Jumpin’ in the Rain

Florida rapper and singer badmonsham infuses understated instrumental simplicity with boundless emotional depth on single ‘Jumpin’ in the Rain’. The enigmatic, striking artist shows immense versatility here, offering a more introspective and subtle cut in comparison to his last single ‘Espys’. On this new track, the American musician relays a message of hope and sublimity, with bittersweet songwriting and aesthetically palatable melodies creating a tender and vibrant palette. 

The beauty of the instrumental is its restraint; revolving around nectarous acoustic guitar chords, which are allied with laidback percussion and subby, reaching bass to create a dazzling soundscape for badmonsham to perform on. The mix is like a warm cup of tea on a winter's morning. The chorus is memorable and heartfelt, with the artists deep, Southern accent sitting perfectly on the beat, and brimming with personality and emotion. The verse flows are precise and sharp, with the lyrics bursting with sentimentality and nuanced poetry. 

Radiant and nostalgic, this is a giving piece of work from an artist who has an ear for gorgeous melody and affecting, captivating songwriting. Easy listening at its very best, from an artist with some major mainstream appeal.
