When paired together, they provide an uncanny tease of the album’s overall concepts: lust, love and the gray areas—or dance floors—between. First up is “Vibe Like This” (with Lucky Daye and Ty Dolla $ign), a pop slow-burner that could pass off readily as an unreleased cut off Funk Wav Bounces Vol 2. Toes will tap and heads will nod as this song elevates from a twinkling piano melody into a potent blend of vocal charisma. “Been around the world, I did / Never felt a vibe like this,” Daye and Dolla $ign croon o...
