“A drill music banger over snappy trap production. Although the track isn’t long it could still serve as one of those album cuts that you grow to love and leaves you wanting more. The artist doesn’t jump out of the speakers with over the top energy but his chill, laid back flow makes this song something you could just ride and vibe out to.”
“The musical composition is a popular sample which automatically gives the song a nostalgic, relatable edge. The hook is simple and easy to remember so it would work well over live performance crowds. A song simply about popping it and being able to leave with the woman of his choice. A confident but fun fueled song. Definitely something you play when you want to get into yourself and into your mood to step out. ”
“ A heartfelt jam about the lifestyle and troubles of growing up in the hood. Although 804iser speaks on the ways of the streets, he doesn’t glorify it. This is the art of story telling at its finest. His flow and consciousness behind his raps puts him in the category of such West Coast lyricist like Nipsey Hussle & Mozzy. Definite West Coast banger.”
“A breath of fresh air to music. Tamara Yasin delivers a fun, cheerful, summer anthem. This song feels good from start to finish. Simple production with instrumental appearances from lost instruments such as ucolalies, maracas, and soft background vocals. If you could place a walk on the beach on a musical composition this is exactly what you would get. Joy as a song.”
“This song puts me in the mind of the great soft rock songs that blessed us as listeners in the 90s & early 2000s. A smooth, sexy groove about a woman who seems to be out of reach of the artist, yet he can’t get enough of her and how she takes his breath away. Wiry, aggressive guitar and head banging percussions. This song has everything any rock fan wants in a jam. Ending out with the guitar doing a masterful solo that only adds the icing to an already great song.”
“Written for her best friend, ‘For Shaughnessy’ is a tribute to friendship, empathy, and the power of emotional connection. Madisyn Gifford never meant this track to be released but when she shared it with her friend they decided together that this was a song that needed to be shared and heard by others.
The power of friendship is clear and so is the humanity of the writing as well as Gifford’s incredible vocal talent.”
“Light airy vocals deliver The Sweeplings ode to love, ‘Just Like That.’ The duo delivers tangible emotion both vocally and with a carefully created arrangement that pairs perfectly. The track has a slight theatrical edge that adds an almost brooding haunting quality and instills the intensity and fragility of love to the mix. ”
“The track has a peaceful melody to it.I can hear the violin which sets a relaxed tone that allows you to connect more with the song and its emotions.I also can slightly hear a harmonica which makes the song stand out even more. ”
“There’s soul and there’s suspense. Stand by your side is a retro soul track that will take you back to the classic 70s. Sepalot gives us many sounds that will have us vibin, singing, and going through emotions. ”
“A sultry, spicy Latin jam.This song is sure to keep any listener dancing.Diana steps into her Colombian/Costa Rican-American , California raised roots with this one. With Reggaeton styled percussions and light horns this is a a happy, energetic, yet romantic track. ”
“Every good band starts in the basement of one of the band members home. Vacant Space sets off those vibes. The drums hit just right and align with the lead singer. The lead singer is consistent and despite the high vocal tone you can interpret every verse. I dig the solo around the 2:20 mark as well. ”
“It’s not everyday you hear a xylophone used as the main instrument in a trap song. That alone shows the genius of both the artist and producer. Feel good music that could make any car ride a real vibe. There are some similarities to artists like Playboy Carti but the artist still delivers with a style of his own. Great overall listen.”
“A brilliant mix of classic piano composition fused with aggressive Hip-Hop bars. This artist knows exactly what he wants to say and holds no punches. Though he keeps the flow consistent throughout the arrangement his thought provoking bars keeps the listener engaged. This is what I would call international motivation music.”
“This is what classic Hip-Hop sounds like. The track takes me back to the 90s when Cypress Hill was coming on the scene.The beat has snappy snares and just enough kick to keep your head bobbing as you walk through the street of your neighborhood. ”
“Poetic truth is how I would describe this submission. It gives the alternative of role reversal. People do so much to us but we never apply the same energy. They often wouldn’t even hold us down if we did what they did. This track is a revolution of what if you did it.”
“We all battle demons some more than others. Tay G “Ride” is about finding someone who stands next to you even when you aren’t feeling your best. The song has a slight melody to it, it is this melody that pulls you in emotionally. Also, embedded in the track are background vocals that make you sympathize even more.”
“Ephect is an artist who music has a different effect and sound. The song incorporates a turn table with a little hip-hop and hardcore rap. This lyric video allows you to comprehend, connect, and cruise to the song as you ride out.”
“You ever jump in the car and get lost in the drive itself and before you know it you zoned all the way out and drove to Utah from Brooklyn? Well that’s what this feels like. R.D.P is hypnotic, raw and just good in the type of way you can’t quite explain. ”
“Edwin Arzu returns after his summer slow burner ‘Vices’ with ‘Stay’, a brooding raw plea to a lover asking the honest question “if the sky falls... would you stay?”. Stay is honest, poetic yet unmistakably grounded, with vocals that feel like an intimate conversation.
Arzu is set to deliver is much anticipated debut project in the fall of this year. Until then, we have stay to soundtrack every late night think session. ”
