Single Review: “Signs” by Drake – Listen NOW
Drake has premiered a new song titled “Sign”. This new single is inspired from Louis Vuitton and Drake has already given the premier right to the brand. Maybe, the paid him big time or he probably just wanted to do a song for the brand that he loves so much. Whatever is the case, we […]
Stream Single “Connection” by One Republic
OneRepublic has premiered a new track titled “Connection” and it already feels like a massive hit. The band hasn’t released a new track since 2014. Now after such a long time, a hit was due. After listening to “Connection”, I feel like this hit is here and it’s bigger than our expectations. The new song […]
Single review: Sia – ‘Chandelier’
Sia’s first single proper, ‘Chandelier’ takes a few listens to really grab you, as its large soaring notes and autotuned undertones struggle to gain traction at first as Sia’s powerful voice is used more for impact than necessarily good music. But her energy and power soon show themselves, and though it lacks the emotion and […]
Single review: Rough Copy – ‘Street Love’
Coming fourth in last year’s The X Factor, Rough Copy have taken the classic Anita Baker song ‘Sweet Love’, keeping its famous hook-filled chorus but slapping so much autotune on it I’m surprised a computer isn’t credited in the sleeve notes. Thrusting the famous hook in amongst an even more heavily autotuned set of verses […]
Single review: Robin Thicke – ‘Get Her Back’
With the Blurred Lines album and song now behind Mr Thicke, but possibly not the controversy, he’s now moved onto a new album from which this is the first cut, all about his estranged wife ‘Paula’. ‘Get Her Back’ is an ode to his wife but if this was the sort of thing my partner […]
Single review: Lenny Kravitz – ‘The Chamber’
Kravitz is back with this first cut from his tenth studio album ‘Strut’. ‘The Chamber’ boasts a familiar bass sound that I can’t put my finger on, which distracts me more than it should from a track that doesn’t really do anything particularly exciting. With shades of classic Blondie in its retro sounds, it’s a […]
Single review: Hedley – ‘Anything’
The first cut from their album ‘Wild Life’, Canadian rockers Hedley deliver this track that cherry-picks styles from across the board, including Mia’s ‘Paper Planes’ and the discography of Train. Its expletive-based hook belies a song that screams out for radio play: its sunny, optimistic, clap-along nature with a mixture of vocals during its titular […]
Single review: Chasing Grace – ‘Run’
Effectively balancing the male and female vocals of the group over a rattling drum beat that wouldn’t be out of place on a Sam Smith record, ‘Run’ is not a track that will blow you away with a distinctive chorus and set of verses, but it’s a solid enough indie-pop song with some shades of Lady […]
