Moments Worth Listening For
the sudden shift into a rapid-fire, bar-heavy rap verse on Django Jane
that unmistakable Prince-indebted guitar lick that kicks off Make Me Feel
the lush, choral vocal stack that opens the title track with Brian Wilson
the way the beat drops into a heavy, distorted synth groove on Screwed
