Sharing her story in her music, the rising talent hopes to offer a platform that her fans can relate to, or just appreciate the art form. “I have always had people doubting me and bad influences from people in my school and my community… When I was younger, I had to struggle, and I try to put all that pain I have experienced into my music because I think that other people will relate to it.”

Kyy Stacks has been using her skill set to create a clean path to help her family get out of poverty, in addition to creating art that other people could relate to and reflect on. Inspiring those around her that have struggled similarly, Kyy Stacks always goes out of her way to show love to fans. “I feel like they genuinely connect with me. I think taking pictures with my fans will give them an experience that they will take with them forever and they’ll be a lifelong fan.”

The latest Kyy Stacks single, “No Keyz”, slams into the NYC hip-hop scene with plenty of energy. A hard-hitting 808 bass carries the track forward while the artists’ vocal performance puts her talent on display. Catchy flows combined with meticulously crafted melodics provide a great listening experience.

Sitting in the dimly lit theater, I had no idea what to expect as the opening credits of “The Firing Squad” began to roll. Little did I know that I was about to embark on an emotional journey that would leave me reaching for tissues and struggling to catch my breath.

The film follows the true story of three Christians facing execution by firing squad in a third world country. Directed by Timothy A. Chey, it features a stellar cast including James Barrington, Kevin Sorbo, and Cuba Gooding Jr. Each actor brings their character to life with such authenticity and depth that it’s impossible not to be fully immersed in their struggles and triumphs.

As the plot unfolded, I found myself drawn into a world of despair and desperation, but also one of unwavering faith and hope. The characters’ journey from darkness to light, from despair to redemption, resonated with me on a deeply personal level. I couldn’t help but be moved by their courage and resilience in the face of unimaginable adversity.

But it was the performances that truly stole the show. James Barrington’s portrayal of the protagonist’s internal turmoil was nothing short of mesmerizing, while Kevin Sorbo and Cuba Gooding Jr. delivered powerhouse performances that left me in awe.

And then there was the message of the film—that no matter how bleak the circumstances may seem, there is always hope. That even in our darkest moments, faith has the power to transform lives and bring about redemption. It was a message that hit me like a ton of bricks, leaving me with tears streaming down my face and a renewed sense of purpose.

As the credits rolled and the lights came up, I found myself struggling to put into words the impact that “The Firing Squad” had on me. All I could manage was, “I cried buckets of tears.” And I wasn’t alone. As I looked around the theater, I saw others wiping their eyes and exchanging emotional glances.

In the end, “The Firing Squad” wasn’t just a movie—it was an experience. An experience that left me feeling inspired, uplifted, and profoundly grateful for the power of cinema to touch the soul. And for that, I will be forever grateful.

The movie is set to premiere in the theatres worldwide on August 2, 2024. And this is definitely a must watch movie, reminding people of the strength of faith.
