“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.”
“Gold Standard Collective comes in on the track with a slow intro and beat that only ratchets up from there. Bars and beats keep the flow moving on this well-written, straightforward track.
Grab a ‘Deli Slice’ and take a big bite. You won’t walk away hungry from this meal.”
“I loved the writing here. There is a power and truth to these lyrics that will really make you stop and think. The arrangement of the track and production did not quite rise to the same level as the songwriting for me, but there is clear talent hear and the words need to be heard and thought about as we look to better define our thoughts and ideas in regards to women.”
“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. ”
“Live a life worth remembering. That is the gist of Steve Acho’s soaring piano ballad, “Legacy.’ Acho comes with songwriting gusto and talent that will remind some of Elton John combined with John Legend. The reputation we leave behind is perhaps our greatest legacy and this song captures that sentiment quite well. ”
“Khamari perfectly captures that moment when you spot her, the one that you will do anything to spark a conversation with ... all in the hope that from there a relationship will bloom and blossom.
’That Girl’ has a definite Frank Ocean vibe to it and the track is one that just feels like the euphoric triumvirate of love, lust, and hope.”
“Watching a friend fall and slip into a bad place is tough, but so is reaching out and helping them by speaking the truth. In those instances the friend can resent you and the help you are offering. Neon Dream offers a Pop Rock refrain of this phenomenon. ‘Don’t Go Haring Me Now’ is full of heart and hope and human kindness but also comes with emotion and talent and energy.”
“We all love a good night at the casino or the Las Vegas strip. TAG and Pitbull have delivered a new single called ‘Backpack’ and it is not about a bag. Backpack highlights the back curves that tend to clap. This collaboration is serving delightful pleasure for dinner with a round back for dessert . From erotic yet sophisticated dancing the question is asked ‘How do you fit that in a lap?’”
“We all have some sort of fear. For Biz Colletti its the fear of being alone with someone. When she saw the true colors of someone she lost herself. Now she doesn’t trust herself to be alone with that person. We all have been there before. Her vocals are soft spoken but the delivery will draw you in emotionally.”

“Fiona Harte mesmerizes with her emotive vocals on this dazzling emotional track. The Northern Irish singer songwriter has a hint of Dolly to her tone, and a whisper of Joni Mitchel in her soul, but here on this track, Harte’s talent stands alone in the spotlight with both an outstanding vocal performance and a stellar bit of songwriting which combine to captivate the way few artists are capable.”
“Smooth and sultry, this Jazz infused R&B track by Gabrielle Current is pure unadulterated emotion, which is ironic given that the lyrics are all about going ‘Undercover’ to protect your emotions from the dangers of falling in love.
The vocal delivery is sensual and soft ... but so very mesmerizing, and that steady beat backing a piano heavy melody keeps the listener under the spell of the music.”
“Alternative Rock is a demanding genre. Idst new single ‘Porn of My Soul’ is delivered with a demanding undertone. Idst talks about being afraid and hiding over a heavy rock melody. The mid point is accompanied but a instrumental solo with reveal of reality. ”
“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.”
“Strong songwriting coupled with an emotive vocal delivery. What’s not to love?
’Good Days, Bad Days’ is a Pop song with depth and talent behind it. A track you can laugh to, cry to, or simply move to and still enjoy the talent and production. This track runs the gamut in all the best ways. ”
“Clever wordplay and an energetic vocal delivery are the beacons in this ode to Lois Lane. Actually, the track is an ode to the women that empower us all to soar to greater heights.
Scott Helman utilizes a repetitive tone to deliver some words that style will land for some, and no doubt miss for others, but the spirit of this song was refreshing for me and the writing shined bright in my eyes. Here’s to ‘Lois’ delivering a punch to the charts that even the Man of Steel could appreciate.”
“PRIZM unleashes an energy-filled Electro Pop anthem with their latest single ‘Lose You.’
Conjuring hints of the Pop classics from the 80’s and 90’s, this single is able to captivate with an infectious hook and groove that is quite inescapable. Pure Pop fun with enough lyrical resonance to speak to us all.”
“A pure Pop song about overcoming loneliness with the aid of a special friend, and a nice fat blunt.
Liam O’Brien offers smooth vocals and a catchy hook on this track about the desire to keep a good thing going. This is a track that will have you singing along and swaying to the beat.”
“A big, boisterous track that at times reminded me of Kelly Clarkson, ‘Every Room’ is a triumph for Olivia Grasso.
Grasso has an energy about her vocals, and an uplifting spirit behind her songwriting, which combine to make this energetic track come alive. ”
“You get what you give ... is an expression we’ve all heard. Taking that idea a bit deeper than most usages of the expression, Abby J Hall uses the lyrics of ‘All I Wanted’ to express the idea that we all need to lower our walls in order to form the intense connections that make any relationships truly meaningful and strong.
Within the song, she sings .. I hate being vulnerable,’ but ironically, Hall does exactly that on both her stellar songwriting and the emotive performance of this track.”
