“This is one of those tracks that just grabs you and it is hard to say why. There are some shiny lines that truly are ‘Going For The Gold,’ and the vocal flow is somewhat ordinary until the chorus anyway, but I was on the hook just the same.
I suppose my intrigue here came from the fact that it felt true and I believed the emotion behind the flow.”
“The monotone vibe to this track worked well with the lyrics. And the vocal shift a couple minutes in brought in a soulful groove that kept me on the hook.
Well-written and engaging, ‘Lately iii’ pulled me in and held me there. ”
“The unflinching, old school flow to this track works because Jay Gudda makes it work. I not only believe the conviction in every word, but also appreciate the fact he pulled zero punches on regard to himself, or in striking others.
The simple video works well with what is laid down.”
“Riding a crest of smooth confidence, The Wavy Kid drops ‘Get Away’ which feels cool and comforting.
This track isn’t exactly breaking new ground, but it covers all the basis for an upbeat and entertaining listen. ”
Rating: 3.5 out of 5
“We started off with a mini intro audio movie, which led us to the praises of ‘Amen’. Through the changes of dark and light ‘Vitiligo’; Macharo’ s project ‘DDM’ delivers a different sound with guest features from Stophe Malone and Young Homage ON ‘Usian Bolt’. For most who need no explanation for ‘Hoodie Season’ when you live a ‘Life Like’ this with money over everything except your kids. When the kids go play it leaves time to ‘Celebrate’ success and no more struggles.”
“A song that will make you both smile and think. The flow varies and is engaging through the multiple delivery styles.
Pure entertainment start to finish. ”
“The beat hits first and sets up the ridiculous flow that follows. Lyrically this one stomps across the yard like a thousand pound’Elephant.’ Attitude and righteous confidence are the trumpets that mark this sound. ”
“This tracks lands right on the feels for anyone with a Momma ... which means it should speak to every last person.
Delivering truth, while putting humanity into the senseless, the vocal flow is pure and real. The backing, sang by Yalee’s own mother, is emotional and heartrending.”
“Maintaining a grind is not easy when you get inside your head and allow the negative thoughts to seep in, but overcoming the feelings that hit us all is important. This track is the soundtrack for such perseverance. Delivered with multiple voices in a variety of flows the track is as entertaining as it is uplifting.”
“Dropping a smooth and classic sound, Nakfa bends genres with this Hip-Hop old school 90s R&B vibe.
’Sera’ is a track that took me a bit to connect to lyrically, but from the start I felt the groove behind this single.”
“Lyrical truth is a powerful thing and this track rings true not only in content, but also in the delivery.
Rudeboy Tha Shottah makes me feel his emotions with an honest straightforward delivery that is the musical equivalent of unflinchingly staring someone in the eye while they speak from the heart. ”
“That thin line between love and hate is often big and bold after a breakup. This flow takes gloating to a new level post breakup. An anthem for those flourishing when their exes flounder. The horns in the melody add to the flavor of winning and the vocals capture the emotion of prideful disdain.”
“Spot on writing delivered with a direct and honest flow.
The song builds via emotional attachment. Like listening to a good friend speak their mind about hopes, dreams and even frustrations.”

This is an in your face protest song with something to say! Not for the faint of heart, but a track that does not flinch.”
“Melodic beats and a catchy hook accompany this flow giving Fortune Music and Genesis Renji a sweet little single called ‘Sugar Coat.’
This is an easy groove to settle into. ”
“A clever metaphor that works great with this delivery — which is almost irreverent and taunting.
Chocolate and Lemonade are fine individually, but nasty when mixed together and the same can be said about the relationship in question in this track. A fun song that still brings some universal truths.”
“EMS brings some international flavor with this video and hard-hitting set of lyrics.
’Rapscallions’ takes that Beastie vibe, and builds a thumping sound full of nods to the past, without sounding like a copy of anything.
Fresh and real and solidly worth your time! ”

“Truth. Passion. Confidence.
These qualities define both people and music and when you possess all three, you are bound to agitate those who either fear or envy you. This track by J4 Da Dawg is such a song. There will be haters, because there always are, but anyone that says J4 ain’t bringing it today with, ‘Until Tomorrow’ is flat-out fooling themselves. ”
“Unfolding like stream of consciousness poetry, the flow still brings a musical quality. The overall vibe is very mellow, while still being engaging and emotional.”
