Chloe x Halle Thinkin' Bout Me review



Thinkin' Bout Me (stylized in all lowercase) is a song by the musical group Chloe x Halle that was released on June 19, 2019 through Parkwood Entertainment. The track was released on the same day along with their other song titled "Who Knew. It was also featured in a season 2, episode 19 of Grown-ish titled "Only Human".
 
The girls take turns exchanging verses about a guy who is always thinking about his girl, but she has to lay down some rules first when it comes to making a first impression on her.
 
 On the first verse, Chloe sings:
 

You wrote me and you say I'm all you think about
Look both ways 'fore I cross your mind
Lucky that you caught me in the nick of time
I was on my way out, tryna make a dime

 Then, she continues on the pre-chorus with:
 

Gotta get permission 'fore you say you miss me
Gimme all your patience with the no complaining
I will let you know when you are done with training

Halle wants to make sure that this guy is only thinking about her on the chorus with the lyrics:
 

Boy, yeah, what I make you think about doing?
What I make you see when you're dreaming?
What I make you think about me?

 
I love this song by Chloe and Halle Bailey so much. But, I recommend that you listen to "Thinkin' Bout Me" and "Who Knew" together just to get the full effect of both songs in one take.

Chloe x Halle Who Knew review



Who Knew is a song by R&B duo Chloe x Halle that was released on June 19, 2019 through Parkwood Entertainment. The song was featured in a episode of the Freeform series Grown-ish titled "Can't Knock The Hustle".
 
Who Knew is about falling for someone unexpectedly as Chloe sings on the first verse:
 

Never thought you'd be somebody that I
Would be staying with on a Saturday night
To be honest I don't think you're my type
Yet, here we are together two different kinds

 And then continues on the pre-chorus with:

You would say things
Wouldn't listen, but I listen now
You would call me started falling cause it's different now

Her sister Halle exchanges her verse on the chorus singing:
 

And we started something by mistake
Who would've thought that I would feel this way?
This way about you
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
This way about you, tell me who would've thought of that
Who knew?

 
I just love the music that Chloe x Halle keeps on making for the show Grown-ish. These sisters are very talented and I am so happy that they are finally getting the recognition that they deserve.

Ariana Grande & Social House "Boyfriend" review

 
Boyfriend (stylized in all lowercase) is a song by singer Ariana Grande and musical duo Social House that was released on August 2, 2019, through Republic Records. It is the second single from Social House's debut extended play, Everything Changed... (2019).
 
Boyfriend is an R&B-pop song that talks about enjoying the freedom of not being in a relationship and for those who have a fear of commitment despite wanting to be someone else's girlfriend.
 
Ariana opens up with the first four lines singing:
 

I'm a mother***in' train wreck
I don't wanna be too much
But I don't wanna miss your touch
And you don't seem to give a f**k

 
 On the pre-chorus, the singer has eyes on a guy that she really likes even though he is with someone else with the lyrics:
 

  'Cause I know we be so complicated
But we be so smitten, it's crazy
I can't have what I want, but neither can you

 
Then, Mikey comes in on the second verse with:
 

Even though you ain't mine, I promise the way we fight
Make me honestly feel like we just in love
'Cause, baby, when push comes to shove
Damn, baby, I'm a train wreck too (Too)
I lose my mind when it comes to you

 
Ariana continues on the chorus singing:
 

You ain't my boyfriend (Boyfriend)
And I ain't your girlfriend (Girlfriend)
But you don't want me to see nobody else
And I don't want you to see nobody

 
Scootie and Ari later exchange verses on the third part of the song with the lyrics:
 

I wanna kiss you (Yeah), don't wanna miss you (Yeah)
But I can't be with you 'cause I got issues
Yeah, on the surface, seem like it's easy
Careful with words, but it's still hard to read me

Kira Kosarin and Carneyval "Simple" review

 
Simple is a song by Kira Korasin and Carneyval that was released on November 8, 2019 through Off Brand Studios.
 
Simple has been described by Kosarin as "a nostalgic, meditative track about adolescent joy and freedom".
 
On the first verse, Kira sings about how hard everything has gotten now that she is older with the lyrics:
 

 Runnin through the daily
got a little more complicated
more bags than I wanna carry

 
Before talking about how she misses the good old days when she was younger on the chorus singing:
 


Can we go back to that one time
When we were 16
Riding the red line
Writing a big dream
It was so simple baby
Feelin so simple baby

 
Let me just say that I am loving this chill vibe that Kira brings to this song, man. And the production by Carneyval, the man who produced this track, is just amazing. Fantastic! I will definitely be putting this song on repeat for sure.

Jhene Aiko Wasted Love Freestyle review

 
Wasted Love Freestyle is a song by singer Jhene Aiko that was released on December 19, 2018. It was written by Aiko and Amaire Johnson, who had also produced this track as well.
 
Jhene talks about how she has done nothing but loved her man the best way that she could singing on the first verse:
 

Put that on my life, everything I love
Never crossed no line
It was all because I dedicate my life
To lovin' you right
Love comes before pride
I loved you before I-I-I-I
'Fore I even knew why

 

Before moving on to the chorus with:

How did we get away from love?
How did love get away from us?
Not my time, I should wait for love
Waste of time, what a waste of love

You can really hear the singer's pain here on the second verse with the lyrics:

Only been a week I think I'm weak can't even
I can't even eat, can't sleep, when we ain't speakin'
What you telling me boy, that's a real weak reason
You cut me so deep, it hurts for me to breathe in

Jhene Aiko None of Your Concern review

 
None of Your Concern is a song by R&B singer Jhene Aiko that was released on November 15, 2019.
 
Aiko finds herself reflecting on her failed relationship, possibly with her ex-boyfriend Big Sean, and tries to move on with her life. She talks about having regrets and second thoughts on the first verse singing:
 

I've been contemplatin', meditatin'
Should've waited, should've never dated
You seem irritated, baby, why you never say it?
Isn't this worth saving?

Then, Jhene continues on the chorus with:
 

It's none of your concern anymore
None of your concern
Is it even worth it at all?
Is it even worth it?

On the second verse, the singer starts getting personal with the lyrics:
 

Of course, you on the scene with little miss thing, and trust me she really don't want beef
That's besides the point, I'm disappointed as a homie, what is it you see?
I want better for you movin' forward, what's better for you than me?

But, it's the third verse on the song where Aiko really bares her soul as she sings:
 

I was traumatized and suicidal, I'm sick and tired, I am not to blame
Once I felt the wave and not today, I'm not afraid, now I can say
Get your b***h a* off of my phone, please leave me alone
I am not your girl anymore, you need to watch your tone

 
Big Sean, who has uncredited vocals on this track, tells his side of trying to getting past his break up with Jhene rapping:
 

You know I had these issues when you met me
Results of those past damages that I haven’t dealt with
And I only want the best for you, movin' forward but you backtracking with n****s that ain't shit for you don't belong
