RECAP:

Day six with Smino Monte Booker and Jean Deaux renting the studio. Sad to see them go after the past 6 days of making music here. The verse Jean Deaux put on this track last night was the cherry on top. The “okay, we can leave now” feeling of completing something very, very solid. Definitely my favorite song of the many they worked on, she snapped on the verse. Smino also did a great job on his verse and my favorite part is the hook. Julian laid some guitar parts down to give Monte’s electronic production some human elements… It came together in a nice natural fashion and I’m excited they made good use of their time with us.
