When they felt like it finally time to settle down, the other person had moved on. The other person obviosuly had feelings for them, but they werenвЂ™t ready to commit.

It tells a story of someone who canвЂ™t commit and broke another personвЂ™s heart with no thought behind it. The lyrics, however, are a bit depressing. It sounds like just sitting in the car with your significant other and youвЂ™re doing whatever, just happy to be in their presence. Okay, вЂњ Lovers In The Parking Lot,вЂќ is such a perfect title for this song. I do know though, that this makes me cringe every single time I hear it. I guess that is supposed to communicate the emotion of a love thatвЂ™s faltering.

DevвЂ™s flow clashes with the beat and he sounds a bit frantic and off. If that was the case I wish they wouldвЂ™ve cut the beat or something to signify that. Supposedly, itвЂ™s supposed to be more of a spoken word bit than actual rapping. DevвЂ™s rapping has gotten exponentially better since this project. It also contains the only low part of the tape. вЂњ Some Things Never Seem To Fucking WorkвЂќ is a song with a very long title. Her vocals paired with the instrumentation can either have longing for your lover or wishing that you had someone to hold your lonely ass. She knows thereвЂ™s no use, but this person means so much that sheвЂ™s still fighting for it. Right at the start with вЂњ Losing You,вЂќ Solo is trying to mend a relationship where the other person is growing more and distant. That would usually be a bad thing for two adults to make, but Solo does it in such a way where you fully relate to the emotions.

Promises of never breaking up, if this person leaves me I might die energy. This tape feels like young love, that dumb teenage love. We should thank Theophilus London for this even happening, and leave it at that. This shift had peopleвЂ™s ears open, so when Solange and Dev put this out with itвЂ™s total difference from her past work, nobody discarded it immediately. Everything sounded new, and if it was obviously a continuation of a familiar sound, it sounded refurbished. The early 2010вЂ™s allowed artists to be even weirder than they could be in the 2000вЂ™s. This tape came at the perfect time, Solo had just left Interscope to do her own independent thing, Dev had just released Coastal Grooves, and there was a noticeable shift in music going on. In my quest to review everything touched by Dev Hynes aka Blood Orange aka Lightspeed Champion, IвЂ™ve landed at SolangeвЂ™s 2012 EP True.
