LilNotChantelle - ChaseIt! [Review]

July 05, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Rap, Hip-Hop, Conscious

Rating: 4 out of 5

“The piano intro hooked me before the first vocal, but the emotion of the delivery comes through thanks to a delivery style that is raw and honest.”

      Black Lion - Survive (Ft. Ray Robinson & Testament) [Review]

      July 05, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Rap, Hip-Hop, Conscious

      Rating: 4 out of 5

      “True, hard hitting lyrics delivered in a meaningful flow and a touching chorus. This is one of those songs that will have different meaning for different people, but the magic of such writing is that it is widely relevant, and speaks to many. ”

        Bootleg Rascal - Get Over Myself [Review]

        July 05, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Hip-Hop, Conscious

        Rating: 4.5 out of 5

        “Smooth vocals and a hard-charging, energetic beat infuse this single with some funk, but pinning down a genre for ‘Get Over Myself’ is tough.

        Bootleg Rascal has given us a track that is all at once ... Indie Rock, Hip-Hop, and Funk. The result is fantastic fun! ”

            Dysphemic (Feat. Yiani Treweeke, Kryptik, Zulu Flow, Alphamama) - Awaken [Review]

            July 04, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Rap, Hip-Hop, Conscious

            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.”

                  “It’s not easy for an instrumental to grab, much less hold, my attention, but this track does both. The beat is steady, yet transfixing, and there is just enough going on throughout to make the piece interesting, without becoming too hectic.

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

                              “Riding a steady beat and lyrics that flow well, Chris O’Bannon drops a single rich in confidence. The promise in ‘I Promise’ is more boastful than earnest , but O’Bannon pulls the cockiness off with an unflinching delivery that works, despite perhaps a touch too much reliance on autotune, which makes the emotions harder to feel for this listener. ”

                                “It is damn hard to line a genre up in the sights of this one, but one thing is for certain, Zero has delivered a high caliber explosion with ‘Aim Steady.’

                                High octane guitar, with a sick flow accentuating lyrics with an edge. This song has it all like a musical Super Hero who doesn’t even need to pack a gun in order to be a true bad ass. ”

                                  “The beat isn’t the only elements of this tracks hitting hard. Lyrics that delivers truth in an easy, emotional flow. The tempo varies but this well-written set of lyrics speaks to humanity no matter the pace.

                                  ’New America’ is a song to listen to over and over again as you digest the layers of what is being said.”

                                    “Still June is on some other shxt and it is full of energy in his new single “All Me” He lyrically flows and the beat elevates that. When listening you can imagine him going in the booth the beat dropping and he just spitting. ”
