Music Monday 8/3/15 | Hotline Bling by Drake
Well, Drake has done it again. My Music Monday pick for 8/31/15 is Hotline Bling by Drake. I’m usually not a down-tempo hip hop fan. I like stuff in the 100 to 115 BPM range (yes, I’m a HUGE 90s hip hop fan when everything fell into that range). This one is around 70 Beats per Minute (BPM) but the good news is I can fit it in my high energy sets by doubling the beat. Did I lose you on that? Drake once again gives us a fantastic hook and the instrumentation is so simplistic that his rapping really stands out. This guy has been putting out some club bangers recently and while recently he has been on a more “hard” hip hop flow – (i.e. Energy, Back to Back, etc.), this one completely flips the script with a more melodic chorus (similar to some of his older singles “Hold On We’re Going Home” and “Best I Ever Had”). Anyway, I think this track will around a bit. Get ready to here this one A LOT!
