There is nothing quite like seeing an artist trip into a groove, and with "SPEEDIN'", A.L.I.A.S skyrocket, combining lush R&B rhythms with infectious pop hooks. The newly released track is a joyride along the lanes of yearning and independence.
From the opening notes of "SPEEDIN'," you are immediately drawn in with its silky yet insistent instrumental. It plays like a late-night drive, headlights flashing and windows open, a heart on your sleeve. A.L.I.A.S is the vocal star of the show, with smooth, expressive vocals you can lose yourself in. The clarity of their sound allows each lyric sung to be as heavy as the lyrics themselves, and paired with how well they have managed to hold onto that melodic edge, Top & Jam only solidify why this type of music is always so easy to sing along to.
"SPEEDIN'" splits the difference between playlists, as at-home on a late-night R&B collection as it is in pop radio rotations. The beat knocks just enough to maintain a head bob, yet the lush harmonies and unassuming synth lines create an atmosphere that somehow feels intimate while striking. The song they play during that slow-motion scene in a movie, the one where everything's different now.
However, what truly matters is the emotional impact of the track, beyond just its production and performance. It shows the constant fight pace of chasing a super high while attempting to catch up with oneself. It's fast but also a very real characteristic of a post-modern romance strategy.
