Native Youth shows versatile electro-soul feels on “Second Chances”

The Florida music scene is a bubbling genre with its rap scene growing with its own spectrum of artists such as Wifisfuneral, Smokepurpp, Prez P, and more but the R&B scene hasn’t much praise. Coming the beach lands of Miami, Native Youth stands tall as one of the principal representatives to the vibes of soul back to the South and into the mainstream forefront. Recently getting familiar with her work, it’s easy to say that her recent body of work “Second Chances” provides the perfect blend of lo-fi electric music with strong elements of soul.

TherapeuticYellowMusic: Why Amine's "GoodForYou" is for the Soul

Aminé dropped the cover art for his album on June 22nd. It features Aminé sitting naked, save his blue jeans and banana undies pooled at his ankles, atop a blue toilet, reading a Good For You Post underneath blue words proclaiming his debut album title. At first sight, the cover read, to me, as: “Let that sh*t go, it’s good for you”. Aminé stared back at me from the cover somewhat challenging my assumption of meaning from his art direction. So sitting down to listen, I kept my initial thought in mind, and naturally hoped I had foreseen the tone of the project I was about to review.
