Molly Santana "Masonic Musik" EP review☽

Molly Santana's "Masonic Musik" starts off with a bang with the song "Greenlight." The intro song's instrumental sounds like it comes straight from a 2014 chiraq mixtape, which fits Molly's off key singing style very well. The overall Chief Keef inspiration within this opening song comes through greatly creating a raging opener that brings excitement for the rest of the project.

Now we have "Want" & "Nothing like this."

These 2 songs show off Molly's versatility, displaying that she can make music for her underground rap fans as well as her new attained mainstream audience who may know her from TikTok and or from seeing her becoming the newest addition to Steven Victor's Record Label "Victor Victor Worldwide" which she signed to this past Summer. "Want' & "Nothing like this" are mainstream pop centered songs that have the potential to be radio hits. With the production on these songs I can easily see myself walking through a H&M or Forever 21 expecting to hear one of these two songs. I believe that Molly is doing a great job at bridging her transition from underground Soundcloud artist to a bonafide versatile singer/songwriter. Displaying that she can create memorable hooks and leads where she does not have to abandon her original vocal style which make her music unique.

"So lost" seems a little clunky to me being the 4th song on the project it comes in with a smooth opening but then gets drowned with 808s. It's hard to follow this song as the previous 3 songs flowed perfectly into each other. "So lost" has a lot going on making it a battle between Molly's heavy expressive vocals and the beat. I do however like the intro & outro transitions.

"Windows up" the lead single for "Masonic Musik" opens with a bouncy club drum leading into Molly flowing about getting money and living lavishly. This song is very ambient and smooth deserving to be the lead single on her project. Not much singing on this one as she just flows with her rapping on the ambient pop beat. The music video for this song fits perfectly for the spacious and dormant vibe of this song. Being released on August 16th it comes off as a chill end of summer anthem.

Lastly is "Tell me nun" taking to Molly's original underground sound stamping the project, displaying that no matter how versatile she is she'll still come back to her underground rap roots with her flow and instrumental on this song. The lyrics fit superbly as she states "I been getting bigger, tell 'em, "Meet me at the top" & "I know from the outside it look nice, but this shit takes time." Molly is fully self aware that she is knocking at the mainstream music door as she is evolving bigger and better as an artist. The song title "Tell me nun" speaks for itself.

'Masonic Muisk" is a good EP consisting of Pop/Rap hits that solidify who Molly Santana is as an artist. This project is my real first introduction to her being that I heard about 5 to 6 of her previous singles before she was signed. This project though displays her versatility full throttle. Her production team on "Want", "Nothing like this", and "Windows up" did a amazing job drawing up a gleeful head nodding experience that both the average rap and pop music fan can enjoy. I look forward to seeing what is next for Molly Santana as I will now surely go back through her discography to discover what I have been missing. Noticing the turnaround between her debut self titled studio album and "Masonic Musik" was less than 5 months, Molly seems to keep on feeding her fans with new music.

✮song review✮ ✫2hollis - trauma✫

Came across this song through the underground rap community, 2hollis starts the song with a fast paced rage beat that develops into a hard hitting EDM instrumental midway. The opening lyrics " I ain't got no time for all that drama, huh Jumpin' out that pit, I took no trauma" automatically gives a catchy head nodding experience to the song. With his underground rap esque lyrics mixed with his presence of Griffith meets NYFW 2hollis seems to be making waves in the underground curating a unique blend of rave meets mosh. Now that he has been exposed to a wider fanbase as he was the opening act on Ken Carson’s “Chaos” tour, 2hollis looks to conquer his own tour of North America starting on October 23rd in NYC.
