“I’m loving the influence UK drill is having on music around the world and this record is no exception. ‘Jungle’ is smooth and inviting whilst still having attitude and tempo. Nowo is right the world is a jungle but records like this make it just that little bit easier to navigate. ”
“This is track is a smooth upbeat RnB jam.Is has a simple piano production that allows the artist to use their voice as a vocal instrument. Energy is about realizing you have to let negative habits and people go. If I had to compare 9rlfrnd to any artist it would be the female version of Travis Scott.”
“Jon Vinyl drops a vocal masterclass on ‘Thinkin Bout You’. It’s so controlled, never overdone and the lyrics are a perfect slice of melancholy. ”

“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. ”
“Parris LaVon shares a bit of vulnerability on this flow, but despite the title of the track he clearly is anything but ‘Weak.’
We all have our problems and roadblocks but persevering and coming out the other side is what defines who and what we are. The beat and rhythm here are smooth and the lyrical flow lands its emotional punches with a raw earnest vibe that feels genuine. A track to listen to over and over again to appreciate the various nuances.
Be sure and check out the entire new album, WINTER IV which just dropped this week. ”
“Now this is R&B at its core. The vocals are addicting and the way they filter in deeper vocals to accent certain parts adds texture. The production is clean and crispy. The range of the vocalist shows pure talent and I could definitely listen to more.”
“Current “Talk To You Soon” is giving us R&B vibes to really set the mood for his emotions after a long-term relationship. Despite the things he loved about the relationship he also love his worth more than what the relationship was giving him. This track is a soulful production with an electronic infused melody that shows how men feel when relationships have ended. ”
“Nick Cannon is the jack of all trades. From acting to hosting it has been a while since he has giving us music. His new single “Eyes Closed” is a love song for couples heading on the journey to happily ever after. The visual shows him playing the piano while highlighting love in many forms. ”
““X My <3 (Sexy MF) is a song that will make you want to rock out. Stephonne main goal is to reclaim Rock, which the Queer Kansas City artist is doing. The song is intriguing accompanied by the sounds of an electrifying band. You loose control in the lyrics because the energy is so strong. ”
“A smooth R&B/Rap blend for the warm summer days and those sexy poolside parties. Ice Meez and Trill Lee team on this track to deliver a soulful groove that hits as hard lyrically as it slides easily through the ears melodically.
Get out there with a drink in your hand a the sun on your face and ‘Swim,’ but don’t spill that beverage when your gliding to the groove.”
“Jon Vinyl’s second release of the year “Favours” has a smooth intro. The song is dedicated to not being obligated to give something. Regardless if time is added people offer to give Favours even when they are on the clock. Jon’s vocals are lifting and will have you wanting more. ”
“Tucker Nichol’s soft vocals elevates to a contemporary R&B track that will have you reminiscing past emotions. “Over The Edge” asks what to do when you are trying to forgive or let someone’s actions speak for theirselves. ”
“How does the saying go? Always something, right. Kissie Lee latest release is all about the emotion stress of a relationship. She sings about putting your all into a relationship but having to deal with your partner doing some much extra shxt. No matter how much you love them and don’t want to give up they tend to not value that and be doing the most but still come back claiming they love you. ”
“Some artists are able to distill events from their life into a track that spans but a handful of minutes and yet encapsulates something much bigger. This is what Matt McKnzi does on ‘Dying Breed,’ and here, the artist explains the intent behind the song far better than I could in a brief review.
So says McKnzi ... Before I got sober I was self-destructive. I hated me- whole-heartedly believing I didn’t deserve love. I carried a TON of shame. Dying Breed is centered around that shame, and around our inability to let people in. At its core, the track is about owning your truth—no matter what that looks like, no matter what the consequences are.”
“We often play different scenarios in our head just to escape reality. Jon McCollin “Scenarios” allows us to musically see how life can be. The vocal tone relaxes your mind to visually create every
lyric and relate it to your own scenario. ”
“Somewhere in the lyrics there is peace and truth. The River’s latest single “Hours” facing the reality of love, respect, and emotions. Over and acoustic melody the rain pours over the lyrical expressions of facing your feelings.”
“Bianca Jade delivers her vocals in silky smooth confidence and while not many people ever get everything they want, Jade’s talent and delivery makes it easy to believe she will indeed get there because she truly is giving it “Everything I Got.’
The groove and build here are as mesmerizing as her vocal talent and this track is one that will make you feel empowered as well. ”
“A soft acoustical track of heartfelt vulnerability, ‘Doctor, My Eyes’ is not the track you might expect, but it is the track you need.
Khamari showcases his artistic talents in both the delivery and the writing of this emotionally laden single. This is a song you feel as much as hear, and it definitely conveys a mood of melancholy and hopeful observance than we have all felt from time to time.”
“I was hooked the first sec. Aside from the vocals the song has a meaning. What is L.O.V.E?
KB Mike explains how love conquers all. Some people hold on to hurt and can not fully understand love. He breaks down its the small yet big things that proves someone loves you. You can not feel your best but real love shows up and shows out. Is L.O.V.E real? Is L.O.V.E complicate? What is L.O.V.E? ”
