Brooklyn-based singer-songwriter Sam Rappaport releases his new single titled “Diorama.” The track marks the artist’s first release since March 2024.
Sam Rappaport grew up in Los Angeles, and now pursues his musical career in Bushwick, Brooklyn. His sound draws from multiple genres. Most notably, he shows inspiration from contemporary pop, folk, rock, and soul. Rappaport has a soft, whimsical sounding vocal style. It’s something comparable to Michael Bublé or John Mayer in its softness and pitch.
“Diorama” explores all the unique nuances of Sam Rappaport’s voice and vision. The track opens up rather smoothly, with notes of contemporary jazz but with a modern undertone. A soft piano melody carries the tune to its heights and to its valleys. Rappaport’s soothing vocals and lyrics fall perfectly along the instruments throughout the entirety of the tune.
The track explores Sam’s inner fears, loves, and life experiences. “Diorama” refers to a layout of all of what makes up oneself. Sam wants to study his own diorama, who he truly is, what makes him who he is. What is he afraid of and what are the fundamental aspects of his person. What does he love, desire and need, and why?
My dad used to take me to the Natural History Museum growing up, and I would love looking at the dioramas. I started thinking, what if there was a diorama for my life and fears, what scenes would it show? So, I guess the main concept is reflection—organizing all one’s little traumas into a diorama for public viewing.
