All will others because the single offers a timeless set of vocals that is lacking in today’s charts. Talented and emotive, this build holds the listener tight and keeps them leaning in. The melody and musicianship are every bit as strong.
The hard edges make this one easy to love. ”

Sometimes as a reviewer it is best to get out of the way and let the artist tell you what the track is about.

“I have been a fan of Freedom Fry for a while now, and ‘Strange For Love’ is one of those tracks that instantly feels like you’ve heard before, not because it is redundant or cliché, but because it feels timeless and genuine in its emotion. The melody has a Funky Folk vibe with a hint of the Blues, and the vocal arrangement brings in so many influences. From a chain gang work song feel, to more of a Pop vibe deeper in.
The varying sounds mesh and transition so well that you don’t quite realize how different the song feels start to finish upon the first listen. Definitely a track going on several of my saved playlists.”

You can truly relate to the story as well as feel the emotions Ridge gives in his delivery.”
“Sydney The Singer is direct in “Easy Way Out”. She breaks down the meaning of actions speak louder than words when it comes to addressing the lies people tell. Some people will tell you what you want to hear but their actions always reveal the truth. The song is full of unbothered emotions because there is no time for games. ”
“Get ready to take a trip. A trip with artist Roet in his latest single “Think”. The song allows you to escape your thoughts and vibe to the melody of being free from whatever. I admire how simple the video is with the color changes. The beat connects you to his overall delivery. This is truly a track where you just lay down and embrace the sound. ”
“To see so many different talented people and instruments come together to make one sound is amazing. Clinton Fearon “Trod On” will have you moving your hips to the beat whether you are starting your day or relaxing. He brings classic Reggae back with this track. ”
