Fola Amoo – “Jehovah Shamama” / “Bayethe Nkosi”

Fola Amoo – “Jehovah Shamama” / “Bayethe Nkosi” – Singles Review A sixteen-minute long song is certainly a challenge to get people to listen to, but you have to admire the ambition of creating something so involved.  I mean, heck, you’ve probably heard EPs that are shorter than what you’ll find in Fola Amoo’s “Jehovah […]Read More

Firekind – “One Thing”

Firekind – “One Thing” – Single Review Alrighty…let’s see…where were we? Ahh yes!  Way back in 2015… Honestly, I’m not kidding.  Back in the summer of 2015, I was 100% convinced that I was witnessing something remarkably special through the music of Firekind when I heard it for the very first time.  I believe, if […]Read More

Zanilonia – “MacGuffins Of The Mind” – Single Review As I sat here trying to recall where the heck I’d seen the word or name MacGuffin in the past, and couldn’t do it, eventually I resorted to Google.  That’s one of the things about us writers I suppose – we tend to have a solid […]Read More

Garage T. Rashington III – Acoustic Slop

Garage T. Rashington III – Acoustic Slop – Album Review ADULT CONTEMPORARY.  Fuck. Okay, I’m kidding.  It’s not that. A DUDE AND A GUITAR.  Acoustic Slop. Alright, that’s what it is, but it’s probably fair to say it’s more than that too. I’ll tell ya this much, this guy is never gonna be normal in […]Read More

Jaydii & Supreme Khay – NAHIMASTAY

Jaydii & Supreme Khay – NAHIMASTAY – EP Review Doin’ their thang straight from the drop, “Sunset Blvd Pt. 2” is pretty much all the confirmation that anyone would need to know this collaboration between Jaydii & Supreme Khay is gonna work out A-OK.  We’re used to quality when it comes to Jaydii and his […]Read More

Grant Jesse Prosser – Temporal Autumn

Grant Jesse Prosser – Temporal Autumn – Album Review As I put on Grant Jesse Prosser’s brand-new solo album Temporal Autumn and “Empty Spaces” began, this dude took me right back to a sound I love that I’ve never forgotten.  With the gentle approach to Pop/Rock you’ll find at the beginning of this record, you […]Read More

Galliano Sommavilla – Light And Shade ‘The Colours Of The Piano’ – Album Review Always a pleasure to listen to this man play.

MC Zach Attack – “I’m On Fire” – Single Review “My name is MC Zach Attack and I’m up on the track.  And when I’m on the track, you know that I’m not wack.”  #Truth As far as I can tell, that’s a statement of fact, not fiction.  On the technical front, I might know […]Read More
