7 Nights

7 Nights

Introducing the hazy swirl of opener “Don’t Lie,” a sampled voice demands, “You need to make a nice song that I can listen to at nighttime, not this grime…rap…shouting stuff.” Released concurrently with hip-hop mixtape 7 Days, this R&B-flavored collection compellingly answers that request, with the South Londoners focusing their sharp raps on love and desire. Konan does a persuasive job as a velvet-voiced crooner on “For Me,” but they also recruit Jhené Aiko to add honeyed vocals and valuable female perspective to “Wrongs,” while Tory Lanez arrives to enhance the narcotic, heavy-eyed melodies of “Same Sh*t.”
