    SmooNotAgain - Liar Liar [Music Video Review]

    June 06, 2019 by Kreadiv Kesh in Rap, Hip-Hop, Conscious, Contemporary R&B

    Rating: 4 out of 5

    “There is a thin line between loyalty and lies. SmooNotAgain tells the story of a couple that lies together and the consequences that follow.The visual is far from a Bonnie and Clyde remake but the tale of liars. ”

      Lee Brown - Not Gonna Buy Your Love [Review]

      June 06, 2019 by Kreadiv Kesh in Commercial, Singer/Songwriter

      Rating: 4 out of 5

      “Its summer time and as most of us are escaping the heat; Lee Brown delivers one of thr hottest summer bop songs this year. This track is infectious and its retro switch up around the 2:30 mark makes it even doper.”

        Scarlet Drive - Just Think That You're Cute [Review]

        June 06, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Indie Rock

        Rating: 4 out of 5

        “Delivered with the high-energy of No Doubt before Gwen Stefani went off to solo pop stardom, ‘I Just Think That You’re Cute’ is rife with literary references to match that uptempo ska sound. I imagine English majors singing along in coffee shops the world over, but this single is a fun groove for anyone that likes a lively tune.”

            Sea Girls - Damage Done [Music Video Review]

            June 06, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, Singer/Songwriter, Indie Pop

            Rating: 4.5 out of 5

            “If I am honest, the first couple of measures had me eager to dismiss this single, but then that line about freshman year hit my ears and I was hooked emotionally. The vocal performance held me tight from that moment on, and both the video and the melody tied it all together.

            ’Damage Done’ is songwriting done right, and this is a song that showcases the power music has us to pull us in and turn our hopes, fears, and memories a direction we were not expecting. ”

              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.”

                “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. ”

                        “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.”

                          After opening with a roaring twenties vibe, this single keeps it interesting by reinventing itself throughout. The changes however, feel natural and perfect from beginning to end. So rather than being left feeling like you escaped a blenderm this finely produced track leaves you simply feeling ready to dance.”

                            “Some singles strike an immediate chord that puts you on high alert before the lyrics truly sink in.

                            In the true spirit of a well-written Indie Rock song, ‘Find The Water’ is the kind of song that turns the gears and wheels within and makes you think not only long after the last note, but on each and every other listen afterward.”

                                JC Stewart - Have You Had Enough Wine? [Music Video Review]

                                “Bottle up a powerful performance, pour in well-written lyrics, and you come away with quite the tasty offering. But doing so is never easy so kudos to JC Stewart for stomping the grapes on this track.

                                Emotion pervades start to finish and you won’t need a snooty sommelier to verify what you already know ... this is a great song.”

                                  “Emotional vocals and great songwriting make for great starting pieces toward the creation of something great. Add a smooth melody to the puzzle that fits perfectly and you are left with pure art.

                                  ’Piece By Piece” has assembled all of these pieces, as well as the intangible “IT” factor that makes you reach and turn up the volume when certain songs come on. There are no pieces missing to this instant classic. ”

                                    “Soulful and genuine, this track feels like the perfect soundtrack for any of us that have ever wandered off the path. The musical accompaniment to an awakening, an awareness, a rebirth. The melody is every bit as emotional as the lyrics, and the last beats of this one will have you wallowing in the feels.”

                                      The Chainsmokers - Call You Mine (Ft. Bebe Rexha) [Video Music Review]

                                      “Do-overs ... a mulligan ... second chances.

                                      Call them what you will, but hitting the rewind button is something we all need from time to time and this single and video entertains with just that.

                                      With pure pop glory, The Chainsmokers and Bebe Rexha deliver a single that does not need a second chance, but will compel you to listen a second, third, fourth time.”

                                        “Elodie Reverie commands attention from the very first vocal note.

                                        ’Fire in the Desert’ is a perfect analogy for for Reverie’s voice ... warm and relaxing at times, crackling with sultry heat at others.

                                        This track is a pure pop anthem that stokes you to sing along by the second chorus.”
