I hit play on "right there" and the bass pulled me in before a single word landed. That electric bassline doesn't just anchor the track, it moves, bends, talks back to the vocals like it has something to say on its own. It's the kind of groove that makes you sit up straighter.
Joey P.'s lead vocal does something particular here. The breathy upper register floats right to the edge of a whisper, then a melismatic run curls through a phrase and lands with quiet emotional weight that stopped me cold. The layered harmonies in the chorus add depth without crowding anything out. There's real space in this production, bass, drums, and keys breathing together rather than fighting for room.
The whole thing carries a lush but stripped-back feel that fits the themes running through playboy. Music about becoming someone. About arriving.
Life is good, I'm a version of myself I used to dream of. It's possible, anything and everything that you want…it's possible.
"right there" is a mid-tempo groove that doesn't rush, because it doesn't have to. Joey P. sounds like someone who's already there.
