Brooklyn’s own DeVante Myles Tells No Lies With Rythm & Rap Track Those Games
Every person, man or woman has been put in a position to be either the game player or the one to be played, no one likes or is willing to admit the latter. That is until now.
“Who hasn’t been in a situation where you wish the other person would mean what they say and say what they mean, out of my frustration rises Those Games.” DeVante says
Once again, DeVante Myles the newcomer from Brooklyn, New York keeps with the same theme of circus games and unusual antics as he delivers the visual for his latest track. His release of “Those Games” touches on the everyday bs most 20 somethings deal with in their relationships. Myles does steer away from his usual lyrical flow and gives us rhythm & rap parallel to the early days of Chris Brown but, we are blessed with a sneak peek on what is yet to come at the end of the visual. “Those Games” is the first single off of his second project “Sweet Nothings” due out early 2019.
Of course, no DeVante Myles release would be the same without making a stop at his infamous Oxford Circus. The dance battles, flashing lights, intimate setting, and urban underground vibes are the perfect match to the visual of this all too relatable song.

Imagine, a sonically euphoric musical playground, hidden deep within Hip-Hop. A place that resides in Brooklyn, NY, where lyricism and the heart of Hip-Hop’s true origins live and breathe.
At times it may seem that just like Brooklyn, Hip-Hop is in the midst of a reconstruction period known as gentrification. Losing its way to new audiences and strangers of the culture, it’s as if true lyricists are now the “black sheep” of Hip-Hop. But, if you can make your way to the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn, not far from Jay-Z’s Marcy Ave, you will find the omniscient Oxford Circus.
Created by freshman newcomer DeVante Myles, Oxford Circus is more than a movement, it is a way of life for those who may feel like an outsider, or that they don’t belong in the current state of Hip-Hop. For those who appreciate quality production, lyrics, countless bars, the beauty of punch lines, music that is way beyond its creator’s years, this is where you want to be. Conveniently all are welcome; come #jointhecircus as DeVante Myles himself often tweets.
Representing Brooklyn “till the Death” DeVante say’s rappers don’t really need to curse on their records to sound hood, being hood is a state of mind. Being Ghetto is also a state of mind however an ignorant state of mind, it is just that. DeVante Myles is against everything Ghetto so he focuses on his lyrics placing the truth within them. DeVante Myles wants to be a shining light to the youth someone that parents of the youth he creates his music for, can listen to and smile.
