    Ripper Roo HIT ME HARD AND SOFT

    Nov 23, 2022
    Just watched the Do Better video. That 4K quality was amazing, and the grayscale really fit the vibe of the song well. Him jumping off the roof of that building to k--- himself and then that being reversed at the end was powerful as the idea of “doing better” echoes in the background.

    It’s a very relatable song, and you can feel his every word. I’ve been thinking for a while that we all need to do better as a society. Lately I’ve been looking in the mirror and thinking I need to do better with my life as well. Zacari’s background vocals are a great addition.

    The lines “Hidin' from the same world that made me who I am, depressed, can't even get out of bed” really stuck out to me and hit hard as it’s very relatable to me. As always, Ab-Soul showcases great lyricism on this track. The hook is already stuck in my head after one listen. If the rest of the album is on this level or near it, it’s going to be amazing.

    Tbh I wish I held off. Been listening to them on repeat since they came out, and I usually try hold off untill the album.

    If I was you I would just watch the video of 'Do Better' to build some hype. Everything about it is a master piece.

    3 for 3.

    No one is more primed for a classic album than Soulo right now
