To Infinity
I think it’s both beautiful and moving when you can’t quite box an artist in.
Big up Momo, man!!
I connected with this record on multiple levels.
Sonically, I felt like it moved through folk, dream pop, indie pop, even touches of baroque pop. Love how she was naturally blending everything. Country, alternative pop, even subtle R&B elements.
Never once felt forced.
Really fucked with the cinematic/melancholic tone she carried throughout the record. Immediately fell in love with the acoustic-based arrangements. Something grounding about them. Lyrics felt extremely relatable but not surface-level. Felt like there was intention behind them, but they’re still easy to sit with.
What makes this project hit, for me, is that it feels like you’re watching an artist bloom in real time. For me, you really get a sense of who she is as an artist, through this record. This shit feels like her truly stepping away and becoming her own entity outside of Infinity Song.
Not in a way that distances her from the group, but in a way that actually deepens your appreciation for them as a collective.
This project actually pushed me into an unexpected, unplanned deep dive into Infinity Song’s catalog. Not even on purpose, just naturally happened. This joint made me slow down and really listen to them as a collective in a different way. I found myself paying more attention to the details, the arrangements, the individuality within the group.
This record added context.
It made me appreciate the chemistry, the intention, and what they’ve been building that much more.
In the most respectful way, this feels like one of those moments, like when Justin Timberlake, Paul Simon, or Gwen Stefani stepped into their own lanes. Even thinking about Sade, that kind of transition where it’s not about leaving something behind, it’s about expanding what you already loved.
Ironically, knowing she recently worked with Keem makes even more sense after hearing this record. I connect to her music in a similar way. I’m drawn to that diversity, that willingness to move across genres and emotions within a single project. At this point in life, I need that range. I want to hear the complexity in an artist. There’s really no excuse not to tap into that if you’re fully connected to your artistry.
Humans are layered by nature, and the best music reflects that. This project does.
Overall, this just feels like a beautiful offering. It’s always a blessing catching an artist right as things are starting to take off. It reminds me of being tapped in during the blog era, discovering artists like early Cole, Wale, Wiz or Dot before they became household names.
That’s the energy this gave me.
