Song Reviews
Hearlfelt Gospel Tune
With a breathy close up vocal, this tune sounds full of genuine emotion. Would love to hear it with a Gospel Choir in the background to bring out the passion even more. Love the Barry White vibe to the lead vocal. Great work.

We need music like this.
Very nice piece of love music. You should send to klove station. They have only God songs. You’re next Barry White, voice deep like his plus another octave. Bravo ???? I like it a lot. Nice harmony and bit. Needs a little bit of mixing better and is radio ready.

Gospel came a long way!
I have not been listening to gospel a great deal, I must admit, and didn't notice the transition from traditional gospel to R&B, Hip Hop and Jazz. This is a interesting combination of vocal jazz, R&B and Christianity. Ddefinitely a professional recording and excellent singing.

Can't Live Without You by Tony Kelly
A beautiful mellow Jazz Pop Genre song. This sounds mellow from the start, but it is a song of a cry for help to The LORD. A seasoned vocal talent singing this praise and worship. This instrumentation is complex and multi-layered. The percussion takes this song along to make it singable for the listeners to sing along. Backup singers add extra dimension to the song to carry it along on the bridge of the chorus. I am not too keen on the electronica at the end, but that is a personal preference in listening to Jazz. However, I find this song and sound refreshing and it sure makes me feel closer to God listening to it which is the point and aim of all Gospel songs to help the listener draw near to God.

I like it
This is a great song. It’s very different in so many ways I can’t describe. I want you to continue keeping up the good work and making good music for all of us. Your voice is on point and it matches the vocals and the instruments to the song. The background vocals are on point and they collaborate with your vocals. I will put this song on my playlist and play it each time I see it. Thank you so much for your good music.

Good Work!
I like the originality of your work. Strong message and creativity is a big plus. Good production, good vocals, good job on the final mix-down. I can tell you have your heart and soul into what you do. Keep on pushing and never give up or get distracted in pursuing the dream of making it. I like the instrumental blend of sounds with the vocals and the production on the track is good. Keep up the great work! Peace!!!

Breathy Luther Vandross
I listened to this tune first a couple weeks ago. The thing I remembered most was the breathing in the beginning of the song. The theme of the lyrics of the song IMHOP is that the singer cannot live without the Lord. I thought the song moved in a Luther Vandross vein. It’s light jazz tinged gospel. It’s a nice tune. The breathing at the beginning really cued me in to the yocalist recorded inhales after singing each verse. So breathing was, at least for me, placed in the forefront. The music was nice. The vocalist had talent. I was thinking the breathing was an “I can’t breathe” social statement protesting police mistreatment/seeking a positive change forwarding social justice. However. the tune’s is gospel and appeared to be about not being able to live without Christ in your life. So, I was a little perplexed. The quality all around was professional. Nice job.

Combination of Artists reminiscent
Good beat, correct Biblical account. Similar to Barry White and another I can't remember right now. Drumming, production, harmony is great. Your group could do mainstream music as well. I love everything about it. Fantastic voice, breath, timing. Thanks for sharing with me.

80s Soul
Good 80s song in the style of Stevie Wonder (and many more). Especially the synthesizer and the (partly) voice doubling or chorus effects sound very 80s like. Vocal performance is good, it fits well in the song. I don't like the intro. I would put more melody, more instruments at the beginning instead of groaning. Not a modern sound, no pop, just for connoisseurs of this genre.

buona voce maschile
buona voce maschile che canta un pezzo gradevole anche orecchiabile. ma un po' monotono buono l'arrangiamento e tutta l'orchestrazione una voce un po' studente con buoni cori grazie per la review

inspirational.
Strong vocal, although it's mixed a little too high in the mix. Some funky 70's keyboards sounds that really fit the song. Nice chorus. A touch of reverb on the vocal (just a tiny bit) would really help blend the vocal in the all the lush keyboards. The lead break needs to be boosted. the vocals overpower the break too much. All in all, there is a lot of potential with this song, but the mix needs more work. Keep up the good work and God Bless!

An arrangement from Heaven
The arrangement and orchestration in this modern gospel work were impeccable. Indeed, the music was as strong as the message. Everything was in its place. Though a male vocal timbre was adequate, my ears were waiting for a Shirley Caesar or Mahalia Jackson to deliver the melody. Oh well. Cant have everything.

Smooth and Jazzy
Smooth and jazzy. This track has been mixed and produced to a very high standard. The vocals are clear and completely understandable, The percussion is up front and makes a person want to sway to the beat. The keyboard is mixed back in the mix creating a great texture without overcoming any of the vocals. A saxophone solo can be heard in the middle of the song and then some great vocal harmonies come in to accompany the lead vocals. Nice piece.
