Then I look up and see that the video has (Netflix’s Dash and Lily, Broadway’s Be More Chill),Troy Iwata. ‘Christmas Just for Two’ is a song for anyone who wants to have a peaceful at home Christmas celebration. It brings back the simplicity of Christmas. The drum tempo is accompanied by relaxed yet natural vocals creating a harmonic Christmas carol sound.”

Arkells - Pub Crawl [Music Video Review]

Rating: 4 out of 5

“Arkells brings the energy of a reunion night on the town with longtime friends, and does it with a wry take on the traditional religious spin that often finds its way into Holiday music. This is a well-written track with shades of Elton John to the softer vocal style. It truly does feel like a good time with friends only we are all invited smile and dance our way into others inside jokes.”

Naya Ali - Air Ali [Music Video Review]

Rating: 4.5 out of 5

“Naya Ali is taking flight with her latest track, ‘Air Ali.’ The track is about taking off for bigger and better experiences and places, but not at the sacrifice of everything that makes you who you are. Ali utilizes a bit of Trap vibe to her flow at times, and falls into a steadier delivery in others, but throughout her unique tone and talent captivates and demands attention. The beat and production are easy to stick with as well.”

CHRiS DiViNE - Don't Let Up [Music Video Review]

Rating: 4 out of 5

“Chris Divine’s new song ‘Don’t Let Up’ was inspire by Tupac’s ‘Brenda’s Got A Baby’. The song serves as motivation for women to keep their head up even when they are tired. Sometimes unplanned motherhood strengthens women when they least expect it. Shot in Black and White the aesthetics is to show emotion and that there is a such thing as having a family and love.”

Rating: 5 out of 5

“Blame My Youth is a unique name but reminds you why you are the life of the party even when you are older. ‘Dance With My Demons’ reveals a constant battle many of us experience. Lyrically the song speaks on addiction, trials, and tribulations. Regardless of age or gender everyone has a problem some of us fight it while some of us get tired of fighting urges and voices in our head so we just dance with our demons. ”

Daniel Trakell - So Long [Music Video Review]

Rating: 4 out of 5

“Daniel Trakell’s emotive vocals highlight this track, though the production and melody add another emotional layer to the track giving the single a nice rich texture to the layered sound.

’So Long’ hot like a track you already know giving it that instant kind of connection that the best songs tend to leave you with. ”

carolesdaughter - violent [Music Video Review]

Raitng: 4.5 out of 5

“Written while in a toxic relationship, ‘violent’ offers a stripped down delivery that expresses the strained emotion of trying to hold it all together despite the underlying anger, rage, and frustration. carolesdaughter adds to the mix of emotions with the imagery of the video, and though this track on its surface remains steady and rather placid in its delivery and arrangement, the festering feelings are very tangible as you listen.”

HAYL - I Will [Music Video Review]

Rating: 4 out of 5

“HAYL definlety taps into some of the same attitude and defiant confidence that has worked so well for Taylor Swift. ‘I Will’ is a declaration of independence delivered in a talented vocal build that holds the listener and keeps you leaning in to hear what comes next.

I suspect this is a track that will ring even louder for the ladies, but no matter your POV, the talent shines bold and bright. ”

Jon Richie - Thoughts From The Desert [Music Video Review]

Rating: 4.5 out of 5

“Jon Richie brings a unique perspective as an active duty member of the United States Army. In this honest track which unfurls like a letter home, Richie gives us a perspective rarely found.

Ja3 Harris x Yung Ice x Tay Grizzy - Pop My Shit [Music Video Review]

Rating: 3.5 out of 5

“Sometimes you just need to sway and move. Ja3 Harris, Yung Ice, and Tay Grizzy give you the chance to do just last with their steady flows delivered over a tranquil bounce groove and beat that sits with you start to finish.

Lyrically the hook is relied heavily on to carry the momentum though it still works well because of the production and delivery. The video offers no real surprises but is good for a few smiles.”

James Fox - Fire & Coal [Music Video Review]

Rating: 4 out of 5

“This track is a personal one for James Fox, and that passion certainly shines through in the vocal performance. Written about growing up in the Welsh Valleys, the emotions of nostalgia and days gone by are clear though the track is not so specific that it doesn’t have a broader appeal. With a dash of Coldplay and Bryan Adams to the style, this track sweeps you in in its big bold grandeur. ”

James Deacon - The Revenant [Music Video Review]

Rating: 4 out of 5

“To put it simply, James Deacon isn’t taking any shit from anyone. Fueled by the hardships, and the no’s of critiques, he boldly confronts their words in this rocking track and video.

The hard beat and attitude-filled delivery makes it clear that the naysayers have only motivated Deacon to greater heights. Some artists refuse to be denied, and it is that unstoppable force that sparks the embers that ignite their career. Keep your eyes and ears on Deacon, as he is legit ready to explode.”

Tommy Newport - Warp Speed Suzie [Music Video Review]

Rating: 4 out of 5

“Tommy Newport has captured magic by blending an old soul vibe, with a modern progression and build on his latest single, ‘Warp Speed Suzie.’

The Funk might draw comparisons to Bruno, but there was a verve and confidence about the performance that also reminded me of Timberlake, not in tone, but attitude. This is the kind of track you hear once and by the end feel like its a song you’ve been jamming to for a decade.”

Hrishi - Like A Ghost [Music Video Review]

Rating: 5 out of 5

“A twist sound between a boyband and Justine Bieber. Hrishi’s new single ‘Like A Ghost’ is about being surrounded by people but still feeling invisible. The visual is a unique illustration of moments in life using different imagery to stand for feelings and connections. The song is smooth, direct and straight to the point explaining that you can love everyone and still feel like a ghost. ”

Patrik Jean - Consequence [Music Video Review]

Rating: 5 out of 5

“Sometimes life is like like a game. We try our best to play regardless of the consequences. Patrik Jean’s new single ‘Consequence’ puts his life in a blueprint. He sings about being hurt and wanting to love but being reminded how much he hates starting over. The visual artistry shows how life can’t always be packed in boxed and sometimes great things break.”
