“The emotional vocal delivery grabs hold from the first word and as the lyrical build unfolds the performance only draws you in deeper. The Satellite Station brings a timeless songwriter vibe and combines that with a folksy Indie Rock sound that is almost tangible in its powerful emotional resonance. ”
“I instantly fell for the groove on $cholah’s single ‘Attention.’ I did feel like the emotions was rushed by the tempo at times, but the smooth vocal tones and good vibes overcame my sensation that the song was rushing by and allowed me to settle in and find my groove. With each listen I grew to appreciate and connect with the track more and I can safely say this is a a track I won’t get tired of hearing over and over again. ”
“Melody and vocal tone are powerful when perfectly matched and that was the case on GRAACE’s latest single, ‘Sentimental.’ From the first guitar note to the final emotive line delivered, the track feels spot on. A songwriters sentiments with a commercial vibe that lifts the track above the emotional fray and into a realm not many songs ever reach. ”
“This world is full of stereotypes. However, Elle Baez is living her truth and showing her beauty. Surrounded about so many other beautiful women like her they are living free of stereotypes. Life is about having fun and not being anyone’s snow white with tight jeans. ”
“We all want to break free from life choices. In Nate Fenn’s new single “Cashier” it is about wanting to be more than your hometown. Everyone want’s a different outlet or a plan to get them out of where they are. The song has a relaxed tempo but allows you to vibe with it.”

“Sometimes we try to escape from the memories but the memories are still in our head. Liam O’Brien’s new song “US” is about not wanting to think about someone but there are triggers. Triggers that have you thinking of them. Using a fan to represent the song is pure classic. Most fans spend time in their room singing anyway.”
“Sixteen year old rapper, Nazzy the Mic comes with a smooth honesty that brings her flow to life. This Philly native is about the catch fire and ‘Tired’ could be the very track that lights the flame for this young rapper. The writing is strong and her delivery sells the words very well. There is no substitute for real genuine emotion pushing a flow, and this track boasts that very thing. ”
“Chaii is clearly feeling it on her new track, ‘Get It Done,’ and that confidence is infectious as it hold the listener to this groove. The flow here permeates with attitude and verve and the cadence works well with the sultry purr of her tone.
The world is full of bad ass women and this one comes to you straight out of New Zealand.”
“Cassie Rytz is coming with a bit of British attitude and a true Grime vibe that hooks and holds. The flow is delivered with speed and precision and the writing is sharp enough that you will need to give this one a few listens to catch all the bombs being dropped right into your lap.
The accent could make it tougher for some to dial in, but trust me the effort is worthwhile and the voice is unique enough you won’t be sorry.”
“JC Stewart hits on a simple yet complex theme. “Don’t Say You Love Me’ ... just to keep me from leaving is a brilliant line, and comes with a set of emotions that most of us have felt at one time or another. The performance from this Norther Ireland native emotes the passion behind the writing and comes with a blend of anger, resentment, and dismay. All of which is the exact mix such a false declaration instills when tossed out in desperation.”
“I heard a few different mixes of this same track and this one really spoke to me. The keys helped bring this cut to life for me and tied the smooth groove of the flow together for me in a way the others did not. The strength of the timing and delivery worked well with this arrangement. Definitely a track that establishes a mood and vibe easy to ride with.”
“Strong writing, backed by an emotive and heartfelt delivery, will always find a place in the musical landscape and that is what Belaver gives us with the single, ‘Mount Misery.’
The track unfolds in low key fashion that is easy to digest and fell but the delivery is spot on in tone. The writing delivers punch through the entire progression making this is the kind of track that sticks with you long after the last note has faded.”
“Leah Kate is anything but a ‘Shit Show,’ but that does not stop her from regaling about the chaos of a wild and fun night. Or poking a little fun at herself and state of affairs she often finds herself in.
The track is pure Pop gold and the energy and vocal talent makes it easy to fall in and connect with the fun. All of our lives digress into that shit show scenario from time to time so it is easy to buy in and sing along with this one.”
“I was leaning in on this one from the start as Jenny March delivers an emotive energy that speaks to her own passions. The build is varied and hooks you in bringing an EDM almost Disco vibe at times. Other sections of the track come with more of a Pink vibe giving it a Pop quality.
’SCREAM’ is a track we can all relate to not only because of the last year and a half, but simply as a result of life’s demands.”
“LA based Elodie Rêverie is not a stranger to this blog and now she’s back with a remix of her single ‘Red Carpet.’ Rêverie’s trademark vocal sound is as always intoxicating in a sensual and alluring kind of way. The overall arrangement feels enchanted and exotic in a modern way while paying homage to bands like Roxette and Ace of Base that also brought an alluring sexiness to everything they did. ”
“This track has a light, almost bubblegum feel and I wanted to dismiss it early on for that reason, but the vocal talent shines and that held my attention until I realized that the writing is actually wryly sharp and pointed.
That combination makes this song infectious in all the best ways, and I stayed leaning in to hear what she would say next all the way through. I can see why all of Gwyn Love’s exes would keep hitting her up, because she has that extra it factor that is hard to let go of.”
“Rhys was born in Portland but moved to Sweden when she was only ten years old. The influence of both American and Swedish Pop can be found in her sound and the tender emotion is palpable in every single line. This particular track reminded me of Pink a great deal but that is not to say Rhys doesn’t have her own unique spin and delivery. The writing is also strong and in it you can truly lose yourself into the world of the singer. ”
“Truth is a powerful force in all art, and when you can distill it down into a consumable good you have hit your mark. C’Nyle is able to do just that here on this low key flow that allows the writing to land with every single line.
The beat is mellow and that allows the emotion and message to stick without getting covered up or lost. California vibes with a little mix of Louisiana love.”
“Yung Gravy always brings the verve and energy and ‘Steppin On The Beats’ is no exception. Gravy hits me like a cross of Macklemore, and Timberlake because he has that goofy side yet still manages to come off as cool and engaging in an original way. The beat here grabs and holds you and you can’t help but smile and move along.
This track is simply pure fun.”
