Let’s get right into this one because it is one of those hip-hop/rap jams that leave a lasting impact from the opening notes. There is an irresistible nostalgia to it, taking a cue from old-school hip-hop with subtle boom-bap influences and the two rap designers do not let the beat go to waste, making a meal off it and leaving no crumbs behind. First on the mic is the female rap queen Diamonique whose cadence is infectious, sharp, witty, and purposeful, exuding the kind of confidence you can only earn.
She is sleek and ebbs and flows in perfect sync with the mellifluent beats, her expressive words and uniquely distinct vocals something you can listen to for hours on end. Her sharp-witted flows and delivery can be compared with the best of them as she goes on to imprint her first-rate wordplay, seamlessly transitioning from one verse, one bar to the next whilst still giving the track that anthemic appeal thanks to the catchy and infectious hooks.
Dirty Birdy is next on the scene, and he makes it worth your while. He is sharp, speedy, and efficient, making his mark with vivid wordplay and striking metaphors that give the song broad appeal in terms of essence and melody.
To add to the track’s impeccable appeal, the accompanying music video is of the highest quality, and you can tell a lot of time and effort went into creating it. The high-class visuals are an extension of the track itself, stealing the attention of viewers as they bump their heads to it and put it on a loop.
So far, “Feelin Myself” has been causing a massive buzz on the international scene with so many rap heads acclaiming it not only for its nostalgic appeal but also the stylish lyrical delivery as both Diamonique & Dirty Birdy complement each other as much as the track.
“Feelin Myself” is the kind of tour de force you’d consider modern yet timeless. It is little wonder why both the old and young generations love it so much, as it bridges that gap between generations, hitting both listeners right on the spot.
