Johndoe98, a recording artist from Columbus, Ohio, is exactly the type of artist you want to grace the majority of your playlist. He pushes the melodic and lyrical boundaries of the rap genre in ways that your average rapper cannot. He fits in with any type of beat like a glove, waving through with clever wordplay and cut-throat freestyle while balancing the scales between a sing-song style and lyrical rap flow like a musical titan.
His most recent single, “My Eyez,” is an intensely outstandingly mixed and produced rap music that demands a listener’s hearing experience with immaculate rhythmicity made even better by Johndoe98’s rap vocal style that is breathtaking from start to finish. Even after the music has faded, you can still hear the melodicism, complemented by his distinctive vocals, playing uninvitedly in your mind. The finest part is that the tune is a welcoming sight and voice in your head, and it performs some kind of magic trick of making the senses feel right at home with the harmonic progression.
The delicacy begins with the inviting harmony of the candid guitar strings that unite in a rhythmic fashion with the subtle background welcoming vocals that serve as a proper introduction to this track before everything takes a deeply melodious turn with the bountiful bass ganging up with the rolling 808’s and the abundant drums, the vocals now taking on an audible element to them and giving this track its inimitable life. The complementary lyrics help to emphasize the romantic scene, and even the catchy and memorable chorus helps to emphasize this, “Girl you caught my eyez I swear that I won’t lie…” come out as clearly as they are sung, and the captivating aura emanating from this track makes it perfect for the dance floor as well.
Life is who we are, and even our greatest romantic aspirations are worth exploring if we allow ourselves to be. The lyrical content of this song is nostalgic, and the delivery is enhanced by such deep and compelling vocals. I can’t think of a better track I’ve had recently that is brimming with such diversity and lyrical independence as this, which is why I welcome all to come and draw inspiring rhythm from this song by streaming, saving to their favorites playlist,, and sharing it across the globe, as it deserves to reach more listeners’ ears!
