Coffee & Cigarettes

Coffee & Cigarettes is a synthpop-esque, soft rock and alternative rnb ballad. The irregular vocal echoes, obscured synths, and sparse arrangement make for the perfect reflective soundtrack. Ruff Gr8ness bewails his feelings authentically and effortlessly and yet the distinction his voice makes with the heavy bassline is unbelievably satisfying. Still, it might be the subtle sultry background adlibs laced throughout the track which really sell the coffee & cigarettes.

Reviews

On-beat sub-bass sounds, subtle falsetto howls, and lyrics featuring brash affirmations of affection mixed with vulnerable pleas of powerlessness to the force of love, make this a sure hit.

Ruff Gr8ness makes coffee and cigarettes a perfect metaphor in this song. Coffee & Cigarettes is triumphant in its ability to blend the powerful bass line, strong synths and his middle-range vocals.
