Wide Eyed

Found Mack this year and his sophomore album showing something good for the future. Lots of great elements in the instrumentals and vocals but it feels like it's almost there. Oddly enough, both his singing and instrumentals have the same issue. They become a bit aimless. A lot of R&B loves to just vocalize with crazy melodies and I think Mack is in a bit too deep with it. Sometimes I think simple is better, and while his voice is solid, the crazy melodies he sings and harmonizes with lose me a bit. The instrumentals have somewhat, the same issue where they seem to just do stuff. Like no real purpose to the progression.
