Minneapolis-based singer/producer booboo is back with her first single since last fall. "U1" is a breezy and slyly psychedelic flex.
booboo uses her voice as just another vivid color in her palette. She smears her delivery in effects (she "chipmunks" for a bit) as she spreads melodies over the skittering production. Even as the lyrics are covered in slurry reverb, the vocals' broad smoothness contrasts with a beat that sounds like what Sour Patch Kids taste like. Synths explode in a universe of tiny firecrackers and shuffling hi-hats give "U1" its effervescent momentum. booboo seems fascinated by the diverging rhythms she can create when she mixes her voice with the gleeful instrumental.
"U1" is an endlessly listenable song from an artist who refuses to be constrained. Listen below.
