April Favorites

July Quin - "Nobody"

Quin's album, 'Dealing with Doubt' dropped earlier in the month and he murders this song like it literally nobody's business. This upbeat, yet dark song challenges you to cherish the time that you have before it's too late.

Favorite Line: They say that this is the best time when you discover your best side through all the sin that you about to commit.

Murs - "Break Up (The OJ Song)"

I recently went to a Tech N9NE concert where Murs performed and as soon as he sang this I knew he was singing about me. We all have that ONE person we love so much, but hate at the same time. This song is perfect for those in between moments.
Favorite Line: Started missing you again last night 'til I remembered all the reasons that your ass love to fight. It's like, dude I really wanted this to work, but you had to get your shit together first.

Alabama Shakes - "I Found You"

Alabama Shakes has took the world somewhat by storm appearing on shows like SNL and Letterman. With their newly released album 'Sound & Color' that I am also obsessed with I had to pay homage to my favorite song from 'Boys & Girls' that has been finding itself on every playlist I've made this month.

Favorite Line: If it's not the real deal then I don't know it 'cause it sure does feel, and I think it sure does show.

Lion Babe - "Jungle Lady"

Lion Babe slays in 'Jungle Lady' with her smokey and sweet voice. This song is cocky, but at the same time pretty humble. 
Favorite Line: Baby don't be shy let's go and fall in love. Hold each other close and watch the stars above.

Snakehips - "Poison" ft. Daniella T.A.O.L.

From the alluring instrumental to the sultry vocals by Daniella T.A.O.L. this song is so perfect for those night time spring/summer adventures when you're already a few in.
Favorite Line: I could be forgiven for giving you the run around there's no good pretending.

ArchDuke - "Ama be Happy" ft. Jenee Jones

This feel good song is perfect for those days when you wake up in a bit of a funk. I promise that if you play this you will feel invincible by the end of the first chorus. ArchDuke delivers on this encouraging song that just makes you feel...well, happy.

Favorite Line: My hearts been torn into pieces. My prides been crushed and egos been dimished. My life's been tossed to the floor to the ceiling. Up and down like I live on a coaster but still I say love keeps lifting me higher.

March Favorites

Marlee in the Mixx - "Cloud 9"
"Cloud 9" is a subtle song about obsession. Marlee in the Mixx perfectly capture the feeling of being completely, and utterly infatuated with a person in this hallucinatory song.

Favorite Line: You got highed up, drugged out. Why you all I think about? Kiss my lips. I get my fix. Inhale my fire. Blow me out.

XiT - "Young(er)"

In XiT's album, "Young", he talks about the ups and downs of being young and passionate. This track captures the feeling of summer euphoria, when you feel invincible and golden.

Favorite Line: High off life, chasing feelings of euphoria. This here's a story of a young dream chaser trying to get green paper. Need a secret like Victoria.

The Peace and Body Roll Duo Boomscat - "Private Show"

From the surging synth to the fervid vocals this is the perfect "sexy time" song. The lyrics are assertive, yet modest- which pretty much sums up the perfect lover.

Favorite Line: Baby, I don't wanna talk. Maybe I just wanna uhh, touch you in your favorite spot. Tell me you won't give it up?

Purple Ferdinand - "Wasn't Taught to Love"
From her debut, "The Dragonfly EP", Purple Ferdinand woos us with her vulnerable lyrics and wispy acoustic guitar in this alluring ballad.

Favorite Line: Distorted visions through love no reality. I believe in no such thing as sanity.

Ejaaz - "Guap"
Ejaaz is definitely an artist to look out for. On "Guap" Ejaaz achieves a form of dark ambition on this new wave track.

Favorite Line: I'll be damned if a damn ever stop my growth- no. Progression is vital. The heart carries love in a spiral.

JP Saxe - "Far From Broken"

In "Far From Broken" JP Saxe sings a soulful tale about trying to get over someone, but at the same time not losing what their love has brought you.

Favorite Line: My heart won't hold for someone else. Losing you can't mean losing myself.
