Babyface: Return of the Tender Lover
Babyface
Return of the Tender Lover
(Def Jam Recordings)
Babyface is one of my biggest inspirations in knowing that my path would be songwriting. I admire him; he has this natural way of being simultaneously vulnerable and cool. Itâs a testimony to me that a great writer has to dig deep. His lyrics effect you, yet the melody complements it classically. âFight for Loveâ gives me that 90âs Babyface feel and it feels so good. âSomething Bout Youâ makes me anticipate a live rendition. It reminds me of falling in love in the spring. The whole album sounds live, which adds an element of authenticity. It isnât of your average young listener, but very appropriate for his demographic. True fans will be singing every word, which is his âthing.â âI Want Youâ needs to be played on a cruise to your favorite spot. It feels like a good time. Whatâs not to love about music that feels and makes you feel good?
