I don’t think thats necessarily a negative. Its this relationship that pulls at you emotionally, and makes you forget its essentially a funky dance tune.Ī lot of the songs are very familiar, ‘Somethings Never Seem to Fucking Work’ and ‘Losing You’ could almost be the same track. It just glides above the drum machines, almost seeming disjointed, but in retrospect, its rather harmonious. This was definitely achieved in the vocal melody, so simple and legato. Those kinds of songs you listen to while driving, and you start to daydream about all the boys you have ever been with. Its got a vibe, and a beat you can dance too (**check out her super sweet dance moves in the film clip below) but then its also got a sincerity and a vulnerability in the vocals and melody that allows the song to rest comfortably in the smooth, background, funky family.

The reason I sum the experience all up to one song is because this one song perfectly executes all the thematic elements suggested throughout this album. I fell in love with this track the minute I heard it. If I had to sum up this listening experience, I’d cc you to ‘Losing You’. No, don’t let the release date being almost a year ago fool you, this starlet Solange is trending further and further into the commercial pop realm with every single she drops from this extended play. Track to Skip: ‘Looks Good With Trouble’ (but, still listen to it)
