    It's like reggae without being reggae, it's like jazz without being jazz, it's like big band without being big band, it's like calypso without being calypso and when that trap beat drops it just the most unique sound I've heard in a long time. I have listened to this song so many times I should be sick of it but how can I be it's too fire.

However the beat stayed in my head and Bambi on my mjnd, that I had to come looking for it. Good job to this young man

Why is it not more popular, his music is different than everyone else's it doesn't sound like these played out beats and voices.
