“Subtly sexy and wryly witty lyrics are behind the build of ‘In & Out,’ which has nothing to do with your burger cravings and everything to do with being blinded by lust.
Jaime Deraz delivers tantalizing vocals in this confessional appraoch to admitting to being interested in her lover only when the two of them are out of their clothes. This is a fun Electro Pop track with a mesmerizing hook and taunting progression.”
“Anjulie is a Canadian singer/songwriter and performer that possesses the power to hook her listeners and keep them invested in whatever she is singing. ‘Big Bad World’ is a slow building Electro Pop track with lyrical power tp go along with the wide ranging and talented vocals. The comfort of the performance stands in contrast to assertions that the world is at war and a scary place. The juxtaposition makes for engaging art. ”
“Get ready because this is a track that will pop out at you. Maddie Ross’s new single is pop star with a vengeance. She gives you cute but reassures you she is feisty and nothing to play with it.”
“Ross will tour in support of the Touch Hands, Touch Bodies EP beginning October 16, supporting KT Tunstall. Tunstall came across Ross’s music during a Twitter exchange, and immediately reached out via direct message to invite her on the 22-city North American tour. Tour dates can be found on Ross’s website.”
“Claire Rosinkranz has created Indie Pop gold with ‘Hotel,’ her ode to secret rebellion.
This track perfectly captures the fun and excitement of sneaking off to explore and have fun with your friends on your own. It is the escape of family and the expectations that come with them, and simply letting loose and trying new things. Of finding your way in the world and navigating through the various pitfalls to arrive on the other side when you can smile and fondly recall the good times you are lucky to have survived. ”
“In today’s world people are always trying to follow the crowd but Lance S is on a different wave. In his new single “Misfit” he explains how the only wave he is on is making money. The production isn’t over the top but a melody you can rock with throughout the entire song.”
“Baby Jake is far from a baby in “Daddy’s Coming Home”. In a visual of scenes this alternative rock song is focused on destruction and mishap. Every verse is a description of each act in the video. ”
“Do you feel like vibin to a great beat full of energy? Shun and Emarie newest single “Make A Move” will have you moving and dancing. Whether you take a road trip or enjoy a night out the easy-going electro/latin/dance-pop song is sure to give you a positive feeling. ”
“This track is short, though it is longer than the ‘One Minute’ of its title. Hauskey utilizes a catchy hook and a nice groove to quickly make his statement about the fakeness of many people upon first meeting them.
These so-called ‘new friends’ are quick to make promises they will never deliver upon, and this energetic ode calls bullshit in a most delightful way. ”
“Coming right at you with a straight up lyrical free flow, Rich Yung Zaya keeps you on your toes trying to catch the references and sharp word play. The flow on this track is delivered without unnecessary or added embellishments, just straight up old-school verve and attitude.
Fans of 50 Cent and that style will want to check out this artist and all he has to offer.”
“In a metaphoric title Jehkai talks about his life in his new single “This Ain’t The Life”. He visually walks us through the hardships he experience growing up from selling drugs to being arrested and even homeless. His voice is unique but you can hear and see the truth in every lyric . ”
“Despite the title “Reckless” is a peaceful melody with lyrics of pain and hurt. The theatrical visual shows Madison Beer traveling through dreams as she tells the story of how someone was reckless with her heart leaving her through a spiral of emotions. The overall visual reminds you of the movie Peter Pan and how Tinkerbell would feel if her heart was broken.”
Sometimes you lay in the bed and just pause on life. You think of everything that is going on around you. Ricci Paolo new single "On The Run" is about forgetting. He can't smoke enough or drink enough to escape his thoughts. Alone in a house he feels stuck and ready to run away from it all. The flow is an emotional yet stern mood over a cinematic production.
“Yung Honcho’s delivery is straight forward in his new single “Same 24”. In a collection of visuals he talks on his experience and highlights his talents. “Same 24” is not just a song but his testimony.”
“Impersonator is a person who pretends to be someone else. Katy for Kings new single “Impersonator” shows her in three different scenarios of life. She explains that she is who she is and cannot replace anyone else. Men often depict an image and try to compare but in this visual Katy is clear she cannot impersonate her”
“Free Love” by Jack Diamond is a rapper’s heart felt story. When you are surrounded by so many people they either love you or want you dead. The perception he gives is thinking with his brain instead of his heart. “Free Love” features TIG’s YFN Lucci along side Jack in a church as he looks over his life and recaps. This song doesn’t leave room for assumption or stereo types but opens doors of transparency and understanding.”
“Indie Rock Bands and California go together like weed and ... well California. Wavy Trees offers up a sound and song that incorporates all of that and then some with ‘Nobody Cares.’
The irony is I do care about this song and this band. You should too because both are pretty damn good and we needs artists to keep the Rock and Roll spirit alive.”
“This is songwriting at its best. Chris Robley has that extra bit of intuitiveness to his writing that you normally find in such artists as Jason Isbell, Bruce Springsteen and Tom Waits. That line between heartbreak and hope is always at the center of the work and gives the listener a myriad of emotion to work from. This is a track that grows on you with each and every listen, but is mesmerizing from the very first listen.”
“Some tracks and artists are all about the attitude. Charmaine is such an artist and ‘DOUBLE DUTCH’ such a song. With a repetitive hook and strong in your face verses, the track unfolds like a challenge, or at least a declaration that Charmaine ain’t up for any bullshit.
This is one of those singles that sneaks inside your brain and turns into an earworm, but the experience is entertaining and that’s what counts most. ”
“Tyra Jutai knows how to tell a story, and tell it well. Here that story comes in the form of an Electro Pop Murder Ballad and beyond the strong storytelling and sultry emotive delivery is an eerie delivery that conjured strong thoughts of Amy Winehouse for me.
The track is bold and in your face both musically and visually with the delightfully sinister imagery of the video.”
“Love this track, though the video did leave me feeling a bit woozy so truthfully I will enjoy this one more without the wonky imagery. The straightforward lyrical build and message works well with Barrios’ emotive and passionate delivery, and the musical arrangement works well to impart an energetic attitude to bring it all home.
All in all, a fun Punk pop track that I will be adding to a few playlists.”
