San Diablo AllStars gave us "A Field Guide To Modern Trauma"

  San Diablo AllStars releases "A Field Guide To Modern Trauma" & it's refreshing & creative.   The project starts off with "Klepto" & it's a dope beat with some great vocals.  I love hear some raps that I can understand & vibe to as well.  The title of the next song "Devil's work" caught my attention & I knew they had to be talking about something of some substance; I was correct.  The AllStars delivered on this as well, everything meshes well together.  Sidenote The mixing and mastering of these songs sound amazing as well & that's always great to hear.  Diastro shows up on the track "Everybody" & it gives me a rock feel infused with hip-hop.  The bars are superb on this track as well.  The track "Say what" gives me that old school hip-hop feel but at the same time it's groovy.  It's the perfect track for a real MC!!! I can honestly say this is my favorite track on the project, it's so hip-hop & pure rap.  The skills are highlighted to the highest level on this track.  "Get Some" is another one of my favorites...and the first verse on this song is WHEWWWW!!!! PERFECT!!! The verses on this song go nice with this beat & I believe I hear a famous sample in the beat but i'm not sure.  Regardless, it's another great track.  The project also features John Risdon on the track "Boomstick", Natalie Dime shows up on "People Are Strange", & Blush is featured on the final track "Nothing song".  Overall this album is dope & it full of great talent, production, vocals, & different emotions & feels.  No song sounds like another song, everything is in it's own lane & the AllStars did a great job completing this project.  

This DRIFTWOOD EP is ravishing & amazing.

 Oleka releases the brand new EP "Driftwood".  From the opening song "Two Years", you can feel the energy & uptempo vibe that is sure to catch your attention.  This EP is compromised of four songs that mesh well together & makes a great cohesive project.  The follow up song is "The Manufactured Truth" & the title alone had my attention before the song even came on.  This one is another uptempo track, ravishing guitar play & it has a smoothness to it that I love.  "Pulse" is something serious...I love the intro of the song.  It's one of those songs that start off one way & once the beat drops the energy level is heightened.  This Driftwood EP is put together very well.  The EP ends with the track "Dead Echoes" & it's another one that will get you going once you press play.  I wish it was a few more songs on the project but at the same time this solid 4 is perfect.   The Driftwood EP is certainly something a project that I recommend all my metal finds to check out.  Even if you're not a big metal fan, the music is still great & can be appreciated by anybody.

Jawja Boi Roy & Yank brings the "Vibes" on new song

 Jawja Boi Roy (JB Tho) & Yank bring the vibes on the new summer anthem.  The melodic vibe of this song is amazing.  This tune is one of the ones that people will have on repeat for awhile.  I can also say that this song feels good.  When a song feels good, sounds good, and the lyrics are fantastic like this...whewww...The song is available on all digital media outlets for streaming and downloading.  The official music video will be dropping in the upcoming weeks.  This song could easily line up to be at least one of the biggest songs of the summer.  JB Tho & Yank really did what needed to be done on this song. 

Opulence Osteen....Yessssss!!! Emily Misura!!!

 This "Opulence Osteen" is ingenious, innovative, & prolific.  It's one of those songs that's full of creativity of openness.  I love to hear a song that sounds refreshing & brilliant.  It's one of those songs that you really have to play over & over.  The uptempo flow of the song is catchy and has a bop to it.  I'm also a fan of an instrumental with some unique sounds while hearing some great rapping.  "Salvation ain't free"....The only problem I have with the song is that I wish it was longer.  With the different flows & eclectic beat, I could have listened to a few more minutes of this.  "I can't stop smiling, i'm so fucking blessed. I can't stop smiling, i'm money obsessed.  Give me all your wealth, even if you're poor. Give me all your wealth, or i'll open hell's door".....I can't lie the last few bars of the song is so deep & makes me think about a lot.  A song that's uptempo like this, can make me bob my head & think at the same time is usually a great song for me.  If you really listen to the song, you can see where Emily is going with it.  Even if you have to rewind and pay attention closely.  Emily Misura delivered on this song.  

Happy days will be back, check out this release by Ntdunyett

  Words have power & we should all be careful about how we use our words.  Ntdunyett releases "Happy Days Aren't Here Again" & this is a song that you really have to focus on the words.  Words & wordplay are very important to songs in my opinion so this is one that I feel deeply.  He is speaking on some deep thoughts about how he feels & what he goes through.  If you really sit down and pay attention to the words then I promise you will feel it.  We all out here are ready to win again.  Mental health is important to us all & everyone around us.  I hope we all have Happy Days again in our future if you're not having them right now.  Happy days will be back!!! This is poetry, this is rap, this brilliant, this is vulnerable, & this is amazing.

This Can't Do Anything Right album is fantasic, I promise!!!!

 This Can't Do Anything Right album by Echo Strike is fantastic.  14 songs of greatness that I feel like any & everyone can enjoy.  The title track "Can't do anything right" is the album opener & it instantly sets the mood.  The song feels like an apology, while asking questions & having thoughts of self not being able to do anything right.  "Good as gone" is another one of my favorites on the album that I truly can relate to.  The vocals on "In my head" are superb & is full of emotion.  Sometimes you can hear a song and you can really feel the lyrics & this is one of those songs.  "Nice to see you, do you remember what it's like to look into my eyes"...this song "Hello" might just be my favorite on the entire album because of the words.  The songwriting on the song is impeccable.  "I think about you every day & in my life feels lonely, why don't you come back to me & give it another try"...when an artist is singing these type of lyrics, you can tell these lyrics had to come from a deep place & every word is meant.  To be honest, I dropped a few tears listening to this one as I was thinking about a previous relationship.  "Dagger" is one of those smooth songs that I like...the vibe of this song is amazing.  "I think it's time to say goodbye, but baby I gave it a try", with lyrics like this you can kind of tell the direction of the song "Dagger".  The sequencing of the songs on this project is perfect as well.  "Rest my case" is one of the top songs on this project as well.  The project closes with song "Reset my soul" and it is the correct way to end it.  Sometimes in life we all need to reset our soul...take care of soul...and protect our soul always.  All & all this project is great.  The more that I played it, the better it sounded.   Great songwriting & a lot of these songs will touch your soul.
