Stream DJ Mustard’s Dope EDM/Urban Travis Scott-Assisted New Single “Whole Lotta Lovin’” Now!
The huge surprise collaboration DJ Mustard had been teasing for so many days is finally here. It premiered on Apple Music’s Beats 1 radio this Thursday morning (January 7th). The much-hyped song is titled “Whole Lotta Lovin’” and it is a collaboration with rapper Travis Scott (yey?). “This definitely must be an “Anti” reject”, I thought to myself before giving “Whole Lotta Lovin’” a first listen. But like an “Anti” reject it sounds not. “Whole Lotta Lovin’” is an EDM banger!
If this is from an upcoming DJ Mustard album, I couldn’t care less, but I’m actually getting a little bit of LIFE from this song. Yes, “Whole Lotta Lovin’” may be sexist much (“I got you and that's all that I need / When I wake in the morning / For a whole lotta lovin'”) but this is pretty much the common norm for all rap songs so I won’t get bothered. Travis’ auto tuned singing was a pleasant surprise, and his fasting singing/rap moments were “dope”. And what about DJ Mustard’s production? I mean, he knew he was going to get slammed by the whole Internet if he dared to give us another one of his tired and old-already urban beats, so he did the intelligent and kept it a little bit fresh and in-the-moment with the sound of “Whole Lotta Lovin’”. He went from boring urban productions to really sleek production that is this cross between EDM music and urban. The final result, - that is, the song we’re hearing today – is fabulous. DJs need to get a copy of this ASAP. Good 2016 kick-off, DJ Mustard!
