Emerging hip-hop artist DaeShawn Forrest has just released his latest single and short film of the same title, “A Moment’s Time”. The single is the first track off his forthcoming album, “Transparent 2.”

DaeShawn’s lyrical flow is flawless and fluid with bursts of syncopated rhythm. Fans will also enjoy the smooth background vocals of Raechelle T. Forrest and her R&B soulful influence. However, the story behind the music involves a different dialogue and candid communication.

“This is my most transparent, most raw, and most emotional project. I was going through the worst season of life, ever,” explained Forrest. “I was dealing with depression, suicidal thoughts, anger, and heartbreak.”

The artist added that while producing the project, he didn’t care about what people thought or expected from him. All that mattered was pouring every ounce of pain and emotion he was feeling into his music. He shared that his personal healing took place through this album.

“The short film and accompanying song represent real-world storytelling that not only reflects DaeShawn’s life, but the lives of many others,” stated Fran Briggs, Publicist to DaeShawn Forrest. “A Moment’s Time has the potential to benefit the global community.”

The 22-year-old San Francisco Bay Area native produced the single and music video for “A Moment’s Time”, and he co-directed the filming of the project with Brandon Orozco.
