“This song somehow managed to marry heart breaking lyrics with energy filled production that make for a great listen. The lead vocalist beautifully dancing on top of the production with his raspy but soulful vocals. This song is a breath of fresh air. This is what new age love songs should sound like. ”
“The song is the essence of hip hop. The artist delivers timeless lyrics reminiscent of the early rap pioneers of the 90s. Real hip hop fans should definitely give this song a listen. The piano loop adds just enough emotion to compliment the raw lyrics from the artist. ”
“This track is one of those that feels light and airy and makes you feel good from the very first listen, only after you take a deeper lyrical dive do you realize the writing is a touch darker than the initial vibe. This juxtaposition makes the song all the more interesting, and means you can listen and appreciate the intent no matter your mindset or mood. Give this one a go, and let backo warm your ears with some sweet ‘Sunshine.’ ”
“Written from the perspective of a child, watching his parents’ marriage fall apart, ‘Full-Handed’ is a slow burn. A sad track that gave me modern Johnny Cash vibes. There are Country elements here but the track has an edge that better fits Rock. Maybe that lands it squarely int he Americana category but trying to pigeon-hole such a track is a waste of time. The emotions is relatable to all and the slow build here sneakily punches you in the gut. ”
“There is comfort food but this track is an ode to comfort retreats ... like a ‘Beach House.’ In creating the song, Jadnelys has given the world a comfort track. Okay, so that isn’t an actual term but it should be,. The sound here is a bit nostalgic and wraps around you and leaves you sated like a good comfort meal. ”
“We are all in ghosts in a way. Our memories think of people no longer in our lives as how they were, rather than how they may be now in a present we are not part of..
’We Are Ghosts’ by VNXI expands on that idea and gives us a heartfelt emotional track about the way our memories play tricks on us. The track has a soft, Alternative/Indie Rock vibe that is easy to digest and connect with though lyrically the ideas longer in your mind long after the last note. ”
“We all live in our own little bubbles and Angel Abaya sings about that on this track. ‘The Bubble’ sounds a bit like Natalie Maines singing Pop and lyrically he track is about how sometimes we find comfort in our own little sanctuaries whereas other times we want to pop our protection and explore the world and meet new people that inhabit it. ”
“People change and the best ones grow and learn from their past mistakes. This track is about being that new person and reflecting on a prior relationship. My only critique is that I wanted more and the song was over far too soon.
Blending a Hip-Hop vibe and a smooth R& B type groove the talent shines and pulls in the listener quickly and easily. ”
“This song is beautifully put together. The way they jump from the double timed rock beat to the smooth Hip-Hop production is musicality at its finest. The artist delivers with his soulful yet rock styled vocals. This is a new exciting sound that I would love to hear more of. This song has a big sound and could really take this artist places. Originality at its finest ”
“This song could have a huge overseas presence. If soft rock and electro pop had a musical baby, this is exactly what I would imagine. Soft, but distinctive vocals packaged over a clean, crispy instrumentation and production. You can feel the conviction in the artist voice as he proclaims he’s “stuck in the middle of nowhere”.”
“The ultimate summer, party track. Beautifully arranged vocals. The artist play off each other perfectly with their fusion of pop and afro beat style deliveries. This track will definitely leave you on the dance floor all night. ”
“This track from Dogboy reminds me of the old saying ... No one gets out alive.
That statement is generally used to describe life, but in a more metaphorical sense, it can describe relationships, because while you can escape a bad relationship but the scars and emotions often lurk in the shadows and reappear to plague us somewhere down the line.
’Rush’ is a detailed look at that kind of lasting mark on our hearts and soul and the artistry on the track drives the point home with Rock precision. The track is a bit of a genre bender, but the energy and attitude carry the day quite well.”
“William The Conqueror captures simple brilliance with both their sound and writing. True artists tend to create works that defy just how talented they are, because they make it all seem easy somehow. That was the case here on the track ‘Somebody Else.’. The emotion and vocal nuance are understanded, yet impactful, not only from the first listen, but for many more beyond that initial experience.
Even though the band is British, this track might be categorized as Americana in some circles, or you can call it Indie Rock if you prefer, but the band offers the brand of timeless sound that really transcends genre.”
“We all know that ‘Blind Dates’ can be hell, and if you ever find yourself out on one with a true narcissist, then this track will be your personals anthem.
Even if you never find yourself in this unfortunate position, you will enjoy the talent and razor sharp wit of the writing on this song. RVKAH unfurls this track with a snarky righteousness that hits with precision and deliberate aim.
Like Britney at her best.
The lesson hear is never fuck with a songwriter. ”
“Lu Hound unleashes a nice balance of passionate ire, and a soulful groove while delivering his track ‘Tinted Eyes.’ The beat and flow blend to form a nice cohesive vibe that engages the listener and forces them to lean all the way in on this build. Hard-hitting writing with an edge is at the heart of this one, and the attitude behind the lyrics is what will bring me back time and time again. ”
“When music is passionate, genuine, and inspired from a talented artists’ view of the world, it doesn’t take a whole lot for their creation to truly come alive. That is the case with ‘That’s Enough’ from Notcho Aziz.
You have to turn a blind eye, or truly be ignorant to not see the brutal impact of racism and an all-too-often unjust judicial system in this country. This track is about saying enough is enough. The lyrics, hard-edged flow, and beat convey the outrage quite well on this track of social injustice.”
“Devon Thompson has a unique and sultry vocal tone and this talented guitarists offers up a Rock vibe that is every bit as seductive as the vocal tone. This track is about unrequited love and the emotional pettiness of the one whose affection is unreturned. ‘Napoleon’ is infused with attitude and grit and the result is this timeless track that feels modern yet could have arrived from a number of musical decades. ”
