Are there any tracks on this that are really standing out to you?

Any songs you love from the first few listens?

Okay, so right now it feels like a big blur.

I'll be honest.

Like it feels like a giant blur.

I will be honest with you and saying that I personally would be happy never hearing sexy red on a song ever again for the rest of the fucking life.

Like, I am very, actually really, really like the song Sweet Spot until sexy red comes on.

And I'm like, what?

Fuck. That's a whole other conversation. I'm trying to argue anything you like you make me weird. Uh-huh. Put it on me, baby. That's a whole other conversation. That is a whole other conversation. I'm pro-sexy red. And anti-interludes. So we're here to argue today. Yeah. I really like, there was one that I tried to make a note of a mental note because I was like, I really liked this.

Maybe it was walking away.

Okay.

Butterflies, I remember really liking.

I think Butterflies is a real standout.

He's doing some like classic R&B performance on there.
