The smooth R&B groove spreads comfortably.This album by the American R&B duo Around The Way fuses smooth melodies with light rhythms, creating an urban, sophisticated sound reminiscent of the early 90s. The soft groove that unfolds from the opening is soothing, and the vocal harmonies quietly envelop you like a city night. The beat is understated yet carefully constructed, and the melody flows naturally and elegantly. In "Really Into You" and "Smooth Is the Way," jazz-inspired chords create a refined atmosphere, clearly demonstrating the beauty of '90s R&B. While avoiding flashy developments, the delicate layers of production add depth to the entire work. The sound, which prioritizes texture over flashiness, maintains a timeless, comfortable listening quality. A hidden gem of urban R&B with a quiet persuasive power. |
