Kayla Diamond - I Should Have Listened to my Friends [Review] November 14, 2020 by Travis Erwin in Music, Electro Pop Rating: 4 out of 5 “Kayla Diamond drops this Electro Pop ode to a love gone bad that surprised no one — except perhaps the one broken heart. ’I Should Have Listened to My Friends’ is the kind of retrospective knowledge we have all experienced a few times in life. The smooth easy talent of Diamond’s vocals make the words feel true as the production swells and ebbs as needed to bring the emotion home.” — Travis Erwin (LA on Lock Blogger)
Sophia Messa - Ice Cream & Cigarettes [Music Video Review] August 11, 2020 by Kreadiv Kesh in Music Videos Rating: 4 out of 5 “Sophia Messa has a craving and its in human form. Her new single ‘Ice Cream & Cigarettes’ describes how she feels when she is around that person. However, for the things you crave are also the things you don’t need. She goes on to explain that she doesnt want those feelings anymore. Her vocals are raw, emotional, yet solid.” — Kreadiv Kesh (LA On Lock Blogger)
Maja Kristina - "The Idea Of Me" [Review] June 30, 2020 by Travis Erwin in Music, Electro Pop Rating: 4 out of 5 “The complicated dance that is love comes with all manner of missteps before you find the right partner. Maja Kristina takes on the person that only thinks they want to dance with you. The sort that goes in with the minimal amount of emotions and engagement, without truly feeling being swept up and present in the endeavor. The Electro Pop groove comes with engaging vocals and an uptempo beat that propels ‘The Idea Of Me’ forward to the end.” — Travis Erwin (LA on Lock Blogger)
Joel Robertson - About the Truth [Review] June 17, 2020 by Kreadiv Kesh in Singer/Songwriter Rating: 4 out of 5 “The battle of the mind is a tough battle. When you look in the mirror you ask yourself what is wrong or what is going on in your mind. Artist Joel Robertson’s new single ‘About the Truth’ is about conversations with yourself. He delivers the song over a dance melody but this song is far from a dance song. It is a song of discovery.” — Kreadiv Kesh (LA On Lock Blogger) A dark and brooding song that tells of my struggle with depression and anxiety. Often times the truth is harder to accept over a lie.
Blake English - This Is The End [Review] June 05, 2020 by Kreadiv Kesh Rating: 4 out of 5 “Starting with a heavy guitar string Blake English leads us into his new single ‘This is the End’.

SISTER COOKIE - ON GOLGOTHA [Review] April 16, 2020 by Travis Erwin in Music, Jazz, Soul, blues Rating: 4 out of 5 “The 12 Bar Blues with a Jazz infused bit of funky Gospel is how I’d describe this darkly twisted track from SISTER COOKIE. Energetic and danceable, this one has a retro Rockabilly vibe that makes it perfect for a swing around the dance floor, but don’t underestimate the twisty lyrics of this soulful single. ” — Travis Erwin (LA on Lock Blogger)
Bad Flamingo - Bad Apple [Review] April 03, 2020 by Travis Erwin in Music, Singer/Songwriter Rating: 4 out of 5 “There is something dark and sinister growing here in this sound, but trust me when I say ‘Bad Apple’ is far from rotten. Coming with a melody that at times feels like it is straight from an old Spaghetti western, and at others feels like like a modern, emotional Pop ballad, Bad Flamingo pairs this unique musical vibe with vocals that feel both haunting, and alluring.” — Travis Erwin (LA on Lock Blogger)
