Zaydo - Say So [Review]

March 05, 2023 by Kreadiv Kesh

Rating: 3.5 out of 5

“Say So” is fturistic love music that’s easy to ride to. The artist leaves just enough pockets to let the beat breathe while still delivering lyrics at just the right time. Great blend of melodic vocals, thought provoking lyrics and catchy bars. ”

    Cleo Handler - But I'm a Vegetarian [Review]

    March 05, 2023 by Kreadiv Kesh

    Rating: 4 out of 5

    “Surprisedly, I like this song. Cleo Handler “but I’m a vegetarian” is thought provoking. The song has a playful story telling vibe to it that will also have you wondering what if. Cleo sticks to the melody and engages the listener throughout the song.”

      Prisoner & Key - Set In My Ways [Music Review]

      March 04, 2023 by Travis Erwin in Music, Indie Rock, Americana, Country

      Rating: 4 out of 5

      “Prisoner & Key delivers a brooding track that is best compared to Springsteen taking a turn at an Outlaw Country song.

      ’Set in My Ways’ has grit and punch and almost slips into an Industrial vibe at times. The vocals are steady and moody with a dark undertone that defines the track overall.”

        Joshua Radin - This One's For [Music Review]

        March 04, 2023 by Travis Erwin in Lyric Video, Folk, Adult Contemporary

        Rating: 4 out of 5

        “Life on the road can be lonesome and tough, and here, Joshua Radin explores those emotions with his latest track, ‘The One’s For.’

        Delivered in a Pop Folk style, the song emotes the love and gratitude for family and friends left behind, be it for a day a week or the duration of a long tour. A song of sentimental appreciation that is easy to connect to and will inspire thoughts about the people who are important to you.”

          DONNY D - Maria [Music Review]

          March 03, 2023 by Travis Erwin in Music, Hip-Hop, Commercial

          Rating: 4 out of 5

          “Donny D drops this ode to ‘Maria’ which is personified as a woman here but is a metaphor of course for marijuana. No matter the nature of the relationship we all need a bit of calm comfort now and again. The flow here popes and has a nice balance of energy and anguish to set it all off. The delivery is spot on for both timing and tone and this one that should be appeal to lots of people given the different ways the track can be taken.”

            Rating: 4 out of 5

            “The mood of the song is a vibe. The vocalist has an almost Giveon type of tone. The accents of the harmonizations add texture and volume to the hook which is already catchy in itself. The way the snare sits on top of the beat makes it hard to not nod your head to this one.”

                Rating: 4 out of 5

                “Can you end a relationship and still be friends? ‘Breakups Ain’t Goodbye’ addresses the emotions when the other person wants a clean break, but you hope to hold on for a while longer even if it is in a different capacity. The vocal delivery is emotive and heartfelt.

                The track has a Bedroom singer/songwriter vibe and lands somewhere between Brandi Carlile and Harry Styles on the musical scope. ”

                  Rating: 4 out of 5

                  “Tara Hack delivers plenty of ‘Bounce’ with her new single. A funky little throwback with roots in Disco, the track still manages to feel fresh and contemporary despite that old school sound and rhythm.

                  After honing her entertainment skills as a busker in New York City, this artist is primed to break out in a big way. I dare you not to move and groove to this beat and build.”

                    A track sure to get listeners moving and singing along by the first chorus, no matter how you want to categorize this genre being single.”

                      “The Scarlett Opera has a contemporary Queen feel to them in, that they do the unexpected and do it quite well and with purpose. No one quit compares to Freddy Mercury, but the vocals here soar and certainly deliver their own brand of standout talent that sweeps the listener up and into the build of the track.

                      Slightly theatrical, boldly Rock & Roll this is a band to invest in early so you can tell all your friends you hard them before the world caught on. ”

                        “If Miley Cyrus had been a member of Fleetwood Mac, the band would have created something that sounds a lot like this. Luckily, we don’t need that improbable paring to create Pop ‘Magic’ because Alle The Dreamer gives it to us all on her own.

                        This track is light and airy, but still delivers a strong dose of emotional substance to grip the listener start to finish.”

                                  Jvhn Jvhn- Still Got Feelings [Review]

                                  “The way the song opens with the girl expressing her feelings immediately makes you want to listen for the direction of the song. The artist has story tellings skills that are comparable to Tory Lanes, meets Bryson tiller. You can feel the artist pain through the lyrics of tone of the vocals. Perfectly matches the title because it sounds like he’s really just venting and giving us his truth. ”

                                    The Get Arounds - It's My Time [Review]

                                    “This reminds me of the old glam rock girl groups of the 80s. The constant riff of the lead guitar carries the song while the drums bang out the constant rise of fall of the energy of the song. The guitar solo is both skillful and well timed in the midst of the song’s climax.”

                                      “The edginess of the vocals gives a feeling a passion that draws you into the hook. If J.Cole was mixed w/ UK this is the sound I would envision. It’s refreshing and it rides.

                                      It also gives you that get in my car and just cruise the highway type of feel. ”

                                        “This song feels like the 80s LA party scene mixed with the breaking vibes of the east coast. The vocalist shows both range and simplicity throughout the entirety of the song. Luna Melero’s “Ultimatum” is definitely a party starter.”
