Atratune – “Steel Highway”/”Without You” – Singles Review My how things can change in just six short months! Don’t get me wrong, we’ve heard all kinds of different sounds from Atratune in 2018 and heard the dude evolve in several ways in the singles we’ve heard him create – but like…I mean…right there in the […]Read More
Jessy Piff – Spotify Songs – Singles Review “I get lifted, I won’t come down, blunts get twisted, blow my lungs out.” #HeardYo. The man’s ‘about to hit 30 years old’ – all I know is that if my lungs can hold up for nearly a full decade past that, his can too. It’s all […]Read More
YOVANNI – “Breathe” – Single Review Just like in music, the space that exists within words can often be quite revealing…if you’re looking or listening closely enough… Soulful singer YOVANNI’s got quite the story when you read it. Arguably, you might even come to the conclusion that, had he not been fired from a job […]Read More
Mario Marco Farinato – “Barber Shop Concert”/ “Willin’”– Singles Review I’ve always gotten the feeling that Mario Marco Farinato was born to make music.

Ace A CAped CrusAder – Lonely A – Album Review Interesting stuff for sure. Putting on Lonely A for the first time, it’s clear that Ace A CAped CrusAder has definitely been through some hard times – this entire album dives extremely deep into savagely heavy personal thoughts, observations, feelings, and emotions. Sure he’s rappin’ […]Read More
Ronald Williams – Funk Avenue – Album Review Believe it or not, this is actually the third review on the music of Ronald Williams within four months! Safe to say that things are heating up creatively over on his end of the screen & studio boards from the sound of everything that’s been coming our […]Read More
Martin Lucassen – On My Way – Album Review Martin Lucassen is like the answer to the question, ‘what if you want to do something in life, and you KNOW you can do it – but you still want to do it better somehow?’ What an awesome story behind this singer/songwriter’s music! Let me tell […]Read More
The Third Eye – The Third Eye – Album Review I’ll give you the backstory I got on this crew, so we’re all on the same page here… “The Third Eye began as a joke, The producer Namasteez and Producer/MC Plaedo were working on a song and they decided to bring in Zen Tempest and […]Read More
