Ashley Singh, 17 | Track Review 🎵

Indie pop has just opened its door to the fabulous new release from Ashley Singh. ’17’ is a track with heaps of charisma and a sharp melody.

On “On My Own,” Shamir delivers a compelling rock anthem where he expresses being sufficient being on his own, sans love, post-breakup.

Deceased rapper Pop Smoke is unapologetic and tough AF on “Make it Rain,” the promo single from his forthcoming, posthumous debut album.

JAHMED joins G-Eazy and Drew Love on the remix of “Love is Gone,” a ‘woke’ protest song that originally appeared on The Beautiful & Damned.

Although totally unexpected, Lil Baby delivers an insightful, totally worthwhile protest anthem with “The Bigger Picture.”

Meg Lawrenson returns with her new single ‘Use My Body’. For me, possibly the best single from Meg in recent times. Read the full review.

George James: It is not very often that I came across a track quite like ‘We’re All Going 2 Die’ by No Serial Killer. Read our review here.

George James: I am not too familiar with this Complex’s backlog, but one thing I know is how great his new track “Where We Came From” is.

Terrace Martin and Denzel Curry, assisted by Kamasi Washington, G Perico, and Daylyt, deliver a powerful protest track with “Pig Feet.”

Tee Grizzley, Queen Naija & Detroit Youth Choir express their emotions + frustrations with police brutality & racial issues plaguing America.

Country singer Mickey Guyton provides thoughtful commentary on race and celebrates blackness on the moving single, “Black Like Me.”

Trey Songz lends his voice to the movement & protests on racial inequality & injustice with the brilliant “2020 Riots: How Many Times.”
