Louis Davis, Jr. has given at least a moment's pause, a feeling of calm, and a reason to exhale and smile, with the release of his new feel-good song "BRIGHT DAY." This is more than is typical from the Trap and Conscious Hip-Hop lane. It's a thank you, an exhortation for energy and motion, encapsulated in a bumping groove and the quiet, unfathomable hopefulness that has been a hallmark of Davis's now not-so-scattershot approach. "BRIGHT DAY" feels like sunlight pouring in through your windows from the very first seconds. The Bay Area native delivers his signature blend of bounce and lyrical honesty, and his equal parts rhythmic flow and reflective storytelling.
