ninemansion returns to our platform with his fresh new lead single, “you couldve just told me,” for his upcoming album My Favorite Stranger. This one is infectious with a stop-and-go flow on the chorus that’s extremely catchy. His rhyme patterns are sharp and filled with melodic moments that remind me of a prime Chief Keef. Lyrically, ninemansion’s songwriting leans heavily into catchy phrasing and fun rhyme schemes that reinforce the song’s hit potential within today’s rap landscape. The themes revolve around dealing with a former lover’s lack of transparency and drama, while also giving listeners insight into the artist’s mindset as he navigates his new relationships moving forward. Additionally, his overalll delivery is elevated by layering his natural vocals smoothly with autotune. The production is bright, explosive, and playful. It’s like the sounds are evoking an arcade-like atmosphere through emoplugg synths, dynamic percussion, and well-balanced drill drums. The smooth 808 avoids excessive sub-bass too & enhances the track’s overall clarity. Overall, ninemansion does a great job executing his strengths on this exciting new single release & I recommend giving it a listen this week!
