Yung Bleu - Jeremy (Album Review)

preview

“Be OK” is one of those soul-replenishing tracks that delve into themes of prioritizing family over financial gain and triumphing over adversity. Despite the gentle production, characterized by poignant piano melodies, Yung Bleu delivers impactful rap verses that add depth to the narrative. John Legend’s profound singing elevates the track even further. However, the children’s choir, while adding a unique touch, could have been sharper to make a more significant impact. Nevertheless, the song remains a standout with its powerful message and emotive delivery. 
Everything else about “Unfamiliar Lands” is blah, including Yung Bleu’s first verse (Can you believe this ninja said he was getting money like Epstein?). I do think the second verse is OK, and I appreciate the vulnerability he shows throughout. 
Yung Bleu’s penchant for legal entanglements seems at odds with his soulful vocal prowess. In “Court In The Morning,” he vents his frustration with the repeated ordeal of attending court hearings, even contemplating skipping them altogether. While not advisable, his resolve reflects his weariness. Bleu also hints at his readiness for conflict, a stance that could only compound his legal woes.
It’s intriguing how the tone of the song diverges from its lyrical content, isn’t it? You might expect something more aggressive, but instead, Yung Bleu delivers his verses over a gentle backdrop, reminiscent of a slow jam dedicated to intimacy. Despite the contrasting elements, Bleu fearlessly pours his soul into the vocals, seamlessly blending melodic crooning with occasional rap segments. It’s a showcase of his versatility and skill, making this track a standout representation of his artistry.
“Confirmation” embodies everything you’d expect from an R&amp;B track: heartfelt vocals, poignant lyrics exploring romance, diverse melodies, polished yet tender production, occasional vocal interplay with a female counterpart, and a captivating guitar solo towards the finale. Its composition is so seamless that it could easily be mistaken for an AI-generated masterpiece.
I prefer the non-Lil Wayne version of this track. Lil Wayne absolutely should not be on this s**t. 
“Is There Someone New?” by Yung Bleu encapsulates the emotional turmoil of discovering your ex has moved on. Set against energetic production that blends bass-heavy beats with mellow vibes, Bleu delves into the significance of closure and its effect when a past love finds a new partner. His urgent delivery, intermittent bursts of rap, and genuine curiosity about his ex’s new life makes it a juicy listen.

Yung Bleu’s versatility often goes unnoticed, but he’s truly a rare artist who excels in both rap and R&amp;B. Jeremy showcases his ability to seamlessly transition between these genres, offering listeners a diverse musical experience. 
Yung Bleu is definitely a real one. In Jeremy, he authentically delves into themes of love and relationships, talks s**t boldly because he knows he’s put in the work, and frequently honors his loved ones. He also doesn’t shy away from displaying his temper, which has led to legal issues for him. To match his range of emotions, the album features various music styles. Throughout it, you’ll encounter hard-hitting rap tracks, soulful slow jams, and a blend of both genres. Overall, this is a body of work that many can relate to and find enjoyable.
