algorithm is Lucky Daye's third studio album and baby… this is an album. its an experience that takes you on a journey of a relationship. one with a partner or one with the self. this album could also be about the need for balance. the want for one and the need for the other. the album features 14 songs all beautiful produced and arranged in a way that helps you to find something new every time you listen. I've been listening to it non stop since its release and i know my family tired of hearing it. they've actually learned some of the words so i say I'm doing Gods work. this album took two years to make and you can tell from the quality of the project. the sound, the instruments, the mixing of genres, word play and so much more.
honestly if you just listened to the singles released before the album, you would get a taste but not the full picture and i love that. it still leaves you wondering what directions can and will be taken on this magnuopus and even if you think you know where its going you'll still be surprised by the twist and turns the album takes. the album also has three noticeable features such as Raye, Teddy Swims and the interviewer who I'm calling a feature because these moments are scattered though out the album. with production from D'mile a frequent collaborator and musical genius who deserves his own flowers, to a Bruno Mars writing and production credit, this album is a timeless piece in my opinion. one that you can go back to in a few years/decades time and STILL find relevant or ahead of its time.
things i loved about each track
-Mary. (that second Mary… yes!) -That's You ( my favorite of the singles, the vocals, the longing, those notes at the end of the full version! What more could a girl ask for) -Diamonds in Teal (the slow build-up, the desperation in his tone, the way it can go back into never leavin' u lonely. yeah) -Never leavin' u lonely ( I DIDNT PEEP UNTIL LIKE MY THIRD LISTEN YOU CAN HEAR SNIPS OF THE ALBUM… IN THE INTRO UGH that groove is hypnotic) -Breakin' the bank ( send them curves this way. that's it) -Paralyzed (Raye's feature hit a little too close to home. the outro woo)
Think Different (there is power in fear)
Algorithm (the tone/tempo changes! GIRL THE WORDPLAY) -Blame- their voices just mend so well together like butter on toast (think big bitch, THINK BIG BITCH)
PIN- this reminds me of a song from middle school and I always go back to that song for the feeling of it, this song just took me back in time while still keeping me present. HERicane- HE PROVING HE AIN'T AVERAGE. also is the title like hers, I can? with an added e because of his name Lucky Daye, or am I reaching? Top- not gonna lie… this one growing on me. Soft- sweet as a gummy but I feel like a dummy! the production Lemonade- a painful yet honest and freeing truth.
There is so much to discuss with this album and I have a lot of questions. let me know what you think and have a great night <3
