Javier Starks & Matthew Shell Offer ‘Faces Of Change’ On Their New EP

Javier Starks and Matthew Shell release their new EP, ‘Faces Of Change (MTS Edition)’.

‘Faces Of Change (FOC)’ is an EP from GRAMMY-winning album producer, Matthew Shell, and emcee, educator, and sustainability ambassador, Javier Starks.

Starks blends thoughtful, introspective rhymes over a fusion of Jazz, Hip-Hop, R&B, and Rock.

Previously unreleased on streaming platforms, ‘FOC’ debuts to listeners who have been craving more music from Javier since performances and collaborations with artists such as Robert Glasper, Substantial, Greg Hutchinson, and others.

‘Faces Of Change’, like all of Javier’s music, offers an alternative to the destructive themes often associated with Rap music.

Like many overlooked artists in the genre, he offers positive messages that range from his relationship with God, personal struggles, and perseverance, all without the use of profanity.

His unique outlook, combined with the lush soundscapes Matthew produces on ‘FOC’, is refreshing.

‘Faces Of Change’ features appearances from Jazz and Hip Hop artists including Substantial, Kenny McNeil, Marcus Singleton, Bomani Armah, Trey Eley, and more.

‘FOC’ is now streaming on all digital streaming platforms and also Bandcamp.
