  • Review: "Soma" - Sofia Sampaio

    Breakups are one thing, but friend breakups are a totally different beast. Sometimes it’s easy to cut out an ex from your life, yet a fractured friendship can leave you feeling lonelier than ever. Sofia Sampaio’s “Soma” is an electrifyingly emotional track that meditates on when we cope unhealthily after the end of a friendship. It highlights the want to run away from our feelings, and yet they’ll chase us down anyways. Through deep introspection and a soundscape that blends Brazilian rhythms with gritty 90s rock, “Soma” is a rollercoaster ride that takes you to the diving lows of friend breakups– so low that we pretend our ex-friends never existed in the first place, numbing the turmoil through denial and anger. If you love alternative tracks, then “Soma” is going to be your jam– and then some. I’m a definite alt-enjoyer, so this song has been nothing but a delight to have on repeat. There’s a fantastically gritty and rough sound that lays beneath the soundscape, which is super reminiscent of 90s rock. But then it’s blended with airy pop that lifts the entire track upward with its passionate percussion and guitar. It’s a combination that’s balanced so perfectly that it’ll have you coming back for seconds, wondering why your playlist isn’t filled with songs just like “Soma”. And then when you consider its lyrics, you get this amazing track that’s both sonically beautiful and lyrically smooth. Exploring avoidance and the end of friendships, I think anyone who’s had to go through a friend breakup is going to relate so well to this song. “Soma” is one of those tracks I’m going to have on loop for a long time– the sound is simply addicting with a brilliantly catchy chorus and personal, emotional highs. Sofia Sampaio is an artist whose Brazilian roots blend with a new alternative sound to create something that is entirely her own. Inspired by bands like Sir Chloe and artists like beabadoobee, Sofia’s style is soft and honest, filled with passionate pop that intermingles with rock. It’s music that speaks to you, personal yet still universally relatable– from complicated relationships to musing on friendship, audiences are dazzled by Sofia’s precise lyricism and magnetic soundscapes. Her debut single “better off bored” released in 2025 and was followed by “Soma” not long after. If you enjoyed “Soma”, then you better go listen to “better off bored”, too! And don’t forget to drop Sofia a follow to keep an eye on her next projects! Written By Alexa Leung FOLLOW SOFIA SAMPAIO: Instagram | Spotify  | Facebook

  • Review: "On My Mind" - Static Ella

    Have you ever felt unheard or unseen when you have so many by your side no matter what? Static Ella released her latest single titled “On My Mind” on June 25, 2025. This song is about the overwhelming amount of restless nights where you can’t seem to sleep but rather think. There are hundreds of events that take place in your day, some are great, and some are not so great. At the end of everyday it’s hard to sit and not think about those moments you just went through. It’s almost in our nature to keep replaying and thinking about different scenarios and solutions. But there comes a time where you simply cannot take it anymore and you slowly begin to just let things go.   “On My Mind” opens with the most ethereal beat I have ever heard. I seriously could not get enough of this track. From the first few seconds I was instantly hooked especially when her vocals became present. Her voice was so heavenly and there was so much emotion poured into each lyric. With lines like “But she left me high and dry” and “Now I’m always frightened.” Everything about this song was amazing even the mood of the entire song was so melancholic. I also really enjoyed the steady textures throughout the song. It made it feel so real and relatable. I immediately added this song to my everyday listening playlist.   Static Ella is a singer/songwriter from New Zealand but now based in the United Kingdom. She released her first single in 2021 titled “Black and White.” Since then, she has released two other amazing tracks. Each showcasing real and honest emotions and life experiences. Her music falls under that of the electronic pop dance genre making her songs the perfect track for any day. I highly recommend giving this artist a listen if you haven’t already. Be sure to also follow her social medias down below and never miss out on another release.

