The following four songs have very strong instrumentals, but are cluttered with weak features and experimental sounds from G-Eazy himself. Overall this song has much appreciated insight into the more human and introspective side of G-Eazy. Bebe Rexha is featured and provides beautiful vocals for the chorus.
He criticizes the lifestyle of fame and lust he has been living and wishes to return to his life before the fame.
Confidence oozes off the track and it is an amazing song to get hype to when you need a little extra motivation.Īccording to G-Eazy, the following track, “Me, Myself, and I,” is written from the perspective of his non-famous counterpart, Gerald Gillum. The verses show G-Eazy bragging on the wealth and fame he has earned in such a short time and looking forward to what he has yet to accomplish. He reminds us that his sudden rise to fame was not in fact random, but a combination of his youth, good looks and work ethic. This song is a highlight of the album and a strong opener. “Random” was easily the most anticipated song of the album, and G-Eazy does not disappoint. The slowed down and twisted instrumental builds tension before breaking into the actual album. By reciting the second verse of Dylan Thomas’ poem, “Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night,” he creates an aura of struggle and death. G-Eazy opens the album with a haunting introduction. “When It’s Dark Out” finds G-Eazy struggling with accepting his newfound fame, reflecting on his past and contemplating his legacy for the future. The album debuted at number five on the Billboard 200 list. Gerald Gillum, known by his stage name as G-Eazy, recently released his sophomore studio album, “When It’s Dark Out”, December 4, 2015.
