HIT THE NOTE: GOOD BOY BAD WAYS, AN ALBUM REVIEW PART 5
SOMETHING NEW WITH TIKO$E ON “NIGHT NURSE”
Sexy and different from the first time it hits you, this
track slowly reveals itself to be a dark horse in my opinion as the best song
of the album.
Once again TIKO$E’s confidence and growth shines through,
his vocals are laidback and smoky as always, the rhythm of the track is slow,
steady and intoxicating. Each layer glides over the next with ease and mastery,
it evokes a tender and sensual feeling in you as the deep bass bounces from
wall to wall.
Notably missing here is the overwhelming presence of the
strumming or plucking of the guitar that has been very present throughout this
album, but that has been replaced by the buttery vibration of the elegant piano
chords guiding the song as it crescendos and then carefully rounding it out.
TIKO$E proves that he is not afraid to take on a new shape
or form, he experiments masterfully on this album, making it one of his most
diverse works till date. The album is littered with distinctive tracks like this,
which are usually elevated by his silvery vocals that has by now been mastered
by him and is somewhat of a trademark.
“NIGHT NURSE” is a different track that perfectly summates
the vibe of the album; different, sexy, diverse and addicting. Anything ,but
mundane.
