The combination of Like, Phonte, and Terrace Martin on "Partywitcha" has sparked up a listening experience reminiscent of Slum Village, albeit recontextualized in the modern era.
Like is a Grammy-nominated producer and acclaimed lyricist whose credits span tracks from some of our favorite rappers. Recently, he unveiled his brand new album Today Sounds Good, and the closing track "Partywitcha" is certainly one of the standout moments. With its introspective lyrics and incredibly soulful appeal, this honestly sounds like something I'd hear in a movie during the Black Film Renaissance of the early 2000s. This is accentuated by Phonte's and Like's verses about romance and having a wholesome good time, along with the charming sax solo to bring the track to a close.
