Writing as an actual future? It's a possibility!

So today a friend of mine asked me if I could write a review for an album he produced. I said I'd try and being the nerd that I am quickly turned to my dear friend Google in order to learn what exactly I had to do.  I took notes, both on the process and on the album, and learned something crucial about myself today; i learned that I dearly missed writing, that life without writing is an unhappy one indeed. So my new goal is to write a new post everyday, okay well maybe one every week. But the crucial thing I rediscovered about myself today is my ability to write something and to write it well, a quality which I truly thought I was lacking since that horrific Fullbirght application experience. 

I know that was short, but don't fret, I'm attaching my music review too! And make sure you check out Moniere Nance because his music is kick ass!

      
  Moniere Nance’s “Beats Heart Love” Stands Out From the Rest


            “Beats Heart Love” is the perfect title for Moniere Nance’s debut album.  Each track is full of sick beats produced by Jim Agrippe, owner of Clubhouse Billionaire Records and Nance’s producer.  Every track, with the exception of one, pulled me into the song, and the intense and intriguing beats on each track had a lot to do with it. Once in the song though, Nance grabs you with lyrics that are intense both with visualization and content.  “Sky Is The Limit” had great beats and audio techniques as well as a truly inspirational message about wanting to succeed and the struggles that come with it.  “Curtain Call,” featuring Julie Holiday, carries a similar message. Nance expresses beautifully the struggles that many people share in wanting to succeed in order to support those who have always been there for you. The album carries great heart.
            While many of the songs are inspirational, there are also many that have great potential to be crossover hits.  “Lil Devils in Stilettos” has a fast paced beat that I can envision myself dancing to and catchy lyrics.  “Party In The Heights” comes off as a great club song. It’s got a sick beat and artfully used sound effects. It seems reminiscent of Shop Boyz “Party Like a Rock Star” with a new twist. The album’s last song, “Drink In My Hand,” is the perfect track to end the album.  It incorporates many of the themes present throughout the album and has a great tone of success and accomplishment.  “Beats Heart Love” shows that Moniere Nance stands out from the crowd. The content of his album makes me believe he truly can accomplish his goal of changing our world in a massive way.
