“My Role Model” is the first single off of this valuable album and is a bona fide tribute song to such a national and international iconic figure that has been performed passionately with the band wearing their hearts on their sleeves and taking the melody by its horn in what is a sound geared towards the quintessential country feel and added that futuristic vibe of diverse elements of other colorful and equally astonishing stylish genres to be felt across a wide variety of fans across the board!
The guitars are expertly piloted with artistic attention and the lead and backing vocals coming together with clarity, precision, and potency as the various voiceovers of Martin Luther King Jr. in the different sections of the track add that cinematic theme and meaning to this entrancing track. The luxurious punchy drums, the bass rhythms, the piano affluent melodies, and the tonal color added by such percussive instruments such as the violin ensure that a listener is spoilt for choice and apart from being inspired by the message on display, they are exhaustively entertained.
