The music that we relate to finds a deep place in our hearts through time, that’s timeless.

If it's one thing, the realness of life that gets displayed in music is what truly makes some records truly timeless. Big Sean’s “Boundaries” definitely executes this example. With lyrics geared to touch the inner depth of a person. Vulnerable, real, and true, though you can appreciate the lyricism displayed of course the substance of the lyrics takes the cake. This is a very deep and introspective record, but still completely relatable in many facets. We’ve all tried to set boundaries in our lives. From the entrance of the track, the lyrics of what could be the chorus absolutely draw you in and allow you to feel as if he’s speaking to you personally. Relatability allows the music to be felt deeply. 

Better Me Than You is geared to be a gem! 

A truly vulnerable track that allows you to see the heart within the artistry. This is a little more than just rapping. This isn't just metaphors and punchlines but a conceptual track geared to show emotion, reflection, and one's journey toward emotional growth. With the vocal samples playing through the background of the record. Its accentuating purpose is fulfilled. It adds depth to the track and an extra layer sonically. Soulful, smooth, and beautiful.

The content of the lyrics and the production are in complete harmony. Big Sean allowed the music to flow through his delivery and cadence. You can completely tell he's emerged within the feel and vibe of the production presented. If being meshed had a sound, this could possibly be it. This record was well executed, and inspiring in so many ways. Being able to present the truths about some perspectives in life meanwhile keeping the track interesting enough to connect with. Sometimes we take the direct lyricism for granted but getting to the direct emotion of a record takes a certain finesse.

This is a solid view of transparent art!
