My vote is for Learn 2 Love by Hassahn Phenomenon. Classic. Bangin' track, lyrically sound, tight hook, and it paints a picture of love and how it can be hard but amazing at the same time. Good Job. This joint should be on the radio in Chicago now!

My vote is for Learn to Love by Hassahn Phenomenon. It's rare the you here a male hip-hop artist be this honest and on point about love. Great song with dope production and if you really listen to the words there are a few jewels in there.

I like Aniba Hotep & The Sol Collective's sound over the other two artist, but all three songs were very good.

I actually like them all, but I'll go with Hassahn Phenomenon. I hear good singers all the time, but it's rare that I hear an emcee that speaks English anymore. Hassahn Phenomenon is bringing something a bit more unique than the other 2 artists.

Excuse me...Did you say "speaks English?" I am dying of laughter over here. Sorry to interrupt the vote, but that is classic feedback.

I like all the songs because we need to talk about love more but I will vote for "Learn to Love" by Hassahn Phenomenon because of the combination of hip-hop, & R&B.

J.Hollins. No doubt is a good group but they are not in this contest.

Hassahn Phenomenon. The sonic variety on the song, the subject matter, the writing-- everything. It'd be repeat-worthy if I had an mp3 of it.

Thanks (as always) for sharing, Ms. Kyles.
