Anonymous XI - Ghost [Review]
Rating: 4.5 out of 5
“Straight up. When you’re talking top shelf — be it liquor or music — you don’t need a bunch of unnecessary stuff tossed into the mix. ‘Ghost’ is the kind of track that proves that with a straight-up beat, and a steady linear flow that hits with truth and passion and an underlying wisdom. All without any fancy embellishments.”

My_Kayla ft. Dre Walton - Right There [Music Video Review]
Rating: 4 out of 5
“Love, lust, and affairs of the heart are complicated, no matter the genetic makeup of those involved. This is a soulful infused modern rap story about those complications delivered in a stripped down flow by My_Kayla and sung to R&B perfection by Dre Walton.
The contrast between the two voices is perfection and adds a level of intrigue to this single.”
Sean Stacks - That Realism (#FactsOnly) [Review]
Rating: 3.5 out of 5
“I dig the writing and the vocal tone of this track, but I do wish the mix had been tweaked. The backing chant often seems louder than the flow, and for me that was an unnecessary distraction.
The message here is tight and meaningful, which is why I wish the vocals were brought forward and featured harder. However, these lyrics are so worth hearing that this track makes my worthwhile list just the same.”

Marc Haize - Money On The Way [Review]
Rating: 4 out of 5
“Really dig the jazz opening and the piano is dope throughout. Often autotune makes it tough to stand out as unique, but ‘Money On The Way’ avoids that by changing up the flow with verses that are sang with autotune and a direct rap flow. The writing is sharp and overall this is a solid single worth listening to over and over again.”

Rating: 4 out of 5
“Delivering an interesting structure to keeps this track fresh from start to finish, Toronto’s Nanu Aldina raps about his fulfillment as an artist, over the top of hard beats before switching up the flow by singing an extremely intimate chorus.
The combination of soft melody and heavy rap flows work well to deliver a set of lyrics you can dig into.”

Rating: 4.5 out of 5
“Begins with an almost nursery rhyme like vibe that gives a bit of creep factor before a sick beat drops down with a bold, hardcore flow that hits so fast it take several listens to get the full effect.
’Awaken’ is a track that stands out among a crowded feel with a unique, yet engaging sound that thumps with a hearty bass line.”

Emotion invoking and musically appealing, Big OC has something to be proud of with this piece.”
