Blake Shelton, Happy Anywhere | Track Review 🎵

Blake Shelton, assisted by gf and pop artist Gwen Stefani, drops a happy, inoffensive, and ‘lovey-dovey’ single with “Happy Anywhere.”

“Nobody’s Love,” the first new single by Maroon 5 in 2020 is pleasant and sleekly produced but feels formulaic and a hair too safe.

George James: Fresh pop singer Victoria Moralez is back with ‘Eyes Off The Prize’. It is a release which cements the singer’s name deeper into pop.

On the authentic, honest, and raw “Through the Wire,” rapper/singer Rod Wave reflects upon a series of life changing events.

Lime Juice are the Italian indie band who are spreading like a shockwave across the indie realms far and wide.

Though totally inoffensive & respectable, Kygo falls short of recapturing the magic of Tina Turner’s “What’s Love Got to Do with It.”

Grammy-winner DJ Khaled taps Grammy-winner Drake for “POPSTAR,” a formulaic, lukewarm trap banger at best.

Troye Sivan excels at tackling matters of the heart on “Easy,” the second single from his EP, In a Dream, arriving August 21, 2020.

With the help of Rick Ross, R&B singer August Alsina exposes his relationship with Jada Pinkett Smith on the blunt “Entanglements.”

Grammy-winning R&B artist H.E.R. takes a risk with the reggae-tinged “Do to Me” and ultimately reaps the benefits.

With “Are You Even Real?” Mercury Prize winning alternative musician James Blake delivers one of his most gorgeous offerings to date.

Kid Cudi and Eminem join forces for quite the hip-hop trip on single “The Adventures of Moon Man & Slim Shady.”
