All In - LJ Smooth (R&B) With All In, LJ Smooth delivers a silky smooth R&B gem about wanting reciprocation from the one he is falling in love with. The soundscape is that delicious late 90s/early 00s crossover R&B, with crisp percussion cutting through a lush, vibey guitar riff and a sprinkling of keys. The record brings us back to the days of Joe or Mario, with the slight pushes of tuning on the vocal that dips the song ever so slightly into T-Pain waters, especially in the chorus. Our favorite part of the track is definitely the switch up in verse 2, where the EQ slides starts a warping effect that really helps break up the song. This one is a certified hip winder, and we recommend adding it to your commute playlist.
Best Lyric: “I just wanna fall asleep while talking.”
