DVTCH NORRIS - Save Us (ft. Rori) [Music Video Review]

May 31, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, Conscious, Hip-Hop

Rating: 4 out of 5

“So many songs lyrics are filled with bluster and bravado, and far too often, the entire things feels like contrived bullshit.

’Save Us’ is full of confidence as well, and yet the single takes an entirely different approach to get there. From a beautiful pleading chorus sand by Rori, to the hard edged flow of Dvtch Norris, this one feels real and raw and openly breaks down the fears and insecurities without hiding behind the all-too-common false narrative of ... I’m a bad ass.

A real bad ass is willing to show us the dark places as well as the joy, the hopes and the confidence. This single does that very well.”

    Chrys Thompson - "We On" [Review]

    Rating: 5 out 5

    “I walked around the room with this blasting then I played it a little while longer. As I got ready to switch screens I found myself still hearing “We On” playing in my head. Need less to say this is how you know a song rides and Chrys has that with his debut single. ”

              “Smooth, soulful, and packing an emotional punch, ‘7’ takes you on a ride through the streets via a video, but the magic here is such that you don’t need the visual of the video to take that same trip. The lyrics and delivery are capable of taking you there all by themselves, so sit back, listen up, and enjoy the ride.”

                              “Kwaku is the true definition of a cross over artist. He delivers creativity and variation as he tells his story of being an artist. ”

                              Over the years I found myself growing as an artist but moving further away from personal topics in my lyrics. When writing love songs I felt comfortable being open & honest because I could avoid speaking on my day to day life as an independent artist struggling to get heard. But now as I just turned 25, although I feel like I'm getting closer to making it in the industry, it's still not enough to make music my full-time career. With this unfortunate truth and pressure to abandon music for a more stable future, I decided to put everything in this song because I have nothing to lose.

                                Zac Austin- "It's Alright" [Review]

                                “It’s Alright” is indescribably catchy. Artist Zac gives a melody that engages us when listening. If you don’t believe me then just press play.”

                                    “Proving fusion isn’t only for the culinary world, Dis Orda employs creative sampling along with sharp lyrics and a direct delivery to give us the ‘Luxury’ of a new single that feels like a classic from the very first listen.”

                                      “Not all is sunny on ‘Sunny Lane,’ but this single definitely sheds light on the dark side of suburbia. Riding a steady beat, the truth flows steady and direct.”