  • Album Review: "." - Kesha

    On July 4th, 2025, Kesha released her sixth studio album, “.” or “Period”. It was released by her own independent label Kesha Records and announced on March 27th, 2025. Key collaborations include a feature by T-Pain, co-writing and producing with Zhone, Kesha’s mother, and Pink Slip. This song marks a return to Kesha’s pop roots, with inspiration drawn from EDM and country music. To promote this album, Kesha embarked on the Tits Tour in July of. 2025. TRACKLIST FREEDOM. JOYRIDE. YIPPIE-KI-YAY. (Feat. T-Pain) DELUSIONAL. RED FLAG. LOVE FOREVER. THE ONE. BOY CRAZY. GLOW. TOO HARD. CATHEDRAL. Kesha Rose Serbet was born on March 1st, 1987 in Los Angeles, California. She is an American singer and songwriter. Her first major success came in the form of a feature on Flo Rida’s track “Right Round” in 2009. Through her genius artistry and branding, she propelled herself to major success. Two of her albums reached number one on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart. She has had major advocacy work with the Time’s Up movement, standing in support of women who have been victims of sexual harassment.  FREEDOM. The beginning track for Kesha’s new album creates intrigue with a mysterious piano melody. Vocals enter with harmonies that echo beautifully. Tension rises in the instrumental as the lyrics begin. Kesha describes the freedom of letting go and feeling good after a hard time. The percussion picks up with a groovy bass underneath, creating an exciting beat with sassy vocals that drives the song towards the end. “FREEDOM.” is the perfect song to begin this album, as it builds excitement for what is to come. JOYRIDE. “JOYRIDE.” initiates with an exciting percussion rhythm and chord progression in the introduction. This song is all about freedom and messiness, and embracing one’s true desires even if it can be a little crass sometimes. The lyrics take pride in this way of life, encouraging others to join in the party. A techno sound is continuous throughout the entire track. “JOYRIDE.” is the perfect song for partying and embracing the fun in life’s messiness. YIPPIE-KI-YAY. (Feat. T-Pain) This track begins with heavy autotune on the vocals that is reminiscent of early 2000s Kesha. I grew up listening to her early songs, so this made me feel very nostalgic. This song is about embracing happiness and fun after and in spite of hard times. The rhythmic cadence of the lyrics is similar to many folk or country songs. For this reason, the song gives me a homey feel that reminds me of my hometown. The T-Pain verse continues on the established rhythm before transitioning into a new rap, presenting a variety of sounds and attitudes for listeners to enjoy. DELUSIONAL. “DELUSIONAL.” begins with a synth intro that has an exciting but almost melancholic feeling. This track features clear vocals over groovy drums and echoey synths. The lyrics are about the pain of letting someone drain you and finally getting the power to leave them. There’s a lot of strength in realizing one’s own worth, and this song embodies it with the lyrics and the instrumentals. The vocal harmonies on the chorus create a unique emotional impact. When you leave someone who is holding you back, you get the ability to grow into your full potential, noted with lyrics such as “watch me gettin’ hotter on your cheap TV”. RED FLAG. This next track begins with an echoey electric guitar and vocals that lie on top of the guitar while also being integrated into the sound cleanly. Sometimes you meet someone who is bad for you, but you don’t care. You want to lean into the intrigue of a red flag. That’s what these lyrics describe. Vocal harmonies and groovy drums in the chorus create a nostalgic feeling, creating the sense of youthful fun found in chaotic and wild connections. Sometimes you want something fun and exciting after being emotionally injured in serious commitment. LOVE FOREVER. “LOVE FOREVER.” begins with repetitive lyrics with an electronic tone. It is an extremely human experience to desire a dreamt love story, which is what the lyrics of this track want to describe. More importantly, wanting this beautiful connection with a particular person. This song is an emotional request, seen in the vulnerability presented in the more exposed nature of the vocals and thinner instrumentation in the pre-chorus. The verse on top of the guitar and drums have a summery feel, adding to the yearning while also creating a fun atm osphere. THE ONE. For the introduction for “THE ONE.”, there is a trumpet fanfare in the beginning that feels victorious, combining with synths that creates that signature Kesha sound. Through heartbreak, sometimes you are able to find solace in yourself. This song is about recognizing your own worth through devastating. The belting vocals on top of the trumpet fanfare and drums in the chorus create that victorious feeling, because being able to choose yourself above all is a victory. You stay with yourself for your entire life, so you need to find home in your own body and mind. This song presents this idea beautifully. BOY CRAZY. This next track begins with an automatic voice chanting the lyrics, before transitioning into vocals that imitate the automated voice with audio effects and low, even tone over the pulsing percussion. This song jumps out to me because it talks about men in a similar way that songs have talked about women in the past. However, rather than sounding vengeful, it’s empowering. It is taking pride in sexuality. This song will no doubt raise heart rates and spirits of listeners everywhere. GLOW. “ GLOW.” has a retro sounding introduction and reminds me of old arcade games. These lyrics are about turning someone away once it is clear they’re not meant for you. This could be in their lifestyle, attitude, or actions. Furthermore, you are able to glow after leaving these connections as they truly hold you back from taking pride in your accomplishments and acknowledging your own worth. The percussion is pervasive in the entire song and ties the varying tones of the songs together in a tasteful way as Kesha experiments within her own genre. TOO HARD. This song is about feeling betrayed by someone you though would support you through anything. It’s about loving someone in spite of the pain because you cannot bring yourself to truly hate them. The low vocals feel vulnerable while also seeming a little resentful. Sometimes you want to heal someone, but it’s not enough, and they end up dragging you down with them. This song is repetitive in nature but no less moving. CATHEDRAL. “CATHEDRAL”. has a mellow introduction, contrasting the rest of the album while also calling back to the introductory track. Through beautiful celestial imagery and Kesha’s powerful vocals, this song describes coming back to yourself after experiencing pain and grief. Piano is the main backing track, creating a powerfully moving sound while vocal harmonies and string tones create a distinctly emotional experience. The ending chorus pulls in the electric sounds from the rest of the album as the lyrics describe turning outward energy that was being spent on partying and other people back inward and promoting healing and growth. My favorite track off of this album is, without a doubt, the ending song “CATHEDRAL.” This song carries a strong message to leave listeners with as they finish out the album while communicating it through beautiful imagery and strong lyricism. The instrumental is also incredibly stunning, combining a variety of aural tastes that tie together tastefully into one track. Kesha’s vocal and lyrical prowess are some of the most impressive and underrated in the industry and seeing her truly flex her abilities is incredibly moving and inspiring for listeners everywhere.

