Cleo Sol by Issysrussell
I think that this is a nice exposure post for Cleo Sol, but I do no know if I was convinced that she is one of the best R&B/Neo-Soul Artist, as stated in your thesis. I definitely enjoy her music and believe that she is a great artist, but I haven’t been shown any proof that she is one of the best. I think this post probably would have been better if you brought up similar artist to herself, or even if you had added some of her old work compared to now.
Andre 3000: New Blue Sun Track 2 by Mikaelarosep
This post about Andre 3000s song exposed me to some new music my him. I agree with the sentiments stated about the song. I really appreciate the depth of the review, however I do with that they would have said more about where he could have possibly gotten his inspiration from. I think that by doing this, the post would be improved greatly.
H.E.R- Edited from someone else by Ryanbates
I thoroughly enjoyed your overview of H.E.R.’s career. It provides a well-detailed look into her rise. However, you could enhance your writing by exploring the strengths and weaknesses of her approach. Additionally, while H.E.R.’s themes of love and heartbreak resonate with many, you might consider whether her music pushes boundaries within the genre or if it sometimes plays it safe. Lastly, you could provide a more nuanced review of her activism by including how it has effected her music. Overall, your piece is strong but could benefit from a bit more analysis.
