SG Lewis, “Vibe Like This” | Track Review 🎵

SG Lewis, Ty Dolla $ign & Lucky Daye make a formidable team on “Vibe Like This,” a single from Lewis’ sophomore LP, AudioLust & HigherLove.

“Been around the world, I did / Never felt a vibe like this,” 🎙 Lucky Daye sings in the chorus of 🎵 “Vibe Like This”.  The 🏆 Grammy winner continues, “Might be worth the risk / To make up for the time I missed.” Honestly, listening to this single from 💿 AudioLust & HigherLove, the sophomore album by English DJ, producer, and singer-songwriter 🎙 SG Lewis, I must concur with Daye – about the vibe, that is! On “Vibe Like This,” Lewis not only tapped Daye for the assist on vocals but also the walking, ultra-versatile vibe himself, 🎙 Ty Dolla $ign. This record is absolutely glorious!

“Vibe Like This” may be best characterized as a pop record.  That said, it’s R&B-infused pop/electronic, considering both Daye and Dolla $ign are both known for R&B. This record has love and sex on the brain – that’s the vibe.  Following Daye’s chorus, Ty starts spitting game, including offering her “Crocodile Birkin, I did it for Steve Irwin /Whatever it takes to get you back, girl I’ll put the work in…” Daye echoes $ign’s sentiments in the pre-chorus – “…in your arms wish we could freeze time, I need mine / ‘Cause you’re the only one in here I wanna try” – before delivering that sweet chorus once again, this time with some help from Ty on the back half.  Ty gives us another noteworthy verse, trying to secure the P, if you catch my drift.  Beyond the vocals, theme, and lyrics, what about the production by SG Lewis? “Vibe Like This” is groovy, features a colorful palette of sounds, and easily catches the ear.  The man is a beast behind the boards.

Final Thoughts 💭

SG Lewis, Ty Dolla $ign, and Lucky Daye make a formidable team. 🎵 “Vibe Like This” is the perfect way to keep the vibe going at the end of summer going into the fall.  Ty and Lucky serve up the goods vocally, while SG kicks ass and takes names behind the boards.  What more could you ask for? This is surefire winning!
