Growing up on the outskirts of Memphis, Brasel was exposed to unhealthy lifestyles and eventually surrendered to bad habits. After being dragged down time after time, the rapper found himself in a jail cell, wishing to live life and strive.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">Once he&#8217;s found his calling, he put his everything into rapping and creating music that has the power to help, not just entertain. &#8216;Destiny: Vol. 1&#8217; combines catchy hooks and empowering lyrics with &#8216;All I Got&#8217; as a prime example: &#8220;It&#8217;s a cold world, but that&#8217;s alright, we&#8217;re going to make it through the hard times,&#8221; Brasel ensures his fans they are not alone in this.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">For someone who has looked the devil straight into his eyes, Ty Brasel managed to come out of the dark tunnel with a purpose and an audience that is listening. On &#8216;Call Me Up,&#8217; he says, &#8216;there&#8217;s a war in my mind&#8217; while offering a helping hand &#8216;if you need anyone to listen to you, call me up.&#8217;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">For anyone craving a reality check with some hard-hitting beats, &#8216;Destiny: Vol. 1&#8217; is for you.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-spotify wp-block-embed-spotify wp-embed-aspect-21-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: Destiny: Vol. 1\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"352\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/0njnGUwGmixvpHzL01vxxC?si=wSy7ygcHSPumq4wpSHKI3g&#038;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8216;Destiny: Vol. 1&#8217; from Ty Brasel is bound to challenge the classic themes of hip-hop.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":48,"featured_media":73268,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"advanced_seo_description":"'Destiny: Vol. 1' from Ty Brasel is bound to challenge the classic themes of hip-hop.","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"jetpack_seo_schema_type":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[24321,21448,7,21455,9,21458,21445],"tags":[1813,28545,144,77,18471,116,28544],"class_list":["post-73267","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-album-of-the-week","category-album-reviews","category-music","category-new-albums","category-new-releases","category-quick-album-reviews","category-reviews","tag-album-review","tag-destiny-vol-1","tag-new-album","tag-new-release","tag-polly-havelock","tag-review","tag-ty-brasel"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p5yMhl-j3J","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":79773,"url":"https:\/\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/2023\/01\/new-album-ty-brasel-transcendent\/","url_meta":{"origin":73267,"position":0},"title":"NEW ALBUM: Ty Brasel &#8216;TRANSCENDENT&#8217;","author":"Polly Havelock","date":"17\/01\/2023","format":false,"excerpt":"Memphis-born hip-hop IVAV recording artist Ty Brasel builds on his astonishing catalog of three successful studio albums with an overall 85 million streams with a new fourth record, 'TRANSCENDENT.'
