CANTRELL - Gold Roses (Freestyle) [Music Video Review]

August 21, 2019 by Kreadiv Kesh in Hip-Hop, Soul, Conscious

Rating: 4 out 5

“ You have to give people their roses while they are still alive. In ‘Gold Roses’ Cantrell not only talks about his journey but the influences he has passed along the way. In this visual he uses the simple poster board to display a time line that led to his success. ‘Gold Roses’ because good or bad every year was golden. ”

    Blu Spirit - Look at Me Now [Review]

    Rating: 5 out of 5

    “Look At Blu Spirit now as he hit us with lyrical flow and dope ass energy. The whole production is full of energy and his flow is so hard to describe you just have to listen to the song to really feel his talent. ”

      Datta Boy & Ronny Bueller Feat KoKane - Outer [Review]

      August 14, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Rap, Hip-Hop, Conscious

      Rating: 4.5 out of 5

      “Oh yeah, ‘Outer” is about getting wa ... aaay out there, and enjoying what is going right in front of your face.

      Cool vibe musically and vocally this is one to fire up while firing up. A nice combination of old school, modern, and funk infused Hip-Hop.”

        Handbook - Tie My Hands [Review]

        August 13, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Hip-Hop, Conscious

        Rating: 4 out of 5

        “Poetic and poignant, ‘Tie My Hands,’ rides a steady beat and direct vocals to a message that hits home.

        This is the kind of track you need to sit quietly and digest, but it is the kind of song that is well worth the time and effort to do so.”

          “Tracks like this are important, because they highlight that you can come through whatever it is your dealing with. ‘15 Years alter’ brings a direct flow, delivered with truth and raw emotion. All without being filtered through necessary smoke and mirrors.”

            “This is a fun, jazzy track with a beat that thumbs like your heartbeat giving it a natural, hip-hop groove that is hard not to move in rhythm with.

            The vocal flow is both sweet and sexy at the same time, and lyrically it puts a new spin on being happy in love.”

              Rating: 4 out of 5

              “A dark, almost ethereal, melody and beat set the tone for a set of lyrics that come at you with a steady and emotional flow. The track unfolds like inner dialogue for the first three minutes before morphing into a statement on coping with the world. Almost feels like two songs, but poignant all the way through. ”

                  “Just like Michaels’ heart shaped shades we are loving the simple yet relaxed visual for “Stuck On You”. Accompanied by infused guitar strings Michael secludes himself as he talks about a love he once had.”

                                “Bold and defiant ‘No Limit’ deploys a fast flow and a direct set of lyrics that challenge and enlighten. The accent adds to the attitude of the single and the chorus is sung with emotion and intrigue. ”

                                  “The video is the perfect compliment to this track. Without it I am unsure the lyrics would resonate as well as they do, but the beat is steady and the performance engaging enough to hold my focus start to finish.”

                                      “Lyrics that hooked me early, and a flow that hits hard with the beat, makes this track one that I could not escape from through multiple listens.

                                      ’Vennom Passion Sociiety’ is the kind of single that leaves you pondering and thinking long after the last beat. ”

                                        “A self-reflective and honest track that delivers powerful words in a direct style. This is a track that feels like part confession, but they are also words and sentiments that serve us all. Truly Conscious Hip Hop.”
