The track slowly begins with a subdued melody, making room for the soaring vocals courtesy of both Kehlani and Syd. Shimmering production elements, a catchy rhythm, and an overall feel-good vibe round out the rest of the latest sonic offering from Howard and Guy Lawrence. The VIP Remix kicks things up a notch, complete with a faster beat and an unmistakeably distinct house music flair.
