Moments Worth Waiting For
The hypnotic, slowed-down vocal hook on 'Lean and My 2 Step' that perfectly captures the Houston 'chopped' aesthetic.
The aggressive, brassy synth entrance on the title track that sets a tone of defiant independence.
The rhythmic interplay between the snapping percussion and the 'Who? Mike Jones' call-and-response on 'Drop & Gimme 50'.
