iLoveMakonnen's self-titled EP still sounds as great as it ever did, and by the sounds of his new single, the follow-up should be just as memorable. "Second Chance" is a ballad that measures up with Makonnen's best love songs, but his dissonant piano chords have been replaced with a glossy DJ Mustard bounce, aligning it with the current RnBass trend while still keeping the singer's singular vocal style as the driving force.
The track finds Makonnen reminiscing on a former flame, complimenting his own hook with some nuanced backing vocals, and proving his songwriting is only growing more complex. The iLoveMakonnen 2 EP is out November 20th through OVO Sound.
Quotable Lyrics:
'Cause you remember when
I would leave my friends
To spend some time
And hear what's on your mind
I would sneak from your mom
I'd put kisses on your arm
You would hold my man
Said I was your only man
[Via Fader]
