Wavy Trees - Hypocrite [Music Video Review]

September 10, 2021 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, Indie Rock

Rating: 4 out of 5

“Rock and Roll isn’t dead, but perhaps stuck up in the trees. Wavy Trees at that.

Not sure the origins of the bands name, but I enjoyed this video and track a great deal. There are some 90s influences to the sound and a rock and roll spirit that carried me along for the progression. ‘Hypocrite’ is well-written and engaging with enough attitude and verve to make it all work and feel alive.”

    Gabe XO - Can't Lie [ Music Video Review]

    September 09, 2021 by Kreadiv Kesh in Music Videos, Music

    Rating: 4 out of 5

    “Artist Gabe XO will surprise you with this one. “Can’t Lie” is being honest with what you want and don’t want. He is coming straight forward with the girl he wants and what he sees in her. The beat delivers a climax sound and the video displays a good time. ”

      Kajé - Tear Us Apart [Review]

      September 09, 2021 by Kreadiv Kesh in Music Videos, Music

      Rating: 4 out of 5

      “The sounds of R&B is missed. Kajé brings it back in “Tear Us Apart.” The beat is a smooth emotional tempo as the soulful vocals come over it. Singing from the heart but in an understanding manner giving the formula to healing scars and making someone feel special. ”

        Justus Bennetts - Bad Day [Music Video Review]

        September 09, 2021 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, Hip-Hop, Conscious, Pop, Rock

        Rating: 4 out of 5

        “Justus Bennetts offers up this short, but pointed track that pretty much says everything we’ve all thought when truly pissed off. Eventually we all find that shitty person who does us wrong and this is the track for that moment!

        The flow is light and fun despite the dark tone of the words being delivered and that is what makes this track a fun one. So go ahead and save this one back until the next time you need to ‘dedicate’ it to that someone special.”

          R3HAB x Sigala x JP Cooper -Runaway [Music Video Review]

          Rating: 5 out of 5

          “The way life has been going this past year “the music is getting louder and the drinks are getting stronger”. R3HAB x Sigala x JP Cooper “Runaway” visually focuses on making memories instead of running away from your feelings. We must not let life get the best of us to where we are no longer enjoying it.”

            “Choppa” is cutting sound with this hard beat and a strong dominant lyrical delivery. IAMJYOUNGIN new single “Choppa” is about being ready when your enemies come for you. Visually shot in a theatrical house location the video manages to give a stereotypical location symbolism. ”

              S.O. - Kinda Love [Music Video Review]

              September 08, 2021 by Kreadiv Kesh in Neo-Soul, Music Videos

              Review: 5 out of 5

              “This song is a whole vibe. From the visuals to the outfits and even the beat you can feel the love. S.O.’s new single “Kinda Of Love” off his latest EP Larry Ginni Crescent; shows two people spending time with one another while lyrically exemplifying what they mean to one another. ”
              — Kreadiv Kesh [LA On Lock Blogger]
              “This project has been something I’ve wanted to do for a while and the lockdown opened the door for that. I got to collaborate with two special Nigerian producers TBabz and SteveRawd, as well as my long-time collaborator GP. Not only am I a Nigerian but I am also a Christian and that comes out in this project. So ‘Larry Ginni Crescent’ can be described as deeply Christian and deeply Nigerian. From the songs about faith, to songs about love, everything connects to this one point – al that we do, all that we experience, can be used for our art. I hope it moves you”.”

                “Chloe Lilac does not pull any punches in her latest single, ‘10 Things.’ Never piss of a writer and especially a songwriter as they can and will use those emotions to fight back. The writing here is strong and the emotion behind the delivery works well in this revenge track of sorts. There is a Pop, almost Punk vibe that hooks the listener in and keep them invested in the lyrical build. ”

                              “LADIES and GENTLEMAN! Are you ready to rumble ... because Dylan Chambers comes out swinging with this track which is pretty much Bruno Mars meets Muhammed Ali.

                              Get your funk on with this energized track that takes a big lyrical swing with its swagger, though for me it was the power punch of the music that truly sounded the bell.

                              This is a track that will get you bobbing and weaving and the video adds some carefree fun and goofiness to this entertaining escape.”

                                Iris Gold - Girl Pick Up Your Drum [Music Video Review]

                                “There is cool — then there is Iris Gold who goes way beyond cool to a next level of cold stone verve and swagger.

                                ’Girl Pick Up You Drum’ is a genre bending arrangement of magical funk, rock and roll, and Hip-Hop fusion that hooks the listener in sheer talent and confidence. If Lenny Kravitz and Amy Winehouse had created a baby, that child would only hope to be half as smooth as soulful as Iris Gold. The spark and life here are undeniable. Pure star power!”

                                  “This track from Too Many T’s hits like a British Beastie Boys. That old school construction and beat felt nostalgic, without coming across as dated and the verve behind the flows flashes both confidence and talent.

                                  This is simply a track that will get you moving and bouncing along as you fall in line with the build. The video is just as fun on this party anthem that truly is ... ‘So Nice.’”

                                    George McBride - Pink Paisley [Music Video Review]

                                    “As a writer myself, I am sucker for a good storytelling song, and George McBride has given us exactly that with ‘Pink Paisley.’

                                    The story of addiction, and the myriad of struggles that comes with it, is one that sadly many can relate to. The overall vibe is of a Indie Rock track and the video does an admirable job of accentuating the writing with strong imagery.

                                    This is a track that feels true to life and the emotions come through in the writing and performance.”

                                      “Scottish band, The Roly Mo have released their new single, ‘I Miss The Dancing,’ with a timeless and classic Indie Rock sound that pulls you along as you listen.

                                      We’ve all missed getting out there and mixing it up on friends, be it on the dancefloor or not, and this energetic ode to the times we couldn’t have fun is one that will stick far longer than the condition of our isolation. At least we can hope because good music is way more fun that quarantines. ”

                                        “An elevator is a small space that when too many people are in it it can be overwhelming. Justin Bieber’s championed artist Sam Tompkins releases new single and visual (W)hole.

                                        He is seen on an elevator and as he goes through different floors it takes him through different experiences with people. The symbolism is when life is overloaded there is still a way to clear it all out. ”
