LAMAR WOODS - HIGHLY SENSITIVE PERSON
Manage episode 439992431 series 2286342
In the first song of his new album, Highly Sensitive Person, Lamar Woods introduces the theme in the first line of his rap: “I had my first panic attack at 35. I thought I was gonna die.”
Looks dire, right? But listen to the intro about holding the world together with love, followed by a chiming, R&Bish, slightly funky build up, then get the finish to the line about dying, which is, “like Ryan at the end of Drive,” and you don’t know what’s coming next but you know it ain’t gonna be dire.
Lamar, who has had a successful career in television and movies, has continued his return to music with this fun, funny, hugely diverse, 19-track hip-hop exploration of panic and anxiety.
His album is all about mental health, but he does it in style, and many musical styles, and with humor, including three hilarious skits.
The single released to tease the album, “Don’t Give Up On Me,” featured one aspect of high sensitivity: relationship avoidance.