  • Review: "Love Hangover" - SUZIE

    SUZIE’s “Love Hangover” reminisces on an old flame with the same rush as a trend bouncing back in style. Her lyrics and her sound are harmonious with this concept. Reconnecting is a complicated road, wanting to rush to that place of love but knowing a slower pace is safe. SUZIE’s heart is stuck, missing what they had together. She doesn’t want to move on. She wants to move closer. Love creates this brain fog, erasing logic and expressing every feeling—much like a few too many drinks. And the next day, it follows us. But this song may be the perfect remedy to help you find where you and they are on the timeline. Don’t be mistaken—this song isn’t a time machine. It’s revisiting the elements that bring us to life in a fresh era. The arpeggio fills the music with a neon glow, taking that “Open” sign on the store window as an answer from the universe to unlock your heart again. When I heard the few seconds, my jaw dropped—it felt like I might ascend to the stars. The bass bounces with that strut along the sidewalk in new kicks and a Walkman cassette blasting that timeless song through your headphones. SUZIE’s voice brings it all together with a voice as silky as the synth chords. The warmth and calmness in her vocals are like a cool breeze as you’re holding hands with that old flame. It almost makes you want to invite them out for a night drive, enjoying the sparkle of the city lights with them by your side. SUZIE is a rising K-pop artist who combines her Korean roots and time in Turkey into electric tracks. With only five songs released, she shows that she can capture a spectrum of emotions. “Love Hangover” may yearn for an old relationship, but she knows how to create a bold anthem or a cute love song. Her most popular single, “Fire,” burns with confidence, while “Call Me” takes on a bubbly vibe in flowy spring clothes. She currently has 5.9k monthly listeners with a growing following. Whether you’re romanticizing the past or strutting through a new city, SUZIE’s music is a must-add to your playlist.

