Single Review: “Enough” – Amahla.
Chill out track of the day – “Enough” @amahlamusic That fat electric piano. THAT voice! Amahla states emphatically that Nina Simone was the blueprint and that she makes protest songs for gen z.

Single Review: “Married By Elvis” – Begonia
The title of this song is what got my attention.

This song is about …
