Drug -Manifest [Review]

June 06, 2023 by Kreadiv Kesh

Rating: 5 out of 5

“This song will remind you of a pop boy band, It speaks about wanting something in life and manifesting having it. “Drug” is a group that delivers a healing frequency in their songs. I defiantly dig the guitar solo and the choir like sound after the 3 mark”

    Brendan Baker -Mixed Signals [Review]

    June 06, 2023 by Kreadiv Kesh

    Rating: 4 out of 5

    “This song somehow manages to clash toney vocals over keys that at times don’t even seem to match the harmonies of the lead vocalist into a real bop. The cringy electric piano keys and the chanty vocals on the hook give this song a natural bounce that keeps your head nodding. The artist ability to go from vocals to rapping shows great skill from an artist perspective. Great listen.”

      Trag Blakk- Moment [Review]

      Rating: 4 out of 5

      “A cinematic introduction that leads right into substance filled, story telling lyrics. This artist shows a great range of lyricism delivering inspiring but real life, heart felt lyrics. You can hear the conviction in the artist delivery. The angelic adlib tracks from the female vocal add even more soul to this already soulful track. ”

        Rating: 4 out of 5

        “This song hits you with a burst of life as soon as the snare and kick come in. Didn’t expect the soft, whispery tone from the lead vocalist but it somehow fits the beat perfectly. The way electric guitar somewhat adlibs with vocals on the verse add a clever level of musicianship to this song. Fun, high energy music. Sure to have to you dancing on your bed from start to finish.”

          “The track goes hard. The artist voice cuts through the track clear and crisp. This artist is really talking that bragadoshis talk. Detroit style beat production and straight the point, raw bars.”

            “They say the West Side is the best side, Of course that’ where you can catch us keeping it on lock. Dream Ear mixes old school west coast beats with new school west coast beats infused with legendary Too $hort. The track does hit hard and delivers inventive wordplay as describe. It is truly a coming of age song that will have you vibing. ”

              “The artist vocals go through your ears and speak right to your soul. The guitar and kick add just enough production to the this track to give the artist room to really showcase her vocal prowess. Beautifully arranged and composed. The accent of the harmonies that begin to show up in the second verse build and add texture and a new energy to the song. Mellow vibe. Emotionally evoking track that makes your heart cry all throughout. Could also see this song as a soundtrack cut in any modern day love or romance flick. ”

                “This track is a burst of energy from the jump. I love the mesh of the soft vocal timbre of the artist over the raw and aggressive drum pattens of the composition. The hook is catchy, beautifully composed and easy to sing along to. The energy in this track is captivating. Great uptempo love song and overall composition. I like the rawness of unpolished sound of the instrumental solo on the bridge which clears out into a clean break down where the artist just croons away at your heart. Well put together. Would love to hear more from this artist. ”

                    “I like the way the song builds up to the introduction of the vocalist. Enchanting, crisp vocals. Simple production that is sure to leave you rocking from state to finish. Love how the artist breaks down in the mini bridge just to build back up for the 2nd verse and hook. The difference cadences and in and outs of the instruments leaves the listener wondering what’s coming next on the track. A overall great listen”

                      Noak Hellsing - When The Shadows Go Home [Music Review]

                      “An energetic beat and build contrasts the darker nature of these lyrics. Noak Hellsing unfurls ‘When The Shadows Go Home,’ a track about trying to connect in a world that is increasingly divided and fake. Being content alone with your thoughts is uncomfortable for many and the contrasting layers help to express that set of emotions quite well on this track.”

                        “Andrea Clute drops this emotionally vulnerable and honest track about getting ‘Nervous’ in the presence of a crush or new romantic interest. The soft Pop style vocals work well and feel genuine. This is a straightforward track that most of us can relate to at some point in our lives. I like the way the track builds and you can almost hear an escalating heartbeat in the rhythm of the music. ”

This Argentinian now calls Fort Worth, Texas home and as a Texan myself I appreciate the diverse musical talent that calls North Texas home. You will too once you add this vibe to your own playlists.”

                                    Yung Gravy - Goodness Gracious (with bbno$) [Music Video Review]

                                    “Yung Gravy is always a vibe. Some might want to dismiss his talents given the humor that is always prevalent in his work, but to do so would be wrong because Gravy’s verve goes far beyond making you smile. The cool calm confidence and razor sharp lyrics showcase the depth of his talent and here BBNO$ (Baby No Money) joins in giving off the same brand of fun talent. The video is a mood in itself and every element here plays to the other in a fun way.

                                    But don’t sleep on the catchy lines which really are smart and intelligent in their jocularity, yet still impactful beyond that..”

                                      Man vs Monkey - When I´m 22 (featuring Bymia) (Remix by of blonde ) [Music Review]

                                      “Man vs Monkey teams with the vocal talents of Dutch singer, Bymia to unleash this emotive build and infectious beat. ‘When I’m 22’ is a lyrical jewel that will make you think and reflect regardless of your current trips around the sun count. The music will make you move and the words will make you ponder what it all means in the best of ways. I can’t wait to take a dive in on the rest of this album and see where the entire selection of songs takes me.”

                                        Truent - BIG BAND$ [Music Review]

                                        “This is one of those tracks that just sneaks in and takes over forcing the rest of the world to step back for a couple minutes while you bounce with the beat and chant along with the flow. The timing of Truent’s delivery and the hard beat work together to simply make you feel every line and word. ”