  • Review: "Risk Looking Like A Fool" - Gonzo Mendes

    Grappling with the harsh reality of experiencing unrequited love, Gonzo Mendes has released his latest single, "Risk Looking Like A Fool." A personal track for the artist, Mendes shares, "I wrote this track about the real life experience of telling someone how you feel and not have it be reciprocated. Not just about being disappointed, but also being lied to when the other person can't be straightforward and clear about how they feel. I wrote it as it happened and it helped me process it, especially after turning it into an energetic positive sounding, upbeat indie pop song, despite the lyrics being about a tough experience." A stark contrast to the song's poignant narrative, Gonzo Mendes' "Risk Looking Like A Fool" is a peppy blend of pop-rock and indie-pop filled with a light-hearted, carefree attitude. The track's soundscape features a mix of compelling, rich instrumentals, driven by funky guitar riffs, grooving bass lines, and spunky beats that rival Tom Misch's "Red Moon." Complementing the single's masterful composition, Mendes delivers addictive melodies with finesse, showing off crisp, smooth vocals that convey the right amount of honesty and emotion about the artist's situation without letting the playful, refreshing mood slip away. Currently based in Seattle, Gonzo Mendes is an artist, songwriter, and producer originally from Portugal. He's a classically trained guitarist, later branching out into songwriting and production in his teenage years as he was involved with local bands and projects in the city of Porto. Mendes explores a variety of genres that range from soulful and beat driven to indie-folk songs, drawing inspiration from artists like Tom Misch, Jamie Cullum , FKJ , and Daniel Caesar. Aiming to build his platform, Mendes is releasing a new song every month and will be consistently performing live as he expands his audience.

    Shab released her latest track titled “Lipstick” on June 6, 2025. This song is about realizing the full potential and power each and every one of us has. Trusting yourself and knowing what you want is the best mindset anyone can have. There is never a doubt about yourself and the things that make you happy. This sense of empowerment and stability comes into play, and it leaves you in the end unstoppable.

