“Sometimes being a woman is overwhelming. Slater Davis understands that its a hard knock life for a ‘Girl Out Here’. The visual focuses on the imperfections of a woman. It shows her not at her best and nearly not being able to take what the world is giving her. Slater Davis’s vocals focuses on a want to find the girl that was once known, but is lost. ”
“Ellen Degeneres is always known to recognize stars and singer songwriter Anna Graceman is surely a star. In a dramatic yet opera setting her new singe ‘Night Follows’ is her testimony of a tragic moment when she was carjacked and held at gunpoint. This song is for survivors who still battle with those traumatizing moments. Even when the night still follows you must remember you survived it all.”

“Imagination! As an idea people might call imagination a flight of fancy best utilized by little kids. But as a principle, imagination is at the heart of everything from innovation to who we are as people.
’Believe In Me’ is a track that is as nuanced and deliberate as you imagine it to be. And the masked duo comprising The Image fall in the same category. The video here is spectacular and I encourage you to listen and watch and decide for yourself what your imagination is telling you to believe in. ”
“I love music that brings a different prospective or angle, and Marques Martin does exactly that here in this track.
Pursuing a life as a creative artist of any kind comes with naysayers and doubters, and ‘Dance Songs’ address that in a smart emotional way rather than the usual angry defiance so prevalent when dealing with so-called haters.
Truth is most don’t hate you for expressing yourself, they simply dismiss the chance you might be good or have a genuine shot to actually carve out your place in the business.
The smooth easy flow of this track is real and intelligent and true to the mindset. ”
“You ever feel like sometimes things are pointless? Or sometimes shxt just doesn’t go right? Well, Peter $un’s new single ‘Sometimes’ is all the moods that you sometimes feel. His visual is colorful and lifting but realistic at the same time. He is shown in simple places like the park with a illustrated $un to represent his energy.”
“They say the best things are said when you are either intoxicated or talking in your sleep. A Is For Arrows new single ‘Talking In My Sleep’ is about the expression and feelings we tend to hold in. In a dark room with words written in red they display smiley face balloons, to show how happy one can be once they express themselves.”
“Coming with a big bold statement, Fab The Duo comes with ‘Our Love Is Resistance’ which speak loud and clear its beliefs and intentions. From the duo themselves ...
’Our Love Is Resistance’ is a power ballad in honor of Pride Month and the #blacklivesmatter movement. The music video was filmed at Stonewall, the birthplace of gay rights. With beautiful gospel harmonies, cinematic horn section, and wailing guitar, this rock anthem reminds listeners that love truly conquers all!””
“This track hooked me with vibe and energy. That Latin beat and verve made the track come alive, and while on my first listen I did not always follow lyrically, the video does offer the chance to dive into the words.
Balancing a nice amount of swagger and attitude, the track comes with an extra bit of punch to go with the infectious tempo. ”
“A dark and dangerous look at drug addiction, ‘The Candyman’ uses a 90’s era beat and sound to deliver a warning about your friendly neighbor hood drug dealer.
Rock vocals that feel sticky and gritty deliver the goods on this track which feels almost apocalyptic. The imagery of the video adds an entire layer to the vibe of this track. Together the package puts a tangible spin on an untouchable dilemma.”
“Becky Hill drops ‘Heaven On My Mind,’ a high-energy track with a heavy dance vibe and carefree spirit about it. The second single off of Hill’s upcoming debut album, the track reunites Hill with Sigala, who she collaborated with last year on top 10 hit, ‘Wish You Well.’
The talent is on vibrant display all the way through this single, and the production behind the vocals adds a bit of sparkle to the whole affair. ”
“A fun ode to boredom which most have us have lived in recent months. This song does not overtly refer to the pandemic or being isolated and stuck from friends, but of course that is where the mind goes even without a direct reference. The arrangement here is fun and engaging while still managing to express the disenfranchised and untethered state we’ve all been in though these times. ”
“In a colorful cartoon visual Armaan Malik’s new single ‘Next 2 Me’ is pop to my ears. The singer songwriter tells a story of how he misses his love. He goes around in circles holding on to the memories by looking at photos and listening to her favorite songs. He hopes to bring her closer but just keep her next to him.”
“We aren’t born to hate, but just like fashion history seems to repeat its self. Through all the training to protect, police brutality still exists. David Lyn’s new song ‘Cant’ Breathe’ is poetry in musical form. In a one shot visual he tells the story of America from his perspective and his take on the issues that exist.”
“ Singer Songwriter Kendra Kay starts off ‘Steady’ in her new single. Her new visual is country meets soul as she is on a farm singing about how crazy love can be. Despite the things that can be thrown at love good or bad., things will go back to being steady. The interchangeable sky toward the end is an example of how life changes but it can be displayed that the light of love still shines. ”
“In an absolute absurd brand of fun, the video for ‘Animals’ is almost a tongue-in-cheek reprimand for anyone that takes songs too literal. That is exactly what the video does and here it makes for a good bit of humor.
As a band Lawson is wiling to have a bit of fun at their own expense while giving us a visual representation of their track about the infatuation of love. ”
“This is a very well written song, made all the more special by the home movie clips of the video. Reconnecting with our inner child and finding the things that inspired us in our purest form is a a way to shake off the burdens adulthood straps to our backs. This song is all about that, and it comes with a joyful melody and a nice light, but emotionally engaging vocal performance.”
“Inspired by his time in Venice Beach California, the Netherland’s Goldkimono delivers a sound that hints at Red Hot Chili Peppers with an island pop style, and a crunch of a Dutch stroopwafel.
Known for writing the iconic Kygo - Firestone, Goldkimono describes his sound a lot like his clothing style, ‘Take a handful of sunshine and throw it into a boardwalk thrift shop, walk out with some comfy colorful pants and a Levi’s Sherpa jacket and don’t turn back.’
‘To Tomorrow’ brings the carefree spirit of youth with little regard to what happened yesterday, because you believe in the present and tomorrow so damn much.”
“Powerful! Both in the immediacy of the video, and in the vocal flow that comes straight at you.
Lyrically, the track is strong truth delivered with passion and verve. An old school beat backs the vocal flow and I especially like that retro 70’s flair added into the musical layer. The words and lyrics and overall vibe is contemporary, but the layers add a depth to the history of the systemic racism, generations in the building. The writing and performance is an intelligent thought provoking response and counter statement.”
“Dzeko and Keith Urban combine here to give this track true life. The powerhouse DJ producer and the iconic Country guitarist and star come together to give us “Both Still Young.’ The beat and progression are energetic and uplifting whereas the vocals deliver Urban’s trademark sound in a slightly different light than most of us are use to. Lyrically this is a track about the power of love that comes with a pledge to never let those embers die. ”
“Lyrically sharp, Fionn has delivered a track of social commentary on Gen-Z. The production of the track has a bit of a throwback vibe, and yet the songs delivers a very modern vibe and mood. The vocals are alluring and evocative, as are the lyrics.
The imagery of the video is fun and yet punctuates the commentary of the song quite well.”
