Zach Witness- Can't Get It Out of My Head [Review] April 24, 2024 by Kreadiv Kesh in Dance, Pop, EDM Rating: 4 out of 5 People sample all the time but the sample usually still sounds like the original.

You will find yourself with a burst of energy every time the beat hits. — Kreadiv Kesh [LA On Lock Blogger]

The song is cute, dark, and direct. — Kreadiv Kesh [LA On Lock Blogger]
Deegie- Third Time's a Charm (Tom) [Review] March 06, 2024 by Kreadiv Kesh in Commercial, Pop, Rock Review: 3 out of 5 Third Time’s a Charm (Tom) reminds me of retro 80s and 90s love. Deegie sings about college love which most people usually only focus on high school romance. The song is Pop with a guitar sounds that gives it the Rock feel.
