When you’re so new in the industry, and you don’t have a manager or any guidance, it’s going to be very easy for you to get lost in it, or you could fuck up your entire career by signing one messed-up contract. I have artists reaching out to me every day for advice, and they’re getting contacted by these bloodsuckers. “The reason why I wanted to put ‘VULTURES’ second is it taps into the elephant in the room, which is the bloodsuckers in the music industry. It’s kind of like shooting myself before it begins, in a way!”

So, basically, what I’m saying is, ‘OK, if we’re about to really do this, just know I gave it my all.’ If you love it or if you hate it, this is it, no matter what. “On ‘DUSK,’ I’m admitting, ‘If it’s time for me to say I lost it/Just know I tried/I’ll keep that to my casket.’ Those are the very first words on the album. “It feels like gladiator music,” Boslen says, proudly-and with this track-by-track guide, he invites you to get in the ring. But these disparate elements are strategically stitched together through textured, ambient interludes and a cinematic sense of drama and grandeur.
DUSK TO DAWN FULL
In showing us who he really is, Boslen reveals the full breadth of his musical vision, as he bounds between streetwise trap bangers, wounded R&B balladry, pop-punky melodies, Afrobeats-inspired bops, vocalized guitar solos, and even a boom-bapped tribute to Vancouver-rap pioneers Rascalz (via a prominent sample of their 1997 jam “Blind Wid da Science”). So, DUSK to DAWN builds on that theory and dives into who Corben really is, and how you can turn your vulnerability into empowerment.” “We pulled a lot of inspiration from Carl Jung’s shadow theory, which says that everybody has a shadow that they’re scared to face-they’re scared to face their vulnerabilities and biggest weaknesses. “It’s a story of an individual that faces his own self-hate, or his own shadow,” Boslen tells Apple Music. With his inaugural long-player, DUSK to DAWN, Boslen drew inspiration from the all-time greats: Kanye, Cudi, Travis Scott, The Weeknd-i.e., master conceptualists who turn albums into events. You only get one opportunity to make your first full-length album, and Vancouver singer/rapper Corben Bowen-aka Boslen-has certainly made the most of his.
