SINGLE REVIEW: Tonight Alive – Crack My Heart
With their fourth studio album “Underworld” just around the corner Australian pop-punk favourites Tonight Alive have just delivered their second single. “Crack My Heart” is less pop infused and catchy as their lead single “Temple” and reverts to their prominent rock roots.

SINGLE REVIEW: Camila Cabello – Real Friends
“Real Friends” is the second instant gratitude track from Camila Cabello’s self titled debut album and she really is providing an eclectic collection of soulful infused RNB-pop. “Havana” delivered the tropical cuban dance pop vibes, “Never Be The Same” provided the emotional and reflective pop elements and “Real Friends” strips it back to give you…
SINGLE REVIEW: Camila Cabello – Never Be The Same
“Havana” has become one of the biggest songs of 2017 and I couldn’t be more excited about that statistic because lets be honest, it’s a BOP. The year has been a massive year for the songstress.
