Jhené Aiko taps fellow R&B songstress Summer Walker and rapper 21 Savage for the official remix of her single, “Triggered (Freestyle).”
Not depreciating much from the original version, on the remix, both Walker and 21 Savage infused thought-provoking lyrics about bad break-ups. 21 Savage highlights how his ex-girlfriend is with a “lame dude” now while Walker delivers for emotional heartache. Walker and Aiko’s voices blend together seamlessly, nearly indistinguishable from one another as the song progresses.
“Triggered (Freestyle)” is the latest single from Aiko and follows her 2017 LP, ‘Trip.’ Last year, she appeared on Sean Paul’s “Naked Truth” and Kris Wu’s “Freedom.” Along with releasing “Triggered (Freestyle)” this year, she sang on her ex-boyfriend Big Sean’s own break-up manifesto, “Single Again,” alongside Ty Dolla $ign. Aiko will also appear on Walker’s debut album, Over It, due out on Friday.
“Triggered (Freestyle) Remix” by Jhené Aiko featuring Summer Walker and 21 Savage is a powerful and emotionally charged track that delves into the raw complexities of relationships and personal trauma. The remix builds on the foundation of Aiko’s original freestyle, adding new layers of depth and perspective with contributions from Walker and 21 Savage.
From the start, the song’s haunting melody and minimalist production create an intimate and reflective atmosphere. Aiko’s vocals are poignant and expressive, conveying a deep sense of pain and vulnerability as she navigates through the aftermath of a tumultuous relationship. Her lyrical honesty is both compelling and relatable, touching on themes of heartbreak, anger, and self-discovery.
Summer Walker’s addition brings a complementary dynamic to the track. Her smooth and soulful voice blends seamlessly with Aiko’s, adding another dimension to the emotional narrative. Walker’s verse is equally introspective, providing a parallel perspective on the themes of love and healing.
21 Savage’s contribution adds a contrasting yet fitting element to the remix. His introspective and subdued delivery contrasts with his usual style, offering a raw and candid reflection on his own experiences with love and emotional turmoil. His verse adds a layer of complexity and depth to the remix, enriching the overall narrative.
Overall, “Triggered (Freestyle) Remix” is a standout collaboration that showcases the unique talents of Jhené Aiko, Summer Walker, and 21 Savage. The track is a deep, emotional exploration of the darker sides of love and personal growth, making it a compelling listen that resonates with anyone who has experienced the ups and downs of a passionate relationship.
