“Trip Carter’s somes with a distinct raspy vocal style that emotes the light but direct attitude of this lyrical flow.

This is a hard track to to join in and sing along with by the second run through the chorus. ”
“KINGS comes with a vocal performance that hooks the listener immediately. ‘ur a good bye’ is shiny Pop gold, but that is not to say the emotion of the writing doesn’t emote through in the performance or writing. This is a big bold sound that wraps around you and makes you want to move and shout HELL YEAH! at the affirmations, because we’ve all had those good, goodbyes. ”

“For everyone who who has boldly proclaimed IDGAF!, ‘I Don’t Care,’ is the title track for the soundtrack of your life. FAANGS infuses the single with attitude and a reserved brand of disdain for the world.

“This track offers a nice Latin Pop vibe in conjunction with a Rap flow and the two mesh and blend well to bring out the flavor of the track. ‘Love Is The Answer] comes with a nice hook and energy straight away and in that it is easy to lose the world around you and fall into the track. Nice tune to add to any summer vibes playlist. ”
