~ Album Reviews 💿 ~

Album reviews tend to follow a track-by-track format, commencing with an intro paragraph comprised of background information, and concluding paragraph that wraps things up. Also, GEMS 💎 – the best, highly recommended tracks – are selected at the end of each review. It should not come as a surprise to see the analysis run > 1000 words.

Nick Jonas, ‘Remember I Told You’ | Track Review

Nick Jonas, Anne-Marie, and Mike Posner join for a fun, groovy single, “Remember I Told You.” It’s not profound, but certainly enjoyable.

Mali Music, ‘Gonna Be Alright’ | Track Review

Mali Music delivers a well-written, well-rounded song with single, “Gonna Be Alright.” “Gonna Be Alright” sets the tone for 'The Transition of Mali.'

20-year-old up-and-coming pop artist Greer Wilson shows incredible potential on his sensually, satisfying single, “Satisfy.”

Caleb De Casper, Good Boy | Track Review 🎵

Caleb De Casper outdoes himself on single “Good Boy,” an infectious, danceable gem about a fatal same-sex attraction.

“X Men,” the fourth single from ‘Teenage Emotions’ marks an improvement from newbie Lil Yachty, but still falls short of the glory.

Rich Brian, Keith Ape & XXXTENTACION, Gospel | Track Review 🎵

Katy Perry, Swish Swish | Track Review 🎵

Katy Perry continues to search for momentum leading into her 5th LP, Witness. Unfortunately, “Swish Swish,” Ft. Nicki Minaj, falls short.
