REVIEW: SKALES – BADMAN LOVE
Veteran singer and songwriter Skales released a brand new single titled, ‘Badman Love’ This single serves as a follow up to his previous single ‘Selecta’. ‘Badman love’ is a track off his coming project titled ‘Healing Process’. The afro-pop record was produced by Kezzi.
This is a simple song with soft rhythms, melodies, and vibes embedded in it. Skales got a simple well-produced instrumental which sounded like the new piece in the industry, his soft romantic vocals laced on it blended well on the instrumental. The song begins with the regular afro-pop drum sequence, simple major chords progressions and vocals from Skales. Badman love is that simple romantic song with a direct message of tough guys falling in love, nothing complicated, or too simple in this song.
The chord progression and instrumental of the simple afro-popo instrumental is a copy of Joe Boy's 'Baby' instrumental. Skales tried infusion the new sounds in the industry, at some point, his vocals sounded like 'Oxlade'.
Skales vocal artistry on this instrumental is above average, Badman love is that song likely to pass the test of a repeat on your player.
