EP Review: Nothing Is Forever – Shon Jay

SHON JAY is that guy who set the bar high – and I mean unobtainably high among his music contemporaries.

His latest EP, ‘Nothing Is Forever’ may be only eight – tracks long, but there’s an electric mix of genres – from funk, old school soul and even an expected appearance of a little country – all of which oozes undisputed class.

Among a crowded industry that’s filled with quick-fix hits that’s easily forgotten, SHON JAY‘s ‘Nothing Is Forever’ is a true testament that there’s still GOOD and MEANINGFUL MUSIC out there and it’s definitely a collection that can be enjoyed from five or even ten years from now – I guess some things last forever.

Check him out below – it’s like listening to soul idols Stevie Wonder, Al Jarreau and George Benson, all wrapped up in one.

Must Listens: Dreamin’, Best Part (Daniel Caesar Cover), If You Leave Me Now, Treat Me Like Dis

Song of the Day: 7pm in Brixton – Political Peak

South London rapper, POLITICAL PEAK had an exciting 2018 after the success of previous single ‘One Step’,  which racked up close to 100,000 streams on Spotify. Making his return for 2019 with track ‘7PM In Brixton’, POLITICAL PEAK is preparing to set pace this year.

Reflecting on his upbringing in Brixton and journey through life ‘7PM in Brixton’ is a raw and honest offering. Peak has expertly crafted some gripping lyrics which have been executed with his trademark flow, riding the beat effortlessly.

With the track possessing lyrical content of this style and bars that take you on a journey, it was vital that the visuals followed suit. Enlisting the help of gifted videographer, Paul Whisper the visuals blend cold shots of Brixton today with retro footage from Peak’s early days.

EP Review: Invicta – Karolina Rose

With racy synth overtones meeting the atmospheric/electronic soundscapes, NYC’s KAROLINA ROSE brings on the fun factor from the eighties with her debut EP ‘Invicta’, released earlier this month.

Among the euphoric combo, Rose’s alluringly light vocals pokes through which puts me in the mind of 80s pop idols, Kim Wilde and Bananarama, especially when listening to chart-topping single, ‘Going To Berlin’ (which peaked at #12 on Hype Machine) and ‘Move With Me’.

So if you fancy a bit of cheesy pop (and I mean that respectfully) with a dollop of finesse on top, well ‘Invicta’ is worth a go. Have a. listen below:

Must Listens: Love Crazy, Going To Berlin, Goodnight Mr Moon, Move With Me
