Bloodlin3 are a Texas based musical group, who are experimenting with rap and other genres of music. Bloodlin3 takes inspiration from artists like Eminem and are honestly smashing it!

“Execution Day,” released on 30/09/2022, is a hard trap song that Bloodlin3 teamed up with Bizzy Bone and AC Killer to create.

This kind of rap/hip-hop is not generally my cup of tea, but once I had one listen to Bloodlin3’s track, I was addicted!

Without a doubt, the rapping in this is absolutely incredible, and they all perform it so effortlessly. Rapping itself is very difficult compared to normal singing, as it includes more breath control, but these guys have hit the nail on the head with it!

The backbeat in this is kept to a minimum, leaving the vocals to be the spotlight of the song, yet it is still effective. The beat is catchy and is the kind that gets you bopping your head to.

If rap style songs are your area of expertise, then undoubtedly you should give “Execution Day” a listen to, and I know you will love it for sure!

After previously hearing other work of Bloodlin3, when I stumbled across “Panic Attack” I was thrilled to hear more of them! Bloodlin3 are a musical group, that are situated in Texas, who heavily focus their music on rap and hip-hop.

Bloodlin3’s most recent hit is here and this time they have collaborated with Young Collage to produce this piece. The song begins with a spoken word introduction about the artists, which straight away builds up excitement for the rest of the song.

“Panic Attack” is another one of those insanely captivating and catchy tracks, with a great beat. The beat is very laidback in comparison to the vocals, as they rap extremely well, really sharing their talents.

The two rap stars collaborate and blend their personal styles together exceptionally well, and I honestly cannot find a single fault in their work.

Without a doubt, Bloodlin3’s new release is their best track yet, and I am so excited to hear what other rap tracks they have in store for us!  

If you are in the mood for a relaxed yet outstanding song, then go ahead and give “Panic Attack” a listen to!

Munk Duane has arrived again and dropped another hit, “Just A Word.” Munk creates music which is derived from the late 60s and early 70s soul and pop, taking inspiration from artists such as Marvin Gaye and Stevie Wonder. Munk, who is from Boston, labels himself as a recording artist, producer and film composer and he has even won the New England Music Award twice!

Anyway, his newest release “Just A Word” is undoubtedly a good one! The most noticeable feature of this track has got be the opening bassline, which immediately captivates us. As soon as the drums kick in, we get that groovy energy. Then the guitar immediately creates further funkiness, and together, they have created an unreal sounding backing track!

From the moment Munk’s vocals are introduced, I was fascinated with his voice! He includes the use of melodies and harmonies to ensure his voice reaches its full potential! I personally love Munk’s voice and its rawness.

This track has to be one of the best R&B tracks that incorporates funk and soul. I am intrigued to see what other tracks Munk Duane has in store for us! This is the perfect track, and you will unquestionably be mesmerised by it.

After previously hearing other hits of Jen Ash, when this was come along, I must say I was over the moon!

Jen, who has lived her life in France, uses her personal experiences to create her music. This results in very important messages being sent with the words that she sings. Jen is heavily influenced by 90s R&B, French and Latin Music.

In “No Lover Lover” is an amazingly crafted track, where Jen sings about a previous toxic relationship. Sometimes toxic relationships are hard to overcome, especially when you do not even realise that you are in one, and she loves to sing about it as it is such an important topic! These break ups usually come with a wave of relief, and you come out of it stronger than ever, and that is exactly what “No Lover Lover” is about.

The music in this track is very relaxed, yet powerful. The backbeat remains catchy, releasing a sense of strength. The main focus in this track has got be Jen’s outstanding vocals. Her soft, R&B sounding voice is perfect for this track, and as soon as you hear her voice, it will melt you!

Ajay Mathur is a great international singer-songwriter, who has been making music for over a decade and has a very quickly growing audience. I must say his music is one that catches your ear almost straight away!

The song has a joyful and triumphing delivery, with a groovy upbeat sound for the entire duration of the song. The drumbeat, guitar, and even the funky bass, combine together to create this great track! Ajay also includes unique sounds and stops within the track, which bring uniqueness and originality.

Energy Whores are a synth, indie rock artist, who reach out with the intention of bringing politics and social consciousness into music. Although this may seem fairly peculiar, it is an especially important topic, and their music raises awareness for younger people on these topics.

“Psycho Chemistry” is a track full of surprises, techno beats, synth patterns and interesting sounds. The track is upbeat and steady and has inspiration from rock, electro pop and even disco. Energy Whores have given their music an edgy feel to it, with lyrics to match. They sing about threatening their enemies and slashing people’s eyes, and this almost brings about a sense of fear.

The vocals in “Psycho Chemistry” are perfect for this track as they are soft but come across almost passive aggressive. I must say this kind of track would be absolutely perfect for being featured in a dark or horror film.

If you are yet to listen to Energy Whores, give this track a listen to, you can find it on many platforms, including Spotify!

The Paris born and raised producer and DJ creates incredible hip-hop beats with his amazing technical skills. In this instance, HURRICAN X has collaborated with Fya Nya and 70 Shine, to create the amazing piece “Galop”.

From the second I heard this track I was mesmerised, the vocals, the beat, the production, every single part of this song is outstanding! The basslines and beats are ones that release a positive energy, making you just want to dance to it. I must say HURRICAN X has done exceptionally well with the track, and he defintely deserves the credit.

However, not only is the production of this song great, the two vocalists also do an amazing job! Fya Nya and 70 Shine have two different sounds, yet their voices blend and run so smoothly together. Fya Nya has the perfect hip-hop and R&B tonality, and combined with 70 Shine’s rap style voice, a masterpiece is created!

All the artists in this song are amazing and this track must be heard everywhere! Please give “Galop” a little listen on Spotify, and you will undoubtedly find yourself listening to this song on repeat!

Christmas is the most magical time of the year, and who doesn’t love a good Christmas track? With Christmas creeping up on us, that festive joy has begun, and this is one that brings just that!

Sarah McGuinness is a rising vocalist, who has previous worked in film. Sarah decided to re-release her track “Christmas Everyday” and honestly, I absolutely love it!

The entire song is filled with joy, festivity, jolliness, and upbeat tones. Sarah ensured that it is a positive, festive-filled track, that just makes you want to start decorating your tree and getting right into that Christmas spirit! The inclusion of chimes and trumpets enables that Christmassy feel.

I think we can all agree that Sarah’s vocals are absolutely outstanding, with a flawless delivery. Her voice blends exceptionally well with the music and she is accompanied by a children’s choir at various points in the track. The choir gives the track a “carol” sound, and I personally do not think this song can be faulted!

If you are in the mood to get in that festive spirit, give Sarah McGuinness’ Christmas tune a listen to!
