Frank Hugo is a boss in his scene, and in the music video for his new single “CEO Flow” he’s rolling as hard as a hip-hop emperor rightly should. Intro? That’s too 2010s – in “CEO Flow,” Hugo is interested in getting right into the guts of the beat with …

Few indie acts in the history of the British underground have as memorable and noteworthy a legacy as that of Blur, and for his latest release Michael Ghould covers the band’s classic “Girls & Boys” with a degree of intimacy required to do it the right way. Aggression is one …

SugaKane and Too Tone didn’t pull up to mess around in their new collaborative single and music video “I’m Paintin” this December – on the contrary, they’re looking to devastate a quiet year in hip-hop with one last stab at greatness before putting 2020 to bed. With none of the …

A veteran of the country genre, Randy Seedorff has been bringing his love for music and the Lord together for decades upon decades. His latest release, “Family Tree,” is the next evolution of his sound. His lyricism is still as heartfelt as ever, reminiscing about the time he spent with …

Tolu. A has a lot he wants to say to us in the new single and music video “My Talents” off of his debut EP Magnificent, but he won’t be speaking a word to us for the entirety of the song’s six and a half minute running time. Instead, the …

There isn’t much in this world that is as empowering as music can be, and in her debut single “Little is Much,” singer Terri Bannister does everything she can to put a little bit of missing love back into the world this December. As it’s been said a thousand and …

There’s nothing quite like watching a song come to life inside of a recording studio, and in the video for their new single “Lucky 7” rockers Jane n’ the Jungle offer us a fly-on-the-wall experience fans of heavy music are certain to enjoy. Although structured as a showcase for the …

No better track exemplifies everything that Ten Penny Gypsy’s sophomore album Fugitive Heart does right than the intro record, “Making Headway.” Consisting of the dynamic duo Justin Patterson and Laura Lynn Danley with assistance from former Neil Young band member Anthony Crawford, the ten-track effort showcased some of the best …
