Rxtherapper - I Know [Music Video Review]

January 14, 2021 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, Rap, Hip-Hop, Conscious

Rating: 4 out of 5

“Coming with a flow that is backdropped by a soulful groove, Rxtherapper drops ‘I Know.’ The track has an easy rhythm and flow to it, that just sort of wraps around you and pulls you along. The tone and vibe combine to sweep you up and in and the video adds enough to the package to hold your visual interest as well.

This single hits like a conversation with a good friend. ”

    Datta Boy - Pull Up [Music Video Review]

    January 11, 2021 by Kreadiv Kesh in Rap, Music Videos

    Rating: 5 out of 5

    “Datta Boy’s new visual plays homage to the movie ‘Friday’. What is the last known visual of the late ‘Tiny Zeus’. ‘Pull Up’ is an example of no talk all actions. Seen throughout the neighbors of LA this West Coast track has interaction and a hard beat because “Real N*****s Don’t Talk They Just Pull Up””

      Tayy Tarantino- Ten Toes [Music Video Review]

      January 08, 2021 by Kreadiv Kesh in Hip-Hop, Music Videos

      Rating: 4 out of 5

      “It’s the snow for me. It was nice to see a video shot in a different setting especially Alaska. Tayy Tarantino’s flow is direct as he tells a story of perspective. He delivers a surprise sound in the chorus and goes right back to his verses.”

        Doble - Risks [Music Video Review]

        January 08, 2021 by Kreadiv Kesh in Commercial, Music Videos, Lyric Video

        Rating: 4 out of 5

        “Life is short. However, life is all about risk as well. Doble new single ‘Risks’ is a mixture of Latin Hip-Hop. The song starts off with encouraging its listeners to take chances because there are so many opportunities. What starts out as english shifts to Espanol but overall the song flows so well.”

          “This song is smooth Hip-Hop. Starting with a vibrant beat Akari’s new single Front X Back is truly something to rock in the car. As he is seen hanging out throughout the city his flow is conscious meets poetic justice.”

            Balt Getty, Chino XL - Rakim [Music Video Review]

            December 30, 2020 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, Hip-Hop, Conscious, Rap

            Rating: 4 out of 5

            “Kick it back to 1990 something with this throwback to a Hip-Hop sound that you don’t get much of these days.

            Lyrically, the track offers fresh contemporary lines that hit hard at times and offer up wry humor at others. Balt Getty and Chino Xl play off each other and the track packs in a lot in two short minutes. I did find myself wishing the track lasted a bit longer.”

              Poetik - FAME. [Music Video Review]

              December 30, 2020 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, Rap, Hip-Hop, Conscious

              Rating: 4 out of 5

              “It. A simple word that often means nothing, but when it comes to entertainment, having ‘It’ means everything.

              Poetik has it.

              The IT factor that captivates sand holds you. ‘FAME’ is a track about the contradictions of remaining true to who you are in the face of rising stardom and thanks to Poetik’s calm verve, this single simply works.”

                “In my mind I was like this sounds like a song that could be on a cute Netflix movie. 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.”

                  “Platinum-certified artist and producer Dillon Francis releases a remix of ‘Be Somebody’ featuring Evie Irie and it is spot on perfect. The vibe comes through in the build and progression, and is intensified with a nicely compiled video created from footage gained from the artists mom. The track is simply a vibe that works and pulls you in as you listen.”

                        “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 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’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.”

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. ”

                                “If you like the series ‘Stranger Things’ you will be intrigued by this song. Foster House, Weerd Science & John, The Astronaut join together for an out of this world single ‘Strange Things’. The beginning comes in smooth and suspenseful. The second voice has a deep yet Hip-Hop flow. As the visual shows the group going around on a mysterious hunt. ”

                                  “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. ”

                                    “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 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 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. Coming to grips with his deployment, he unloads the emotions and and thoughts in this stripped down track that is as honest as music gets. ”
