Trebor - Drunk [Review]

June 06, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Rap, Hip-Hop, Conscious

Rating: 4 out of 5

“This is an interesting project that is so much more than your typical three to four minute musical interlude. ‘Drunk” offers a perspective in what is really two tracks in one.

The inebriated impulsive and erratic flow early gives way to the soulful jazz infused regret of the next day. I prefer the latter musically, but without the rough night we never would experience the mindful reflection.

It is hard to compare this single to other music as it is both music and social commentary. Of course those elements are often combined, though not quite in this same way.

I am not certain this is a track that many will want to play over and over again, but it certainly is a viewpoint we all need to stop and think over now and again and this kind of songwriting makes me very eager to hear more out of Trebor.”

    Dax - Did It First [Music Video Review]

    June 05, 2019 by Kreadiv Kesh in Hip-Hop, Rap, Conscious

    Rating: 5 out of 5

    “Did I First” intro is so long prior to the song starting at 1:20 but it is worth the wait. From story telling to suspense Dax artistically combines his flow and his lyrics into a prophecy. ”

      Fatboi Gwalla Gwalla - Thursday [Music Video Review]

      Rating: 4 out of 5

      “Some people and would-be artists spit shit and you know in an instant, talk is all they got. Fatboi Gwalla Gwalla talks plenty of shit, but the man has that ooomph behind his flow that makes his lyrics bump and breathe no matter what day of the week it is, ‘Thursday’ included.”

        River Nelson - Today [Review]

        June 03, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Rap, Hip-Hop, Conscious

        Rating: 4 out of 5

        “This is one of those tracks that surprises you. Take any ten or fifteen second snippet and you might think what is this basic beat and flow? But listen for a beat or two longer and the nuances settle in, and the lyrics penetrate, and you realize ... Damn, I have so been there ... had these same feeling of needing, and wanting something good to happen ‘Today.’

        This is a single that feels like it came straight from your own inner dialogue. If only your own inner dialogue came with a snappy beat and a fresh flow with a slight reggae hint to it.”

                    “Dear Diary,

                    To be a princess is every girls dream. To be the princess of Compton is far from a dream but a reality for artist Azjah. With a strong force and team behind her Azjah drops her debut album “Princess Diaries”. The 12 track album includes two familiar tracks “Spotlight” and “Time for it” but also gives you insight of her daily life and experience so instead of reading her diary just take a listen. ”

                                  SCRUB and ACE HA - Sunny Lane [Music Video Review]

                                  “Not all is sunny on ‘Sunny Lane,’ but this single definitely sheds light on the dark side of suburbia. Riding a steady beat, the truth flows steady and direct.”

                                        “Smooth flow and honest, true lyrics that tap into emotions we’ve all felt while simultaneously wondering if the world has passed us by, and if we somehow have already seen and experienced all the best things.

                                        A groove best sampled while reflecting on life and sipping the adult beverage of your choice.”
