Track Review : Cal_Vin ft Jungle Bwoi - Picture Perfect
The Luveve Boy is back again, with his Valentines Gift for Zimbos. Now that the beef stuff is behind us it's time for the good music to flow. This is where true Icons and Kings are seen. So as we are counting down to the Bars Of Gold LP in July, Cal_Vin has decided to drop the first single so we know what to expect from the LP. So how does the single fare ??
Cal_Vin is not only a great rapper but he is also a superb producer. For Picture Perfect he dropped all the super bass trap sounds for a chilled refreshing beat. The instrumental is sounding good, found myself bumping my head to the beat before even the first chorus dropped. The piano gave the track some soul. I like the simplicity of the instrumental and also the beat is clean. Loved the transition at the start, from the computerized intro to the main instrumental. Great work by Cal_Vin on the production.
Picture Perfect talks about what happens behind the scenes in relationships. The outside people see a perfect couple when they look at you but there are a lot of issues, arguments, fights that go on behind the curtains that they do not know. The saying " It's not all as it seems" perfectly describes the theme of this song. I like the angle they adopted for this track.
Cal_Vin has already proved to Zimbos that he is one of the best rappers in the game. He managed to win the hearts of many Zimbos whilst rapping mostly in Ndebele, a language which the majority does not understand. #Respect. This year he seems to be switching to more English with a small dose of Ndebele, which is great and will help him increase his fan-base, both in locally and regionally. His rap game was on point on this track. Jungle Bwoi was in charge of the Chorus and he nailed it Shabba Ranks style. He gave the track a serious old skool reggae vibe which am loving
In overall this is a great track, it showed the other side of Cal_Vin. Many people were used to hear him on loud and angry trap beats but he was on a more composed tip this time around. This track definitely makes me count down to Bars of Gold.
