A bunch of songs that are pretty good, but not mindblowing... (the ones with no comments)

In the middle of the week I felt like hearing some trap, and Spotify delivered.

I heard Ghostmane for the first time. Song was Vagabond. I liked it a lot. No wonder rap fans like this, this is some proper metal! I hate it when artists try to do other genres and do a washed down version of it. Makes them lack credibility.

Thr songs JUDGEMENT NIGHT and Mercury: Retrograde weren't as good, IMO. I like 1000 Rounds.

An artist I've aparently liked in the past, but haven't paid much attention to is Istasha. A lot of collabs with KAMAARA.

But, how does Spotify dare make me a trap playlist and not put Ash's Stupid on it? Huh?

Release Radar

- Statik G - Roses Are Red, Faces Are Blue (A 2000s-esque rock song... From a rapper... Nice. I like it when people cross genre boundaries successfully. As stated previously.)

- Borknagar - Summits (Nice. Very cool metal music. Sounds gothic to me, but Spotify said it's progressive metal with influences from folk and black metal. I do hear that, especially the black metal. And the progressiveness.)

- Karan Aujla ft. Ikky - Softly - Tiësto Remix

- Blimes - IT'S HANDLED - REVERSE REMIX

- Peachkka ft. Shariya Wise - Cre888 (I like the lyrics. Very empowering, for everyone. Like an affirmation in the form of a rap song. Never heard Shariya Wise before, I really like her flow and her voice is nice.)

- Kiki Rockwell ft. Judith - Arrow To The Knee (Makes me feel like a warrior! Powerful and... graceful.)
