Yeah man this was our vibe in audio form when we hung out the last time.

Yall really did yall thing on this. such a strong and unique vision executed perfectly. innocent, feel good vibes conveyed in a genuine way. Its super refreshing and needed in our social climate.

tangerine love came in and hit me on a personal level. From that point on i just keep thinking back to home and my friends which to me is what the whole album is about, appreciating the beautiful good times with your friends amidst adversity and mortality. sunset music

BLACKSTARKIDS - Whatever, Man

A review by BRAVE

Fresh Thoughts
Acting Normal serves as a strong opener, giving us some of the twee yet fresh Summer pop-rock we’ve come to love after the trio’s previous project Surf. This continues with next few tracks, to the point where, despite sounding as delightful as ever, made me a little worried about it would get formulaic if it continued. But then something happened...

Friendship comes on, and the album takes a complete turn. It’s the most ambitious track thus far: the intro of different voices giving friendly dedications, the production that made me go back to Daft Punk’s Discovery, the pitched up Auto-Tune vocals in the super infectious hook, and of course the groovy beat switch. This is when the album truly picks up for me.

The single *Britney B***** continues the “leveling up” of the album from the previous track with plenty of energy , memorability and charisma. Placing the standout single right after the album hits a new high had to have been a cunning decision - one that was definitely worth it

Beatrix Kiddo holy s***. I felt like I was in a sequel to Scott Pilgrim vs the World, it’s grungey while having that signature laid back BSK vibe, and sort of a pleasant twist in the album. It will be one of the songs that stick with listeners.

Verdict
If you fell in love with BLACKSTARKIDS after Surf you’ll wanna go to Kay and blow all your fraudulent EDD benefits on a ring to propose to them after Whatever, Man. A cinematic, high energy, fun project filled to the brim with passion and a strong vision that stays consistent while showing the band’s versatility.

There’s so much sincerity and candor about youth throughout the project that even if you don’t like the way the album sounds, you can’t deny that it captures your ears - and I can’t wait for more of that sincerity from BLACKSTARKIDS in the future.
