“LUVERBOI” Tracklist:

· Want Me Or Not
· Blinded Me With Science (Bonus track)
“LUVERBOI,” released on February 14, 2023, is a six-track collection of love songs he’d been working on for several years. The EP’s opener and debut single, “Feelz,” sets the tone nicely for what’s to come. By immersing the listener in their “feels,” it sets the tone for the rest of the EP. A mellow, laid-back, and melancholy track that recounts an all-too-human story of grief and pain. “Wonderland,” which follows “Feelz,” keeps the same chilled-out and mellow tone, with some hypnotic guitar work by Donn Chii.
Donn Chii, who draws inspiration from Big Sean, Juice WRLD, and Post Malone, is eager to stress that he surrenders to the rhythm and allows it to dictate his course. Donn Chii does not attempt to develop the emo hip-hop genre; rather, he attempts to create the mood for a certain song. “Get Me Thru” and “Dream” are both excellent examples of this.
The song “Want Me Or Not,” which features Lenci’s incredible vocals, stands out in particular. The song immediately grabs the listener’s attention with a catchy electric guitar melody and an incredible baseline. I could not help but nod my head along with the incredible lyrics of the song because of how lovely Lenci’s voice is. Lenci sings, “come on come on baby stop playing games if you want me and I am feeling strong is coming on baby tell me baby if you want me to stop, I’m not afraid of who be judging on my intuition,” in the lyrics, which are skillfully written. It’s impossible to ignore the emotion and strength in her voice.
Additionally, Donn Chii’s songwriting prowess is on full display in this song. His voice is exceptional and amazing, and it perfectly complements Lenci’s voice to produce a lovely, heartfelt song. The song has excellent production, and the two artists’ voices blend perfectly, creating a track that will undoubtedly touch many people’s hearts.
“Blinded Me With Science,” the EP’s last song and a Bonus track, demonstrates Donn Chii’s impressive abilities as a rapper and lyricist. Donn delivers the opening rap verse with assurance and finesse over a powerful hip-hop beat that hooks listeners right away. Donn describes the strength of love and its capacity to enthrall and overwhelm us throughout the song with clever wordplay and metaphors. “She blinded me with science and showed me new technology,” is repeated in the chorus, giving the song a catchy and enduring quality. A thrilling electric guitar riff that enters the mix as the song nears its conclusion gives it even more energy and intensity than it already has.
“Blinded Me With Science” is a positive song that’s brimming with vibe and energy, and it’s sure to instantly make a lot of people happy. Even though the song is only 1 minute, 59 seconds long, it’s the ideal way to cap off this incredible EP. Donn Chii, being both the producer and the artist, deserves recognition for creating this EP because of the superb production.
Overall, anyone who enjoys R&B and hip-hop should listen to Donn Chii’s “Luverboi” EP. The EP displays the artist’s distinctive aesthetic, talent, and adaptability. The production is excellent, and the lyrics are heartfelt and relatable. This EP is one of the best releases of the year so far, thanks to the incredible performances by Donn Chii, Lenci, and Fine Ivy, who are featured on it.
