SINGLE REVIEW: Wafia – In The Honey 

Honesty is something that has always shone through Wafia’s music and has connected her with a global audience.

Stepping back into the spotlight with…

UPSAHL is no stranger to making fiery anthems. Her discography is full of them from the TikTok viral ‘Drugs’, right through to the chaotic ‘Lunatic’, and the brutally honest ‘People I Don’t Like’.

SINGLE REVIEW: Mxmtoon – Coming Of Age

SINGLE REVIEW: Tate McRae – what would you do?

If you asked me a year ago to describe Tate McRae’s sound I think I could have done it pretty confidently. But now ahead of her debut album ‘i used to think i could fly’ which will be released on May 27, I couldn’t do it so confidently with her showing a diverse range to…
