsylvania, a mid-sized city located between Philadelphia and Harrisburg, Beanz started on her artistic path at the age of 12, when she started writing poetry to escape her household struggles. As she grew older, her poems turned into rap songs, and she developed a reputation as the best rapper in her city. Beanz brought her artistry to a larger audience when she joined the cast of Rhythm & Flow, Netflix’s first-ever reality competition show. Though she didn’t win, Beanz became a fan favorite, winning the affections of many with her lyricism and take-no-prisoners attitude. Since Rhythm & Flow, Beanz has been active, releasing successful singles like “Can’t Call It” (over 1 million streams across platforms) and collaborating with Dizzy Wright for “Sick Of Complaining.”

Ready to take her game to the next level in 2021, the artist of Puerto Rican descent is preparing a deluge of new music, including a forthcoming project. Haters take note: there’s no stopping Beanz season.

With a father who was incarcerated, her mother assumed a lot of the parenting role in her household until her teenage years. Coming from an inner-city background, Beanz began to develop a love for hip hop and decided to take her artistry seriously in pursuing it as a profession. She was known in her hometown as “that girl who was spitting rhymes in the back of the bus”. As expected, her talent came natural, she began studying the art of lyricism and began perfecting her craft into the wordsmith you hear today.

After years of releasing videos, viral freestyles and several mixtapes, Beanz was asked in 2019 to be a participant in Netflix’s 1st ever music contestant show, Rhythm and Flow. The show became a huge worldwide sensation and trended #1 for 4wks in a row. Among over 50 contestants who would be eliminated, Beanz left her impression as one of the fan favorites despite her not winning the show, earning her a handful of notable publications and write ups highlighting her effortless lyricism and wordplay. Her first single “Cant Call It” released late July, and has already garnered over 1 million streams on DSPS, and the video over 500k views. The future looks beyond bright for Beanz, as the world needs more intellects should can make conceptual music that will stand the test of time and get us all through, especially with the climate of society in these transcending times. Look for Beanz to garner the attention and large success she is destined for in the coming year.