  • Review: "Wildfire" - Allegra

    Rising London-based pop artist, Allegra, expresses the intoxicating and fated power of human connection, where passion, intimacy, and love co-exist. Allegra’s cleverly titled single, "Wildfire," inspires audiences to live a life consumed by hope as opposed to fear. The original, symbolic, and heartfelt hit voices a reality built on the embracement of vulnerability. There is a raw and buzzing intimacy found in Allegra’s storytelling. Her stimulating and dynamic soundscape is brilliantly paired with brutally honest, simple, and charged lyrics, innately delivering a heightened sound that parallels the divided experience of chaos versus peace (fear vs courage). In this case, the balance relies on having faith in the development of interpersonal connections and accepting its impact. Emotional intimacy and its core embodiments design trust, communication, and resilience to be key factors in the speaker’s climatic and emotional journey. The song’s narrative is framed to follow an urgent speaker delivering a liberating message on unity. The speaker’s persuasive, yet confident tone, guides the tune to hold a unique take on the rapid and at times uncomfortable truth, behind all-consuming connections. Allegra’s innovative and witty wordplay with the title itself, “Wildfire,” explores the typical unbounded and rampant effect of devastating fires to instead represent free and united interpersonal connections. Because of this, the word wildfire is defined in a positive light, where intense feelings of passion and undoubted vulnerability are linked with a vigorous and sturdy sense of unity. Allegra’s rich and vivid sound, both in voice and track, successfully create an electrifying, thrilling, and fierce atmosphere enhanced by simple, yet layered storytelling. The song is anchored by glimpses of EDM, dance-pop and strong electronic beats. As a whole, the track is surrounded by a strong sense of versatility in both genre and style. Its diverse influences allows listeners to deeply feel and connect with Allegra’s sound. In my opinion, Allegra thrives within the electro-pop and dance culture circle, due to her masterful ability to fuse a bold, striking, and dynamic tune with symbolic, detailed, and emotionally-driven lyrics. The song’s introduction is grounded by Allegra’s soulful vocals. Every lyric feels lived and incredibly sincere. From the start, Allegra’s gripping storytelling shines: “We’re catchin’ eyes / So try not to blink / Like you’re readin’ my mind / Now we’re interlinked / Don’t be afraid / We’ll move like a flame.” The initial spark and link between both parties is established within seconds. There is a mutual understanding at play, where the connection’s energy carries so much force it simply can’t be ignored. This interpretation is manifested by the soundtrack’s controlled, yet staggering sound. Allegra’s instrumental track is composed of steady electronic synths that progress and evolve throughout time, and create a dreamy and infectious environment. As the song’s narrative progresses, so does its tame and controlled soundscape. You can feel the emotional momentum through the instrumental build up, where animated rhythms and vibrating beats, outpour a surge of vibrant energy. As a whole, Allegra’s lyrics intertwine imagery of wildfires, lighters, and twin flames to depict the depth of human connection, and overall, unity. It is truly breathtaking: “We could start a wildfire / You’re the match and I’m the lighter, lighter /…/ I’ll keep you safe / Like we’re twin flames.” By the end, Allegra solidifies her commanding and immersive artistic presence. The hit single will without a doubt leave audiences simultaneously awestruck, and longing for the chance to hit a buzzing dancefloor.  The UK-based pop artist, Allegra, has stamped herself as the next hit sound through her powerhouse vocals, engaging storytelling, and addicting pop-electric sound. The London based artist beloved for her charming vocals, relatable lyrics, and overall intimate soundscapes, has enchanted audiences with her unique and electrifying dance music. Allegra’s sound is one rooted in authenticity and glamour. As an artist, she has masterfully balanced the complex harmony between subtle, raw vulnerability, and loud, dazzling energy. There is a dynamic, potent, and animated spark that's naturally embedded in Allegra’s vocals and music production. Allegra’s music has flourished because of her never-ending consistency and profound respect for the craft. Her previous original singles and acclaimed EPs have constructed her unique artistic sound to be embraced by listeners. Because of this, Allegra’s childhood dream of becoming an admired popstar, is a vision that has gradually come to life. Her success has launched her career to be put front in center within the dance music scene. Allegra’s growing online presence, collabed hits, and credible reputation, has driven her emotionally-charged music to reach greater heights and her following to evolve in popularity. As of now, Allegra has a total of 2,295 Spotify followers and 34,949 monthly listeners. I have no doubt that these numbers will continue to rise. Allegra’s artistic identity and talent does not go unnoticed. As a first time listener, I cannot wait to hear what Allegra has in store for the future.  Written By Galileah Sanchez FOLLOW ALLEGRA: Instagram   | Spotify  | Website  | Facebook  | YouTube   *Sponsored Post - Discovered on Musosoup.

