On their debut collaborative album, R&B’s most soulful singers harmonize together for a sexual healing and love pursuit project.
Jeremih and TY Dolla $ign are unquestionably the most popular people when it comes to doing hooks for people outside of Swae Lee. With these three doing your hook or ad-libs that track is practical guaranteed for success. These two have a couple of tracks together especially on TY Dolla last album ” Beach House 3” all club bangers. But these two and their favorite producer Hitmaka have made an album that’s very reminiscent of the 90’s R&B music that most of us grew up on.
This album meshes will and puts you in the mindset like you can sweet talk any girl you want. This album has 11 tracks with features coming from only French Montana and Chris Brown. The album starts off with a fumbled diamond with “The Light” that should have been the featured single during the summer. But the album as quite a few mood changing songs for those car rides with your girl like “FYT” (FT. French Montana) which is a flip of Biggies classic ” Fuck You Tonight” it’s a good reenactment, but it could have been a fresh classic instead of a modern R&B revamp of the orignal.
Then followed up by “Perfect Timing” which should be a stand out track with TY and Jeremih going back and forth. Jeremih holds down the hook “Hands on yo’body/ This perfect timing / Every time you get around me, this perfect timing”. This line right here can set the vibe during that car ride with the girl you’re in the process of shooting your shot with. The vibe continues with the Dru Hill flip of ” In My Bed” on “New Level” which you play when with a girl who is tied down by a bozo. Honesty this is the perfect song when you know your better than her boyfriend with TY and Jeremih flexing their chemistry in the beginning of the verse ” I’m trying’ to put you on that level/ You know you could do much better”. Then Jeremih takes it away with the smooth hook” You been so incomplete/ You been fell in too deep/ Wish i could read your mind”. Calm straight to the point song so she gets the messages.
If you’re looking for a vibe change it starts with “These Days” which is a song for when you level up on people. With Jeremih holding down the hook ” Things a little different these days/ Feel a little different these days/ Same old nigga, same old nigga/ I just move a little different these days”. We all had this kind of moment when that level up hits and its time to move different. Ty even gives you a line to flex on ole’ girl that didn’t want you before the glo up “I got money on my mind/ Another woman try to bang my line/ Told her don’t waste your time”. Being able to flex on people who doubted you is top 5 best feeling ever.
Toward the end of the album TY and Jeremih talk more about their insecurities and desires for love on “Lie 2 Me“, “Ride It“, and ‘Imitate” in terms of cohesives this is probably the best part of the album. The album as a whole leaves a lot to be desired which you wouldn’t expect from artist with a strong pen game. The track “Surrounded”( FT. Chris Brown) is wasteful unless you love Chris Brown. Both TY and Jeremih were very relaxed during the process of the album which was a detriment to it. They have chemistry together but it only shows on a few tracks rather than the whole project. This project would have served better for the summer time but for unknown reasons it was pushed back until now. If these artist weren’t so high profiled and certified this project would have been amazing, but because of who they are and their accolades you would expect more from them.
