The bar Loe continually raises within her own catalog is not an easy feat. The Monarch artist taps her pool of producers to bring a conscious stream of fantastical-sounding songs grounded by her lyrics. And the latest song, Flighty, is no exception.
The Burnin Giraph-produced and Sebastian Ramirez featured song practically casts spells through the beat alone. A swank chord loop around a manor paired against a deeply dug, clicky kick pocket, misty percussion and a squirmy bassline with a secretive funk draw lifts this song to heights where we speculate heaven is. Giraph's production is hard elegance and Loe's vocals, as they tend to do, play towards a tough exterior in the lyrics, sounding pretty.
Loe sings very sub rosa, as if there is a place she only knows about that she wants to take other girls, or rather this one girl to. Her excitable melody and dominating dreamy harmonizing is where the song opens its wings and the desire can be seen, no, it can be heard in the vocals. Flighty makes me feel a similar way to Post Malone's Up There. Loe makes it feel like something greater and perhaps incomprehensible is attainable. And what is up there, to quote Post: "Must be better than the hell on the ground."
Listen to Flighty below.
