If Junii's new album "JINX!" were a deck of Joker cards, then "boreddd" is the neon-sign ace. An irresistibly catchy, pulsating track with razor-sharp speed and charisma, the euphoria-inducing "boreddd" serves as an undeniable highlight on the project. Simply put, it is a song meant to be played repeatedly.
Right out the gate, "boreddd" is all seductive bounce and effortless cool. The beat nods hard to the gold era of Timbaland and Missy Elliott, syncopated, slick, and with just enough sass to keep you on your toes. With a quick swing to the groove, you get caught in that feeling with every bar. It warms the heart when Junii delivers. It's not just that their flow is charismatic, it is also dextrous, emotional, and meaningful. Each line is bar after bar, not only pendulating on the track but with a presence that is both understated and calculated. It almost feels like the chilled rhythm collides head-on with the energized lyrics, and it gives you wonderful blue balls.
And then there's that chorus that punches like a sneer in the night, tantalizing, tormenting, and all hot. This is a hook that makes you instinctively lean in, because you want to be sure not to miss anything. It sticks like that classic bubblegum, savvy, as well delivered and performed.
