“The world is unmistakably fractured and one of the few unifiers is music. I AM SOPHIA address the divided nature of society but offers a plea to ... ‘Meet In The Middle.’
The track has a Retro Soul vibe with a little dash of Reggae to spice up the offering. I have to think Bob Marley would be proud of the talent and of the message. ”
“I like how the song creates different vibes with a combination of instrument. The song is contemporary R&B, Neo-Soul, with a little exotic sound to it. Iconic Bastardz knows exactly how to mix and master a track to engage a listener. This was an audio only submission but it leaves you to imagine your own visuals.”
“Jon Vinyl knows how to utilize the slow burn to get his point across. ‘Clouds’ offers a touch of nostalgia in a Contemporary R&B vibe that simmers and sizzles in the best possible ways. The emotions in tangible and the performance spot on. Add this to that playlist you go to when the lights are dim and the body next to yours is inviting. ”
“A disintegrating relationship is brought into focus through this track by shining a spotlight on ‘That Dress.’
The ups and downs of love and the writing on the wall of the end is tinged blue by a spectacular dress that Bryce Drew sings about with passion and heart. The unique perspective, and Drew’s vocal power carries the day and makes the song stand out from the crowd of other tracks covering the same set of emotions. ”
“Gaby K reminds me of Amy Winehouse with her raw yet pure song. Her gorgeous new single “What Have I Done” is an afterthought of a good yet bad mistake. You think you are having a good time until the feelings and confusion kicks in. The visual displays her in a debate with herself and her thoughts. ”
“Tommi Waring’s vocals are warm, vibrant and tonally beautiful. This song has the bounce and tempo of an 80s style soul jam which isn’t often found in today’s music. The choice of instruments gives the song a natural retro feel and adds a natural funk. This song is a jam and is sure to turn into room into a party. ”
“This is one snazzy, jazz tune. Mellifluous vocals. Trumpet inserts dancing freely in and out of the track. Both artist vocals accenting the other. This song gives 90s coffee shop scenes. Very intimate and vocally enchanting. I would love to hear more from them.”

“Its not everyday you hear an artist marry, lyrical brilliance with a 80s style R&B/soul style production. That alone shows the genius of King Bliss. The hook song by Tselane Love is 90s R&B in its purest form. This is both fresh and innovative and leads King Bliss to a space to stall in a lane all his own. Witty, well versed bars. Smooth and chill...never changing in tone but never lacking in energy of entertainment value. This is a vibe.”
“The Thrill is an aggressive pop track. Brie takes control through her vocal delivery of revealing the thrill life has to offer. We experience excitement but at the same time we experience confusion. The song keeps you on edge but also allows you to relate. ”
“Falling in love in the warm Southern California sun. That is what this track felt like for me.
Francisco Martin utilizes a talented vocal range to unfurl his Neo Soul track, ‘Passenger Princess.’ Like a fusion of Bruno Mars and Jack Johnson this is an easy soft track that adds a nice warm glow to your body, heart and soul.
The bright sunlit video pairs perfectly with the entire vibe, so be sure and take time to watch and listen.”
“How could you not be in the ‘Mood’ after listening to this smooth easy Neo Soul groove? For a brief couple of seconds, this track felt a bit dated, but the arrangement quickly settled into a soulful delivery that is simply timeless. so I don’t mind admitting that first gut reaction was wrong.
Roni Bar Hadas unfurls this vocal gem with silky, unflappable talent and the world would be a better place if everyone took time out of their hectic stressful days to vibe to some sweet sweet music like this.”
“No one ever reaches the top of the mountain without struggling to get there. Rohan uses a smooth and easy delivery on this flow about fighting through the pain to reach to the place you want to be in life.
The track utilizes a Rap flow, but also has the groove of a slow and soulful R&B track giving the vibe an added dimension and accessibility to the emotional thread of the lyrical build.”
“A smooth and easy groove combines with a steady rhythm to keep this track moving with ease and grace. The vocal talent is silky and tender, and instills a nice romantic vibe.
Lyrically, I did crave a bit more, but even with that, this is a track I could listen to for years to come. An apt mood setter, and affirmation of the idea that everything feels right when you are secure and stable in your love.”
“We don’t always want what is good for us. Sometimes, we willingly reach for poison especially when it comes to relationships. Sani Knight unfurls this brooding track about taking a dose of pain for the sake of our hearts. ‘Ivy’ is an emotive song of longing and pain and throwing caution to wind. ”
“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. ”
“Kid Travis “Let Me In” gives a sentimental band sound. It’s about expressing emotions even when you don’t feel like smiling or letting someone in. The person who cares about you has hope that you will let them into your world.”
“A soulful track with Pop sensibilities that has hints of Amy Winehouse and a stronger connection to Elle King or ZZ Ward, ‘Happy For You’ is a tongue in cheek track about wishing the best for an ex. The musical equivalent of the South’s Bless Your Heart when someone does or says something stupid the track is biting in a wry way, and the video is a fun watch with the vintage clips setting up the emotion of the track quite well. ”
“To see so many different talented people and instruments come together to make one sound is amazing. Clinton Fearon “Trod On” will have you moving your hips to the beat whether you are starting your day or relaxing. He brings classic Reggae back with this track. ”
“Few artists can convey emotion and passion the way Paolo Nutini can. There is a timeless Rock sound, like you’d find from the Eagles or Tom Waits with a strong songwriters sensibilities driving and pushing the lyrical build.
Artistry is the word of the day as you can feel the emotion and talent combine to create a vibe that transcends time and genre. ”
