SZN 8, Ep 4: A Grand Rising on a Smoke Break | Music Review with Ghane

Y’all, we finally did it! 🙌 Season 8, Episode 4 of The Real Life of Jo just brought us our first lady artist on the show, and I’m hyped because Ghane absolutely delivered!
We tapped into two of her songs--“Smoke Break” and “Grand Rising”—and let me just say, this was right up my alley. Smooth, soulful, and perfect for vibing out.

Music Review: “Smoke Break” & “Grand Rising” by Ghane“Smoke Break”? It’s giving laid-back self-care, like pausing the chaos of life just to catch your breath. The beat is chill, her voice is captivating, and the lyrics hit home. It’s one of those tracks you put on when you need a moment of peace, whether you’re actually on a smoke break or not. 🚬✨
Then we got “Grand Rising”, and whew--this one spoke to my soul. It’s got that wake-up-and-feel-empowered energy, like you’re manifesting good vibes before your feet even hit the floor. The production is clean, and Ghane’s delivery is flawless.

Small World Moment: Ghane & Herbology!Okay, here’s the cutest part—remember Herbology from Season 7, Episode 1, with his track "Opportunity Cost"? Well, he’s married to Ghane! 🥹💍
How sweet is that?! Two talented artists supporting each other and making waves. I love seeing power couples like this, especially when they’re both creating such dope music.

Final Thoughts: Instant Replay Vibes ✅For me, Ghane’s music is an instant playlist add. Both "Smoke Break" and "Grand Rising" are the kind of songs that you play on repeat because they just fit any mood. Whether you’re winding down, getting ready, or reflecting, Ghane’s got you covered.
