As we traverse this scenery called life, we need to be reminded that every day will be different. Take it from Hollow Profit and his latest song, BLESSED NEW DAY. Let’s deconstruct this track and see how we can learn from his experiences.
BLESSED NEW DAY begins with an intriguing sample that blends new-school and old-school vibes, perfectly setting the mood for the epic mix throughout the song.
I particularly enjoy the beat of this track. It’s steady, not over the top, yet it has just the right amount of angst and flow to convey a simple yet effective message. I believe that’s how producers and artists should think. A track doesn’t need to be excessive; it just needs one characteristic that stands out. In this case, it is the flow alongside the lyrics that truly shines.
The song speaks about uplifting oneself and taking everything one step at a time. The lyrics resonate with lines like / Every day a new day / I feel blessed / All the days we’re living right now despite the stress and pain.
For me, what makes this track special is that at the 2:30 mark, there’s a beat change that perfectly reflects a shift in perspective. I appreciate the narrator’s direct approach, making it feel as though he’s speaking directly to us, the listeners, ensuring we learn something from his experience.
Overall, BLESSED NEW DAY is a track that is easy to listen to because it doesn’t have any Highfalutin words. It’s raw and it’s real.
