~ 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.

Pop standouts Zayn & Taylor Swift join forces for “I Don’t Wanna Live Forever,” the featured single from Fifty Shades Darker.

Fetty Wap misses the mark on “Like a Star.” Not even Nicki Minaj or savvy production worker can elevate this dud.

Ryan Adams, Do You Still Love Me? | Track Review 🎵

“Do You Still Love Me?” doesn’t give rock singer/songwriter veteran Ryan Adams a game changer, but does find Adams at his best.

Leann Rimes, Long Live Love | Track Review 🎵

Country-pop veteran Leann Rimes proves she has pop chops on promo single “Long Live Love.”

Nicki Minaj & Mike WiLL Made-It, Black Barbies | Track Review 🎵

Up-and-coming rapper Post Malone drops one final single, “Leave” ahead of his highly anticipated debut album, ‘Stoney.’

Up-and-coming R&B artist Kehlani drops another superb single with “Advice.” “Advice” arrives ahead of her proper debut, ‘SweetSexySavage.’
