Continuing the trend of last week, this is something I assume most people haven't heard. Truthfully, I wasn't sure about using it. It is a little bit R&B sometimes, a little Pop-y, a healthy bit of Rap and a little bit something else. Overall it averages out to Hip-Hop for me. Plus, I started doing this as a way to expand what I listen to and discuss some stuff we maybe haven't heard.
Personally, my favorite tracks were Dust and Bones, Down and King of the Mountain. Specifically the guitar loop used in the beat on King of the Mountain absolutely sucks me in and the horns on Dust and Bones are so fun and energetic it makes me want to dance.
Weird moment I don't know if anybody else noticed or cared about. What is up on Forever when Big Samir just like...mumbles out for a second of the song? It almost sounds like he forgot the lyrics for one or two words but you could just redo the recording right? It happens at 1:51 (link goes to a few seconds before). I don't know, I just thought it was funny.
