Jboi YBP - Out tha Mud (feat. Jazze Pha) [Music Video Review]

September 09, 2021 by Travis Erwin in Music, Trap, Rap, Hip-Hop

Rating: 4 out of 5

“The intro to the video really hooked me in, and set of the mood for the flow of this track. The beat production and groove are easy to fall in on and the lyrical flow resonates for anyone that has ever had a hard slog to try and get ‘Out Tha Mud,’ so to speak. The tone of the flow works well with the autotune and production dynamics keeping the listener leaning in and on the hook. ”

    Kajé - Tear Us Apart [Review]

    September 09, 2021 by Kreadiv Kesh in Music Videos, Music

    Rating: 4 out of 5

    “The sounds of R&B is missed. Kajé brings it back in “Tear Us Apart.” The beat is a smooth emotional tempo as the soulful vocals come over it. Singing from the heart but in an understanding manner giving the formula to healing scars and making someone feel special. ”

      Justus Bennetts - Bad Day [Music Video Review]

      September 09, 2021 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, Hip-Hop, Conscious, Pop, Rock

      Rating: 4 out of 5

      “Justus Bennetts offers up this short, but pointed track that pretty much says everything we’ve all thought when truly pissed off. Eventually we all find that shitty person who does us wrong and this is the track for that moment!

      The flow is light and fun despite the dark tone of the words being delivered and that is what makes this track a fun one. So go ahead and save this one back until the next time you need to ‘dedicate’ it to that someone special.”

        John Adams - Ripcord [Review]

        September 09, 2021 by Travis Erwin in Music, Singer/Songwriter

        Rating: 4 out of 5

        “Skydivers pull their ‘Ripcord’ to stop their freefall and open the parachute to safely land. This song is about falling in love and how their is no ripcord or safety device to make falling in love gentle and easy.

        John Adams offers a timeless vocal style that is both emotive and heartfelt. This is a track to add to your relationship playlists or to share with the one you are falling for. The track offers a big bold progression that easily carries you along.”

            “The way life has been going this past year “the music is getting louder and the drinks are getting stronger”.

              “Choppa” is cutting sound with this hard beat and a strong dominant lyrical delivery. IAMJYOUNGIN new single “Choppa” is about being ready when your enemies come for you. Visually shot in a theatrical house location the video manages to give a stereotypical location symbolism. ”

                S.O. - Kinda Love [Music Video Review]

                September 08, 2021 by Kreadiv Kesh in Neo-Soul, Music Videos

                Review: 5 out of 5

                “This song is a whole vibe. From the visuals to the outfits and even the beat you can feel the love. S.O.’s new single “Kinda Of Love” off his latest EP Larry Ginni Crescent; shows two people spending time with one another while lyrically exemplifying what they mean to one another. ”
                — Kreadiv Kesh [LA On Lock Blogger]
                “This project has been something I’ve wanted to do for a while and the lockdown opened the door for that. I got to collaborate with two special Nigerian producers TBabz and SteveRawd, as well as my long-time collaborator GP. Not only am I a Nigerian but I am also a Christian and that comes out in this project. So ‘Larry Ginni Crescent’ can be described as deeply Christian and deeply Nigerian. From the songs about faith, to songs about love, everything connects to this one point – al that we do, all that we experience, can be used for our art. I hope it moves you”.”

                  “Only Bricks’s new single “Antisocial” takes you from party mode to not wanting to be around anyone but yourself. The song is less party more pity party. It explains the thoughts of an introvert and someone who tries to be social but always find a way to hide. ”

                    “Chloe Lilac does not pull any punches in her latest single, ‘10 Things.’ Never piss of a writer and especially a songwriter as they can and will use those emotions to fight back. The writing here is strong and the emotion behind the delivery works well in this revenge track of sorts. There is a Pop, almost Punk vibe that hooks the listener in and keep them invested in the lyrical build. ”

                      “Labor Day brings both party vibes, and a subtle brand of sadness as you realize summer is coming to an end. This track from DJ Zenas captures both of those vibes.

                      ’The Spot’ comes with a groove and rhythm that feels like sipping a cold drink beside a warm pool, but the party is coming to an end and with that limited time this single feels like a Sunday afternoon as another long weeks looms ahead.

                      The dynamics here gives you all the feels.”

                              “Pop duo Calabasas teams up with the vocal talents of Marc E Bassy on this track. “voices’ is a groove and a vibe that utilizes a perfect production and build to convey the lyrical intent. The track is pure Pop but uses styles of other genres like EDM and Hip-Hop to create the sound. This is the kind of track you will listen to once and sing along with forever. ”

                                “Madisyn Gifford has that unique tone and quality that makes you feel as if she is a close persona’ friend you’ve known her for years. ‘Nice Things’ feels like a confessional of sorts, but in that fun and joking kind of way that friends banter.

                                This Pop track simply feels real and genuine and keeps you leaning in start to finish. The writing takes a unique spin on the usual break up tropes we’ve all heard so often.”

                                  “Finding a connection in a rushed and hurried world is tough no matter if that desired connection is romantic of nature or not. Signe drops this single which takes those emotions and distills them into a glimmering track that connects with its tender vulnerability. ‘Kerosene Stars’ comes with an emotive delivery and meaningful lyrics and an overall epic feel to the build. ”

                                    “Bootleg Rascal gives us a track that hits like a Bad Bunny/Jack Johnson Reggae fusion. The rhythm and musical groove hook you in and the mix of languages lyrically works well to keep the track fresh and exotic in its sound. This is simply one of those songs that seduces you and gets you singing along even in the places you don’t understand the language. ”

                                      “Tom Mackell honors his mother and all of those who touch our lives and are ‘Gone’ far too early. The emotive track serves as a good reminder without dipping into the morose or forced sentimentality. The track has an Americana vibe and for those not familiar of with the genre think of Springsteen and Petty with a dash of bluesy country to the overall sound. This is simply a well-written and meaningful song delivered with heart.”

                                        “DxBoy makes the most of this Trap beat and flow. ‘Lit Again’ is an ode to escaping lockdown and getting out there in the world alongside people and finding your vibe. The track comes with an easy beat to fall in on the groove and the lyrical flow hooks and holds the listener as well. Short but no so short that the flow doesn’t grab you and make its point. ”
