I don’t at all times cowl Jay Park’s releases on the weblog since he’s lengthy since shed the guise of “idol performer,” but it surely’s price noting new single Taxi Blurr merely due to its function. Woman group Kiss Of Life are quickly gaining recognition, and member Natty has already confirmed herself a compelling soloist.

Taxi Blurr rides the present wave of Y2K nostalgia, pulling in components of late-90’s r&b and the occasional skittering dance beat. The music by no means leans too far into the latter sound, relegating its upbeat power to the refrain. A lot of the monitor is a languid examine in environment. A central melody loops by way of Taxi Blurr with loads of repetition, by no means rising into something extra spectacular than the vibe we’re introduced proper at the beginning. The music is extremely easy, however each Jay Park and Natty have delivered extra memorable materials prior to now.
