“Written by Solomon Jaye, “Monsters” is a smooth-groovin’ duet between Jaye and singer / stage actress, Shoshana Bean. Lyrically similar to a recent hit of a similar name by Eminem and Rihanna, I’m not sure which is the “chicken” or the “egg.” However, Jaye’s is an overall better written and more enjoyable song.”
​
“Ordinary Man is a very creative combination of soulful music for every occasion... Ordinary Man keeps you engaged by changing up the content and style... The arrangement is perfect and the vocals really highlight the instrumentation.”
