To illustrate the essence of the song stated above, where the glimpses of hope and persistence are reflected in the song, “I'm standing ten toes down, a fresh new cup, got a purpose, raise the curtains, center stage, I'm suited up.” is a line followed by Sterling Duns where he talks about his years of tears and struggles and it finally paying off.
"Humility" by Sterling Duns and Joe Kenney, recently released on 23rd January 2025, is a head-bopping fusion of rap and piano. The song has deep lyrics paired with the beats pertaining to attachment, dreams, and inculcating humility as the title suggests. It paints a motivating narrative of grounding oneself and seeing every day as a new opportunity. "The lyrics, conventionally speaking, is an interesting contrast with the style of narration selected, that is, rap in this case."
Both artists are Philly-based, Kenney being from greater Philadelphia and Duns from West Philadelphia. Joe Kenney is an award-winning and a renowned pianist and plays the role of music instruction and artist management. Sterling Duns on the other side is a hip hop artist and a producer. Furthermore, founder of the hip-hop group Hardwork Movement, as well as City Love, a musical group. A collaboration between these two geniuses has led to the birth of a banger, namely, Humility this year. Don't believe us?
