WoBandz - SouthBeach [Review]

November 18, 2020 by Kreadiv Kesh in Rap

Rating: 4 out of 5

“I was skeptical at first from the first few seconds. However, once the song took off I started rocking with it hard. WoBandz ‘s new single ‘SouthBeach’ is about moving how you want to move and living life to the fullest. The beat is defiantly a banger you can’t take your ears away from. i even had to run it back one more time. ”

    Kit DH - Ten [Review]

    November 14, 2020 by Travis Erwin in Music, Rap

    Rating: 4 out of 5

    “Kit DH drops a bit of funk flavor with this Rap track that fuses a fast flow, with a nice groove and beat that keeps you leaning in. Adding some bounce on the back end ‘Ten’ holds your focus as those hard hitting lines sink in and take root. Count ‘em up! ”

      Day Lee ft. PnB Rock "4RealTho" + WAY OF Vol. 2 EP [Music Video Review]

      November 12, 2020 by Kreadiv Kesh in R&B, Rap, Music Videos

      Rating: 5 out of 5

      “What do you get when New York and Pennsylvania hit the studio together?

      Infectious lyrics and a beat that prepares you for a hit ‘4RealTho’. Day Lee’s new single is full of energy from a vintage perspective. With PnB Rock vocals accompanying the sound the two are seen hitting the streets and jamming to the beat.”

        GoodLook - Rich Dance [Music Video Review]

        October 28, 2020 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, Rap

        Rating: 4 out of 5

        “Bringing the old school beats and bars vibe, GoodLook drops ‘Rich Dance’ on us. With a hearty dose of confident swagger, the track is about flashing them racks in the face of the world with no damn regard for what anyone else thinks. THe beat and rhythm keep the flow bouncing on this track, that doesn’t exactly reinvent the wheel, but for damn sure puts a little flair on your next spin.”

            “REDD knows who he is and what he’s trying to do, and on this track he declares it all for the world to hear.

            Hard beats and a cocky swagger dominate the flow and vibe of this well written track. REDD is his own hype man and this track certainly pants the flag. Eager to hear more.”

              Rating: 4 out of 5

              “Listening to this track gives you the same sensation you get while walking along the boardwalk on a warm sunny day ... when the scent of the ocean is in the air, the buskers are playing your favorite song, and the girls are all smiling your way.

              Carefree and energetic are the two words that come to mind here so kick back and listen to feel the warm sun no matter where you happen to be.”

                Thee Unemployed - Decade [Review]

                Rating: 4 out of 5

                “Thee Unemployed layers in a bit of funk-infused energy to their latest track, ‘Decade.’ This duo utilizes a fast paced flow to lay out their confident belief that this is their decade to shine and make their mark.

                The energy gathers you in on this track and the lyrical flow comes straight at you in a way that is irresistible. Get ready to move with this one.”

                  Othenic x Spencer Schmitt - Ricky Bobby [Review]

                  October 08, 2020 by Kreadiv Kesh in Rap
                  “Who is Ricky Bobby? A Nascar character from the movie Talladega Nights.

                  When you hear Nascar and nights you think fast and exciting right? Well that is exactly what Othenic and Spencer Schmitt gives in their new single Ricky Bobby. Radio friendly, Tik-Tok approved, and mixed and mastered out of his bedroom; this song has a beat that keeps you going. Every flow is dope like the 80s but the two also come on strong allowing their energy to be consistent.”

                    “This track utilizes the beat and production behind it as well as any music out there. The writing comes with a solid hook, and the vibe is made all the stronger for the way it is unfurled around the beat rather than on top if it. The flow is engaging and the lyrics wryly sharp, making this a track you can easily connect to, and fall in step with. ”

                      “Packing a lyrical punch that delivers power and truths of the world we live in, Covaboy’s track, ‘Second Wind’ is the kind of song that sticks with you long after the last note.

                      Coming with an old school 90’s Rap vibe, the beat and flow are direct and unflinching. The haunting vocal sample frames the piece well and really adds an emotional layer to the track.”

                          “Vulnerable honest is not a vibe that makes its way into the Hip-Hop world as oftena s it should, but at times you find that one track that simply lays it out in such an engaging way you can’t help but fall in. Such is the case with ‘LAst Sunday’ from Dex Channels.

                          Dex Channels, formerly known as Backstreet Peejay, is a based out of Orlando, FL. After a car wreck left his neck fractured, Channels had a change of heart which resulted in the artist’s rebirth and rebranding. The accident changed the whole pitch of his voice and this left Channels uncomfortable with his new sound for a little while making him adapt to new creative pockets. Hence, he gravitated towards a more limitless identity and sound. He’s a boundless artist who’s brand pushes the listener to be their original self.”

With a flow like legendary artists Nas and Nipsey, BurrLin is 2-Stepping through the streets of Cali; musically laying out a map of why the West Coast is the best coast.”

                                J.R.Clark - AMG Benz [feat. Breana Marin] [Music Video Review]

                                “Coming at you with a retro vibe, J.R. Clark conjures thoughts of Jay Z and that classic age of Hip-Hop with a smooth unflinching flow.

                                ’AMG Benz’ also features a soulful R&B groove from Breana Marin and overall is smooth and glassy like a laid back cruise down the boulevard. ”

                                  “There is no gamble to adding this track to you playlist. ‘PokerTable’ is a fiery track from Itz Jaleel that comes with a siren-like beat and a steady flow that drops the lines you can’t escape from.

                                  My favorite portions of the track where when the production dropped away and left the flow to land hard and heavy.”

                                    AUDREY NUNA - damn right [Music Video Review]

                                    “AUDREY NUNA brings the verve and talent to ‘damn right’ ... her fresh new satirical track about talking shit.

                                    NUNA said, ‘ I find it amusing when people spend time talking shit about people who don’t even know they exist.’

                                    Talk shit on this rising artist all you want, but it won’t stop her rise. Here the track comes with a nice Rap flow, but is definitely a mixed genre track with R&B and Pop styling all coming to the show. The video is a very literal interpretation of the lyrics. ”

                                      “It hasn’t been easy to party as of late, but Adrian Gamboa isn’t letting that stop him from dropping this up beat track on us in our time of need.

                                      ’How I need It’ is pure party in song form. The back and forth flow with Kiara Simone’ a shameless simulation of male/female flirtation as they both try to stake their role in what is sure to be a wild, fun-filled night for both.”

                                        “Swaggin’ from the get go, thehomieAve drops this hard beat and unflinching flow straight up on you. There is an old school vibe to the boast-filled writing, but this isn’t your father’s brand of school boom bap but closer to the classic Gangsta era. The beat and production deliver a contemporary vibe that matches the attitude of the performance and lyrics.”
