Case Arnold's "Love Found" begins with a crackling piano sample, setting the tone for the reflective record which finds the Tennessee rapper reunited with someone from his past. Pulling inspiration from Common's "I Used To Love H.E.R.," the record finds Case looking backwards and forwards at the same time, musing on the circular tendencies of his relationships.

"During the time that I made 'Love Found,' I had just started making beats and diving into that side of myself - I was studying Dilla, Common, Badu, and The Roots just going through records and catching those vibes," he says. "As soon as the loop started the hook came to me instantly. I wrote the song with the perspective of seeing the person you love for the first time in years after not speaking. The circle that always leads back to you."

The song showcases Case's elegant use of multi-syllabic rhymes, never letting the technicality of his rhymes distract from his story-telling. Its theme plays into the concept behind his upcoming album, SO(U)L Theory, which centers around perseverance and staying true to one's self. The album is set to arrive in October. The single itself will be available on iTunes, Spotify, and all major streaming services tomorrow (September 26th).

Quotable Lyrics:
When it's cold outside, I need that month of May
You can have what you like, what you want from me
I woke up this morning, new start today
Same day I gave my heart away
