R&B mainstay H.E.R. taps music heavy-hitters Pop Smoke, A Boogie Wit da Hoodie, and Chris Brown for an official remix of her “Slide” single. The original version featured YG, but we can say the record is much spicier with the new collaborators.
The record creates promotional noise for the two-time Grammy Award-winning singer/songwriter as the 2020 Grammy Awards draws near. H.E.R. is currently up for five nominations for the second year in a row: Album of the Year – I Used To Know Her, Record of the Year and Song of the Year – “Hard Place,” Best R&B Song and Best R&B Performance – “Could’ve Been” feat. Bryson Tiller. The singer/songwriter/musician was also recently nominated for four NAACP Image Awards: Outstanding Album – I Used To Know HER, Outstanding Female Artist, Outstanding Song Contemporary and Outstanding Music Video/Visual Album for “Hard Place,” and scored an iHEART nomination for R&B Artist of the Year.
“Slide (Remix)” by H.E.R. featuring Pop Smoke, A Boogie Wit da Hoodie, and Chris Brown is a compelling fusion of R&B and hip-hop, blending smooth melodies with rhythmic beats and engaging lyrical flow. The original track, known for its relaxed vibe and H.E.R.’s sultry vocals, gets a dynamic upgrade in this remix.
H.E.R. sets the tone with her soulful voice, delivering the chorus with an effortless charm that invites listeners to vibe along. Her lyrics, centered around the themes of connection and romantic escapades, create a dreamy atmosphere. Chris Brown adds his signature touch with a melodic verse that seamlessly blends with the track’s R&B essence, enhancing the romantic and laid-back feel.
Pop Smoke’s contribution brings a contrasting energy, adding a gritty, drill-inspired flavor with his deep, resonant voice. His verse infuses the remix with a streetwise edge, broadening the song’s appeal. A Boogie Wit da Hoodie further enriches the track with his melodic rap style, bridging the gap between the R&B smoothness and the harder hip-hop elements.
The production features a blend of mellow guitar riffs, steady percussion, and a catchy bassline, creating a captivating soundscape. “Slide (Remix)” stands out as a multifaceted track that showcases the unique strengths of each artist while maintaining a cohesive and enjoyable listening experience. This collaboration highlights the seamless integration of diverse musical styles, making it a standout remix in H.E.R.’s repertoire.
H.E.R. is set to take the stage once again to perform on “music’s biggest night” at the 62nd Annual Grammy Awards, airing live Sunday, January 26 on CBS.