  • Review: "Vinegar and Honey (Written About Me)" - Shelby Sanborn

    Photography: @saracorradoart “Vinegar and Honey (Written About Me)” is the newest single from Shelby Sanborn , a song about wanting closure from a past relationship. While it was short, it left an impact on the singer because it was during an important time in her life. Now, her ex is reaching out after years apart, which is causing her to consider getting back together with them. Sanborn recounts how the relationship went, and explains that there were good moments, but overall, she didn’t feel they were truly meant to be. This is making her unsure as to whether or not she should get back in touch with her ex; she may still have feelings, but she knows they’re incompatible. The tropical, sand between your toes, and warm sunny weather-esque production of “Vinegar and Honey (Written About Me)” is intertwined with elegance and class, which is exuded in the guitar chords and melodies. The song is primarily acoustic, with some synths, but not too much to overshadow the instrumentation. The overall sound is very lovely, and listening to the song feels like walking alongside the shore of a beach at sunset. This is supplemented by the drums, which add to the whole beachy vibe of “Vinegar and Honey (Written About Me)". Sanborn also has amazing vocals and provides fantastic harmonies throughout the single. Shelby Sanborn is a virtuoso music artist and actress from San Diego, California. She began singing and performing covers of songs at a young age, and as mentioned in the song, she studied music and songwriting at Berklee College. She began her music career in July 2018 with the release of her debut single “Desperately in Love”. In June 2019, she released her debut album Home Without a House . She has released other fantastic music in addition to her debuts and her new single, including the songs "Overcome", "Living in Winter", and "Chained to the Past". Shelby Sanborn is an incredible and very talented musician! Written By Ashley Adams FOLLOW SHELBY SANBORN: Instagram | Spotify  | TikTok  | Facebook  | YouTube

  • Review: "A Feeling That I'll Never Forget" - Latti Patterson

    Finding time for yourself is the most important thing you can do for yourself. As we get older, and more responsibilities come into our life we tend to neglect so many things. We stop doing the things we love like our hobbies, and we disconnect from those that are closest to us. But, most importantly we lose ourselves by not taking the time to do those things that we enjoy so much. An hour or even a day to just sit and reconnect with us is the best gift we can do for ourselves. Latti Patterson released her latest single on June 20, 2025, titled “A Feeling That I’ll Never Forget.” A song that reminds us not to be afraid of ourselves and have faith that we can overcome anything life throws at us.   “A Feeling That I’ll Never Forget” opens with such a nostalgic rhythm. It reminded me of hope and new beginnings which I absolutely loved. Her voice was also super happy and cheerful which made the mood of the song so amazing. I couldn’t get enough of this track from the lyrics to the message. It was all around fantastic. I also loved the steady instrumentals throughout it made the song so familiar and homey. I almost immediately added this song to my everyday vibes playlist as it brings about so much joy.   Latti Patterson is a singer/songwriter from Bakersfield, California. She started releasing music back in 2023 with her first single titled “I Want You.” Since then, she has released regularly making sure each of her songs resonate with anyone who listens.

  • Review: "ten years time" - philine

    The pressure to create the traditional “nuclear family” can hit hard, but with added pressure of figuring out your future in a same sex couple can make it feel nearly impossible. Philine’s latest song “ten years time” details this struggle, but inevitably concludes that life is hard enough to work through, so thinking of all of the negatives in the future takes away from all of the positives right now. She reminds herself that even if their future family does not look the same as everyone else's, at least she gets to love her wife truly and fully, and enjoy the time that they have together. She says, “It’s a gentle reassurance that life will work itself out, serving as a reminder to live in the present rather than getting lost in uncertainty.” “Ten years time” has a simplistic soundscape, with a slight electric guitar and drum beats growing with her voice as she carries along through her story. The first verse discusses their conversations about kids and marriage, who would carry the baby and whether or not to legally marry. Despite these disagreements, in the chorus she sings, “Forget about ten years time / Forget about down the line / Focus on the feeling that you can’t resist / The future’s full of reasons that you can’t predict, oh”. In the outro, the soundscape grows for a second until it explodes, emphasizing the message philine brings forth as she repeats the lyrics sung in the chorus. Her voice is simple and heartfelt, leaving the lyrics here to tell the story for her. Philine is from a small town in the Netherlands, and grew up with music playing a large part of her childhood. Her mother instilled her love for this artform in her, being a kindergarten aged music teacher and constantly playing the guitar around the house. Her music has turned into a way to get her own thoughts out of her head and into real life, and listeners love her authenticity and ability to put feelings into words. She says, “During the writing process, I spent a lot of time inside of my brain. I have a huge imagination, and I’m a big overthinker. I tend to live in fantasy more than reality. I get so caught up with how I perceive things and my almost movie like version of life.” Make sure to follow the social medias below to stay tuned for more music from philine.
