Pain by Mary in the Mirror

Humans have complex emotions, and they’re not always positive ones. Nevertheless, many have the urge to feel something, anything, rather than not feeling it at all. Therefore, some people tend to engage in risky activities to experience an adrenaline rush some get into toxic, abusive relationships with their own well, and others hurt themselves to feel some pain-pleasure. In her latest single, “Pain,” Mary in the Mirror, captures the last type that leans into pain to feel alive.

Hypnotic, edgy, and yet upbeat; that’s what “Pain” is. The alternative artist, Mary in the Mirror, located in Bristol, has her own songwriting style, mesmerizing vocal timbre, and the boldness to reflect her personal life experiences in a bare, touching manner through her music, and that’s all demonstrated in this single.

A heavy, attention-grabbing intro opens “Pain.” It gives you the feeling that there’s some sort of mystery that’s about to be shared with you. Fast enough, Mary in the Mirror’s exquisite vocals breaks the messy thoughts created by the intro with their heavenly delicate tone and twisted, dark taste. Her layered vocals embody the lyrics and set the mood along with the rhythm.

The blend of Dark Pop, Electronic Pop, and Trap hints is atmospheric and delivers the song’s message and vibe. The melody is skillfully composed in layers and mashed with the vocals to emphasize each line and convey its sensations. It’s up to you to agree or disagree with what the song’s casting down on you, but here’s the artist’s perspective:

“I personally think that there is healing to be found in life’s most bizarre pleasures. If pain is inflicted upon us against our will, then it’s intolerable. And yet, by actively seeking it when our choice is involved, it can be quite a different experience.”

“Pain” below has both heavy and light, dark and bright sonic textures, and it doesn’t impose itself; it lures you gently and craftily till you become an addict to Mary in the Mirror music and have the sense and curiosity to see for yourself the pleasure of pain.

Real Love Pt. II by Ron A.P.

The thing about love is that it has no mold; it can’t be labeled in one way of affirmation. Also, it has its own mystery as it can’t be reasoned. In his latest single, “Real Love Pt. II,” Ron A.P. portrays his own notion and vision of real love. II.”

The Atlantic City-born and Baltimore-based Ron A.P. have a dope Hip-Hop style that gets you hooked if you’re a Hip-Hop fan, and even if you’re not so fond of the genre, he gets you to respect his musicianship. With a quick scan of his music, I found out that many songs have the word “love” in their titles, and all of them discuss different themes and different kinds of love. He’s able to depict heartbreak, toxic love, and real love.

“Real Love Pt. II” is a dot between vulnerability and confidence. It captures the pure sentiment when someone is deeply in love enough to compare their partner with the thing that means life to them. In this case, like the opening bar, “I think I love her like I really love this hip hop.” Nevertheless, expressing the depth of love doesn’t conflict with being confident with what you can offer and thinking, “Bet you never had another love like me.” You’ll only need the first listen to realize the lyrical prowess Ron A.P. has. He goes for writing intimate lyrics that reflect his personal experience yet it’s relatable and applicable to your own story and its memories.

Once you hit the play button, you’ll hear bouncy beats that go all the way with you till the end, making you vibe in. The beauty of the single’s sound is its vintage touch, as old school beats’ atmosphere is taking over. His honed rapping combined with his raw, charismatic, naturally flowing voice makes the song’s emotions easily delivered and absorbed.

Each element of the song fits to deliver the picture of real love, but my least favorite element is the music video. It has nice footage, and it entices you to vibe in with Ron A.P.’s passionate singing, but it’s just not organic enough. I didn’t feel the intimacy of the lyrics and performance reflected in the scenes between the artist and the female model. It’s there, but it’s not as powerful as the single itself.

If you ever wonder what real love is, “Real Love Pt. II” below will set a pretty good, sincere example with some snappy tunes.

Putting you in the mood, the song kicks off vividly with the chorus. The instrumentation is one of the elements that play a key role in boosting a vintage vibe and making you picture yourself at an 80’s dance party.

On the contrary, it’s the thing that’s making it burst with enthusiasm. Vocally, Jayem has a voice that merges well with both music and lyrics.

Through his first song “Skin”, he throws a huge mass of feelings into a narcotic atmosphere with his soft voice, creating an endless vortex that pulls us out of time towards the meaning of unconditional love until you want your lover to touch your “Skin”.

The music is full of emotional heat, creating an atmosphere that blends nostalgia with romantic eccentricity.

“Cure Me” is another romantic song from Noviello about love, fondness, and longing, and about his recognition of his gender identity that heals and heals his wounds.

In “Heretic,” Noviello tells us about his journey between the sexes to the beat of a dancing pop that ignites the dance floor and your heart but numbs your mind.
