Kudos to Sweet Limb for revitalizing the music scene; their rise is marked by inspiring stories of setting ambitious goals and exceeding them. There is no doubt that this genre-bending band produces hit songs. They are often asked about their genre, and it’s not the easiest to define, but that’s what makes it so special.
They proudly bathe in the ever-evolving waters of alternative and lo-fi styles, backed by gently nourished rap vocals and smooth lounge melodies. It is a genre that embodies the spirit of alternative R&B and lo-fi hip-hop, but it transcends conventional limitations. It’s an eclectic melting pot where hip-hop and R&B’s improvisational magic meets the experimental and avant-garde.
In their latest EP, “WAVES”, you’ll experience the soulful melodies, complex harmonies, and rhythmic intricacies as the band embraces that sense of freedom offered-pushing the envelope, exploring uncharted territories, and challenging the norms-which is where the innovation thrives.
There is no coast or legion that this sound is beholden to. Striking R&B hooks and cerebral wordplay are juxtaposed with mellow, gentle, yet powerful productions that wrap around the lyrics like a charm.
“Aquamayne” has an undeniable east coast vibe. The sound design is right and ideal for the poet, who displays effortless authenticity with his lyrical prowess, sliding through the track with a subtle confidence.
The beat for “Euthymia” kicks in, hits you right in the nostalgia, and makes you feel like you. The performance evokes strong feelings and has a distinctive mood. As soon as you hit the play button, you will know what to feel!
The track “Ruthless” has the most subdued instrumentation alongside a heavy lyrical narrative that openly confronts the matrix and emphasizes their selfishness and disregard for others, it is by far the smoothest on this EP.
Stream Sweet Limb’s latest EP, “WAVES”, and let the music captivate you with its polished delivery, heart, and soul.
