BNH Deluxe, on the go | Song Review

BNH Deluxe, assisted by Shiloh Dynasty, drops a chill, infectious earworm, “on the go,” sure to warm up frigid winter playlists. 

“So relax / ‘Cause I don’t know what’s been putting in,” BNH Deluxe (John Stephen RePass) sings on the brief but potent, “on the go”.  He continues, “Got it back / ‘Cause I don’t know if it’s there still / Want things / Want things on the go.” Word… I think.  The thing about “On the Go,” which runs under two minutes in duration, is, it’s more about the aesthetic, feel, and vibe. RePass samples Shiloh Dynasty (Ciara Nicole Simms), releasing the ultra-chill experience on ascending label, Lofuu.

“On the Go” sort of floats along – its buoyant by all means.  The enigmatic, warm instrumental and beat gives off hip-hop vibes, but think lo-fi, indie hip-hop/pop. BNH Deluxe never gets too high with his vocals remaining easygoing and grounded. The excerpted lyrics are essentially the song, followed with the repeated titular lyric. Similarly, the Shiloh Dynasty vocals, sampled and looped throughout, are sung in an undertone. The marriage of RePass, Simms, and that super chill backdrop yields a hypnotic gem in “on the go”.  It’s not deep, mind you – there are spare lyrics – but, highly mesmerizing and a potent background soundtrack if nothing else.
