“A smooth R&B groove might not be what you first think of when it come sto an inpirational and uplifting track but Ladi Seoul manages to create exactly that on this track. ‘Eyes On The Prize,’ is about maintaining your focus on the goals you are chasing even when the road gets tough. The vocals are smooth and genuine and come with a rich tone that soothes the soul.”
“I really liked this one after that intro which for me felt out of place with the rest of the groove and smooth delivery.
M’Lynn has a nice sultry vocal delivery that carried me along and I like the beat behind it for the most part though a few of the transitions felt a bit clunky by comparison to the rest of the groove.”
“Kenny Sharp cuts us up with the gleaming blade that is ‘Smooth.’ This Retro Funk/ Soul number has a bit of Bruno, but also some Hip-Hop-esque verve that reminded me of Yung Grvy.
This is a one of those tracks that lodges in your gut and reverborates out to your bones with the groove. I dare you to listen to this and not be persuaded to move to the Funk.”
“Julia Raye does a good job of straddling he genre line with her latest release, ‘Give You Up.’ There is certainly a Contemporary R&B vibe though this track also has a more Commercial Dance Pop sound.
The track is about nothing someone isn’t good for you but being unable to deny your feelings despite that fact. ”
“L’MArco and AshtnMrtn team to give us ‘Jubilant People,’ a Reggae track that speaks to the times and the strong spirit of people who refuse to be controlled. Rhythmic and with a infectious beat this track is one that lingers in the mind long after that last note. ”
“A Jazz influenced Soul track, ‘Lose’ offers a chance to sit back and relax as you contemplate fate and the times in life when no matter what you do things just do not work out how you’d hoped. Isa Y clearly has an old soul and this track has a bit of that old school crooner to go along with the smooth musical groove. ”
“Ice Meez knows how to sell the emotion and feeling of his well-written lyrics and once again delivers an impactful song for our listening pleasure.
’My Moment’ is a track that delivers truth and hope, without ignoring the difficult realties of this world we all face. The song has grit and genuine emotion, and Meez’s flow is delivered with an emotive power. The chorus adds a smooth groove that breaks that up perfectly to give the track a nice balance.”
“This Christmas track has a retro vibe arrangement wise, but is pure contemporary in the lyrical build.
A fun, easy to sing along track with a do-wap type vibe. There is a hint of humor in Zachary Aldana’s delivery, as well as the lyrical vibe.
’Christmas Isn’t Canceled (Just You)’ is a holiday breakup song of not letting the past wear your down. ”
“This track was an enigma for me. I loved the smooth groove and rhythm of the track, both musically and vocally, when it is going, but some of the breaks and pauses shook me. Lyrically, I was the same. There are great lines that forced me to lean all the way in, and then a few times the writing moved out from under me and left me confused. Then the trak abruptly ended.
Overall, a solid track that kept me on my toes so to speak, though I would like to see more consistency and a tidier ending.”
“If Rock and Roll Gospel were a genre, this track just might be its benchmark song. Alfie Sharp delivers vocal talent and an undeniable energy to the performance, but the track also boast provocative lyrics that will both entertain and make you stop and think at the same time.
If ‘All Or Nothing’ is the choice, this track certainly gives its all.”
“It is always good to come across a song that has a classic RnB sound. Ride or Die is about being by your partner’s side through it all. Ride or Die is the original concept to passenger princess but with more meaning to it. The diverse dance approach takes me back to the Brittney Spears and Christina Aguilera era with a twist of Ciara. The song is cute, smooth, with a little pop. ”
“This brings back memories of when soft rock/pop style music was a thing. This song is just a great song. The tone of B00sted’s vocals. The chill constant patter of the drums. The smooth sway of the guitar jamming out. This is a feel good song. A song to start any morning off set the mood for a good day. This is a smash. Billboard style hit.”
“This is one snazzy, jazz tune. Mellifluous vocals. Trumpet inserts dancing freely in and out of the track. Both artist vocals accenting the other. This song gives 90s coffee shop scenes. Very intimate and vocally enchanting. I would love to hear more from them.”
“The way the organ/electric piano sets up the listener fro the smooth vocals of Andre really set the tone. Falsetto vocals delivered both clean and crisp. Vocals dancing on top of the chill production as the artist swags out over the beat. This is a jam. Something you could definitely play and just ride the town to.”
“Kevin Ross delivers a romantic, chilled, and sexy track featuring Eric Bellinger. The two infuses their RnB style in a track that will have you dancing and grooving.

An open book of self reflection and regret all mixed in one. This song is sure to pull at your heart strings and leave goosebumps up your spine. A lover’s confessions. ”
