“The only time I drop down to my knees is to pray to the one who created me.” This verse among many was the hardest in Amyr and Omb Peezy’s single “See Stars”. The track speaks on how to accomplish your goals while over coming your obstacles. ”
“HBK Freak speaks about emotions in his latest single “Soul Sick”. The track gives different scenarios of how words and actions can affect a person. Over time he has become sick to the bone wanting to find someone who is solid. When you been alone you don’t know who is truly there for you but you know you want your soul to heal instead of burn slow. ”
“It’s summer and we all love a good summer anthem. The Moniker ‘s latest single “Thank You For The Summer” is about dreams, fun, and the sun of course. When winter comes and goes the excitement of the things you can do in the summer is a breath of fresh air.”
“J.R. Clark intro is smooth as he lays down the facts of life when dealing with people. “Perception” is about giving and taking. If you had less money would people look at you the same as if you were rich. You never know who is real and who is fake so you observe your surroundings and move accordingly.”
“Maria Krass’s latest single “Let Me In” is emotional but tells a story. A story of allowing someone to help you when you feel alone and like you have no one to talk to. Before you give up you have to allow someone to help you especially if they really care about your well being.”
“I had mixed reviews with this one but was soon pulled in by the smooth beat. Schmitty’s latest single “Best Friends” is about going through life ups and downs and elevating with your best friend. No matter what is going on nothing truly matters if your best friend isn’t there. You can feel the emotional connection through the lyrics that cause you to elevate as well.”
“Smokin’ and tokin’ with Jesus. Sign me up! Ann Bates offers this fun track with beautiful tender vocals and wryly sharp set of lyrics that makes you stop and think. A fun track with a lively yet subtle beat and soft set of vocals that wraps around you like a warm blanket.
No doubt more than a few will be offended, but I’d sure like to think Jesus would dance and smile along to this jaunty track.”
“High energy and electric, Why Don’t We unleashes ‘How Do You Love Somebody,’ an ode to those loves that come and go far to fast. Sometimes we know the reason, and sometimes they are simply gone like a shooting star. The vocal energy dips and swells but he tempo pulls the listeners along from start to finish with artful precision. ”
“Coming with a male Billie Eilish feel, this dark and emotive track fromRONIN unleashes a tight lyrical refrain that is laced with both anger and vulnerability. The emotion is very much palpable on this slow and deliberate build. The arrangement is a perfect match to the nuance of the performance and mood of the track. The writing is dark and stark at times, but spot on in capturing the essence.”
“A soulful track with Pop sensibilities that has hints of Amy Winehouse and a stronger connection to Elle King or ZZ Ward, ‘Happy For You’ is a tongue in cheek track about wishing the best for an ex. The musical equivalent of the South’s Bless Your Heart when someone does or says something stupid the track is biting in a wry way, and the video is a fun watch with the vintage clips setting up the emotion of the track quite well. ”
“If from the bottom to the top was a song it would be this one. Ducce “Pop Now” is a motivational track walking you through accomplishments and how people tend to change over time. The positive thing of reaching elevation is being able to pass all those fake people off to your assistant.”
“The beat and vocal tone is strong and powerful. River’s “Happy For You” is about accepting change and realizing it’s ok to let go. When you let go you have to realize it isn’t you but the beginning of YOUR happiness. The grass isn’t always greener on the other side and when people realize it they want to come back but can’t.”
“I like the true and rawness of the song. EBF 2X takes us to his comfort area in his new single X Angel. He walks us down his lyrical path of life and dealing with people. The experience of stress and finding out about his grandma’s death through a letter. The hook is strong, the track is emotional, and will have you really feeling it.”
“Bazzi asks the question, ‘Will It Ever Feel The Same,’ on this track about trying to move on from a shattered relationship and broken heart. Starting off with a raspy, yet tender and vulnerable delivery the track takes on more of an edge halfway through and much like our minds it feels like a roller coaster as he deals with the inner turmoil and second guessing.
A track with nuance and heart that you can listen to over and over again while digesting the complex thought process of moving on.”
“Get ready to take a trip. A trip with artist Roet in his latest single “Think”. The song allows you to escape your thoughts and vibe to the melody of being free from whatever. I admire how simple the video is with the color changes. The beat connects you to his overall delivery. This is truly a track where you just lay down and embrace the sound. ”
“To see so many different talented people and instruments come together to make one sound is amazing. Clinton Fearon “Trod On” will have you moving your hips to the beat whether you are starting your day or relaxing. He brings classic Reggae back with this track. ”
“Few artists can convey emotion and passion the way Paolo Nutini can. There is a timeless Rock sound, like you’d find from the Eagles or Tom Waits with a strong songwriters sensibilities driving and pushing the lyrical build.
Artistry is the word of the day as you can feel the emotion and talent combine to create a vibe that transcends time and genre. ”
“Billingsley is compromised of three brothers from North Carolina. The sound and style is Green Day meets Offspring and ‘Long Shot’ is the kind of tongue in cheek song that never goes out of style. The emotions behind the track are ones we’ve all felt and experienced and the wry humor helps make the odds that are stacked against us easier to laugh off. A fun song that you will want to listen to over and over again to get all the lyrics. Pure fun and energy!”
“There is nothing like a good it of time on the road to reflect and ponder on both how you got to where you are ,and where you are going. This track takes a look at how our paths shape who we are and where we are going. With a classic and timeless sound this track straddles a Folk/Americana and Indie Rock vibe while giving off strong vibes of what it is to be a free thinking, free travelling human in this place and time.
Simply put, ‘King of the Road,’ is a good song most if not al of us can relate strongly with. ”
“Jamie Miller unleashes a track which feels a bit like the male counterpoint to GAYLE’s smash hit ‘ABCDEFU.’
Miller boldly delivers ‘It Is What It Is,’ with more of a pure Pop sound and a touch less attitude, but he does so with confidence and energy and that makes it both powerful and engaging. A fun track to join in and belt out as the build is infectious, and easily hooks the listener. ”
