Valentine’s Day Album Review
Those who were expecting a rap heavy album from the Goddess of Rap were justifiably upset when Skyler Valentine-Griffin’s “Valentine’s Day” dropped on February 14th.’Valentine’s Day’ over all has a pop and R&B feel, with only a few rap tracks sprinkled in. Skyler has been known to experiment with her music and sound before, however it doesn’t seem like we were ready for a complete change like the one she just did. The album is likely to be equally divisive, and often seemed more like a low-key mixtape than of the most-anticipated records of 2020. Still, there are moments of brilliance, which we’ll explore in a track-by-track review.
1.‘Feeling Myself’ feat. Maya Karim
Like a great opera or short play, "Feeling Myself" has a beginning, a middle, and an end. First, there's tough Skyler, who delivers masturbation puns and an indictment of competitors who aren't even in her tax bracket, all in the same sentence. And then there's sassy Skyler, who boasts about sexual prowess while still flexing on her rivals: "Bitches ain't got punchlines or flow/ I have both, and an empire, also." Softening out the flex heavy song, Maya becomes a mediator between Sky’s personality shifts, cooing out a sultry hook that keeps the vibe soft seductive and smooth. The track is playful and fun, while also keeping in style with the Rap Goddess that we all know and love. If the rest of the album followed this style, it would probably have been better received by the fans and critics
2. ‘Never Ending’
In what seems like it came out of no where, an acoustic guitar ballad that could have been sung by almost anyone in the last decade comes next. It does feature the affecting line “I knew your face once but now it’s unclear” and the song isn’t bad but it sits quite uncomfortably as the next track following ‘Feeling Myself’.
3.’If It’s Loving That You Want’
This one was a vast improvement from ‘Never Ending’, and it’s R&B style plays well to connoting a summer-esque theme when you hear it. Skyler’s vocal ability in the song is average, although she does have some shining moments, overall, the song has simple, pleasant vocals, but her voice sounds too light and thin at times. The composition of the track that really makes it stand out, and it is pleasurable to the ear.
4.’That La,La, La’
In what sounds like a clap back at the media for the headlines about Blaize’s infidelity and any other ladies who are wanting to take their shot at him, Skyler croons ‘What me and he have got is solid as a rock, so take your shot/Don't even waste your time/'Cause a love like ours is hard to find.’. It appears to hit its target, but overall the song is repetitive and sounds too much like the baseless music that has flooded our airwaves over the years. It’s forgettable.
5.’Crazy Little Thing Called Love’
In ‘Crazy Little Thing Called Love’ Skyler explores never having felt this type of love in her life and she can’t even express the exactness of it to her fellow friends. She’s so in love that it makes her do and feel the craziest, when it’s never been something she’d do. We can guess that this song was written about her husband, Blaize Griffin and their marriage as it reportedly wasn’t supported by that many people originally. Over all, it’s average as a song, but the lyrics are nice.
6.’Selfish Girl’
Skyler throws us back to a pre marriage and baby time when her and Blaize kept us all on our toes with their on and off again relationship while still managing to show us all yet again that they were end game, after all. It’s a cute song, and she has some nice vocals in it.
7. ‘Hate That I Love You’
This R&B song comes out smooth like butter and leaving tingles down our backs. Skyler delivered a catchy, breezy duet. It really shows off the vocals that Sky is capable of, despite the lack of them displayed on this album thus far.
8. ‘ Sell Me Candy’
“Sell Me Candy" features jumbled and noisy production with chaotic beats. I don’t know what she was thinking with this one, but it’s a definite flop.
9. ‘Rehab’
With its pillowy acoustic guitars and strings and rattling percussion, "Rehab" is definitely one of the favorite’s from this album. Skyler’s vocals are warm and smooth, while also being hauntingly beautiful.
10. ‘Question Existing’
‘Question Existing’ instantly conveys an eerie, smoky, destitute, emotional, and a sonic sidestep from the Skyler we all know and love. To hear from a softer, more personal side from the Rap Goddess who frequently boasts her superiority to her competitors is a shocking change, but she pulls it off well.
11. ‘iPhone’ Feat. King
King and Skyler Valentine-Griffin have proved that they work very well together over the years. "iPHONE," is an infectious hit that will undoubtedly be in heavy rotation for the rest of the year. King and Sky rap about their side pieces, and opt to place their side dish over the love of their main. King lays down a truly catchy chorus, a talent that he has exhibited in the past, and also gives fans a comical yet realistic verse, and Skyler comes through for the second verse and employs a rapid flow to illustrate her love life. Sky sounds more like her old self than almost anywhere else on this album, with the exception of ‘Feeling Myself’ and ‘Yikes’,which is welcoming to hear. This collaboration works very well. It's rare that a hip-hop song finds strength in both the lyrics and the instrumental in 2020, but it delivers both immaculately.
12. ‘Yikes’
Skyler asserts that despite this different style, she is still the Queen of Rap as she fires jabs at her haters. The song is catchy, and we wish we would have heard more like it on the album.
Overall, we give the album a 3/5, but it’s only mediocre, and kind of a let down from what we were all expecting from the talented Skyler.
