LIVE REVIEW: Lily Allen – The Tivoli

As the chant “Lily, Lily, Lily fucking Allen” broke through the speakers, the sold out Brisbane crowd screamed along with anticipation. Walking on stage donning her classic black wig to pay homage to her sophomore studio album ‘It’s Not Me, It’s You’ which celebrated its tenth anniversary this week, the crowd lost their mind with…

SINGLE REVIEW Khalid feat. Disclosure – Talk

I think it’s safe to say Khalid is not going to slow down anytime soon with his release schedule. The viral R&B singer seems to constantly release tracks like it’s running out of fashion and his fans do not seem to mind. With is sophomore studio album slated for release later this year he’s just…

SINGLE REVIEW: Greyson Chance – Shut Up

The evolution of Greyson Chance as an artist is a very exciting and promising journey. The American singer-songwriter has grown so much from the viral breakthrough of his piano cover of Lady Gaga ‘Paparazzi’ in 2010 which saw him globally recognised overnight.

But it’s safe to say that some of her music is becoming a little repetitive and familiar and her new single ‘Something Tells Me’ is a perfect representation of this. On…

SINGLE REVIEW: Patrick James – Up

After the release of his debut album ‘Outlier’ in 2016 and touring with the likes of The Paper kites, Boy & Bear and Emma Louise, Patrick James has had a bit of a break to re-discover what sort of artist he wants to be. And his forthcoming new EP ‘What We’re Fighting For’ is being…

SINGLE REVIEW: Kelly Rowland – Crown

I was eight years old when Kelly Rowland released ‘Stole’ and I didn’t realise at the time just how important this song was going to be as a foundation of empowerment. Over the following years I started getting bullied and mental health started playing a factor in how I was thinking and feeling. But there…
