Single Review: Slip! by Aziya

There is a real attitude in this song. It is in the vocal delivery, the way words are spat out. It is in the lyrics, how there is a forced necessity to take action. Musically, this attitude can be found in the lower end, with the drums kicking up a storm. 


The song describes a person finding it difficult to enforce boundaries: “You're forcing feelings on me / I perk my lips / I can't breathe.” The aggression of the song comes from a place of affirmation, the explanation sign in the title entirely appropriate.   


When this song was born, I imagine it came into the world screaming. Despite the terror of such emergence, this baby would have been loved straight away.

Clique by Yonaka Featuring Fever 333 (Single Review)

As a middle aged man, Yonaka most definitely does not need my validation. That does not change the fact that this song is completely awesome...
