Co-written by his frequent collaborator Poo Bear, the record is about romantic confusion, a feeling at once authentic to Bieber-it's not hard to imagine him seeming befuddled in general-yet dissociated from his likely lived experience of romance. It's easy to see Bieber's 'What Do You Mean' as a laconic cut in this mold, an understated record that could help Bieber slyly sidestep the uphill comeback narrative he'd been forced into. For what? For a more casual style often called Tropical House, derived in part from Northern European producers like Kygo (whose remix of Marvin Gaye's 'Sexual Healing' is now getting play in the States) and Matoma, who's been releasing tropical versions of hip-hop classics to considerable success overseas. Probz hit 'Waves,' the most popular EDM has turned down. With OMI's 'Cheerleader,' Major Lazer and DJ Snake's 'Lean On,' and last year's Robin Schulz/Mr. is at the Laugh Factory.Īfter a soft-release R&B 'compilation' album-the main difference between it and a 'real album' is that it wasn't heavily promoted nor were its numbers released by Billboard-Bieber took a few PR hits (probably-I've mostly tuned them out, but I think there was something to do with South American hookers?) before roaring back on the surprisingly solid Skrillex/Diplo collab 'Where Are U Now.' The song was a major success, due in large part to its producer's prescience. It's also kind of funny that Dolph's only real stop in L.A. Although I couldn't ID the sample, it does feel like the spiritual son of Leon Ware's 'That Is Why I Came to California.' Hard to say what this song will mean for the future of Colonel Loud, but it's a definite winner for anybody's party playlist. Hanky-produced beat draws a connection between new Cali and the sparse sound of 1980s funk and R&B. Perhaps the concept was inspired by the song's thick groove, which seems closer to Mustard's ratchet sound than a traditional North Carolina hit much like the Migos' 'Fight Night,' an outsider's version of the West's production style finds new wrinkles in a familiar formula. Raleigh, N.C., rapper Colonel Loud (.that name!) has scored a major record with 'California,' a song that channels old school R&B and up-and-coming Southern nightclub circuit rapper Young Dolph for a feel-good summer jam salute to the left coast. Colonel Loud f/ Young Dolph and Ricco Barrino 'California'
