Really good, great message, cohesive songs. Message behind them is super powerful. That Lauryn Hill song is so damn good…

Dennis
 A more poignant take on power than I honestly expected to hear this round.

Fletch (✔)
This is an amazing powerful trinity. Definitely hits all the right marks, and I’m glad someone went down this route, compared to some other… takes on the theme. The theme of black power is incredible and is one that we all should be behind.

It was a beautiful entry into the trinity - it’s literally what power is all about. It was really really great

Urbi
It’s round 4 and at this point I’d expect players to put more effort in their trinities. This is clearly not it.

Dennis
 This isn’t really my type of music all that much, but what you’re putting together here is at least coherent, maybe even somewhat more than some trinities where I just personally happen to like the chosen songs more.

Fletch
This was not enjoyable. It just didn’t go together, even slightly, I was so confused.

Didn't expect Shego to listen to Lauryn Hill or MJB

First song is great, second - ok, third - a bit meh. I think I’m a bit confused when it comes to the concept in here - is this about mental health? Third song sticks out a bit. Overall a decent entry. 

Dennis (✖)
 This is one where I really would’ve liked to hear what you were going for, because I’m not sure I get it. I think I MAY have a faint clue of how this could translate to power, but even then I feel like I’m being generous. I like MCR and that song, but what is the fit here? The twenty one pilots is probably the ringer here for the theme but even then it’s pretty faint to me.

Fletch
An empowering trinity about mental health. As someone who’s currently struggling; some of these songs resonate with me on a personal level. However, I think this runs into an issue of putting two different narratives (Chlorine & Cancer) together and expecting it to work. I wouldn’t say it’s detrimental; but there is an overarching theme of suicide in this trinity, and it’s a different take on the theme of using music and writing to overcome these emotions. However I do find this a creative way to convey the theme.
