‘Here I Go’ by Lánre delivers amazing sonics and heartfelt songwriting!
‘Here I Go’ features a funky groove, rich melody, dynamic mixing, R&B influences, and stellar production. The guitar filter gives it a slap and brightness, and the bass takes the forefront of instrumental rhythm. Then, the synths build into a full tonality range that’s lifelike but not overpowering. What really takes the forefront, though, are the vocals. They hit a range that’s bright, full, and intricate. Also, the dynamics are amazing, which can be heard through a key change at 02:27 after an atmospheric instrumental bridge. Lyrically, this track tells a story of love. It explores a yearning to be loved and a need to be affirmed in said love. The lyrics capture realistic feelings but also a heartwarming narrative as that love and affirmation are found. This track is proof that pop music has a range that’s so much more than one-note.
