The weirdness of the concept here aside, “My Time” by “Bam” is an undeniably addictive piece of music with a melody and dreamlike atmosphere that works hard to draw you in and hook you. The song’s dark and somewhat whimsical vibe is surprisingly reaching and engaging, especially for a release that uses a celebrity’s assets to explore the depth or extent of their own dreams.
Everything about the song works hard to ensure that you are thinking about it or singing it in your mind. As a Bam artist, there is a specific image and approach to creativity that inspires curiosity and curiosity. Listening to some of his previous releases, this one has a noticeably softer vibe, leaning more towards rap and hip-hop than the heavier, rap-inspired offerings of the past. The soundtrack in this case is really well crafted, the instrumental choices work perfectly, and the chord progressions have this soft melancholy, reflective mood.
Melodically the song clearly simplifies things. This decision is one that reinforces that feeling of anxiety or uncertainty again. Simple repetition further enhances this. The song has a simple sense of movement, repeating only a few distinct phases of the melody and keeping the ambience consistent despite one or two well-placed structural breaks. The more you listen, the more this initially bleak environment evolves into something hopeful and bright. Like the rap chord, you can listen in any way. The lower notes of the melody feel melancholy, and the higher ones feel optimistic. What you make of it is up to you. The artist’s sincerity is indisputable, his songs feel like diary entries, and the music is directly connected with the emotions it creates, so the reality is quite powerful.
At about one minute, the musician takes things in a whole new direction – there’s space, adding impact to what follows, and then the rhythm and energy of it all start to rise and rise, leading boldly into those final few. Moments of volume and passion. This is where the rap sound comes in – the distortion, raw excitement, and rage. The song is extraordinary for all these reasons and more. It is definitely characteristic and the performances make for a very memorable experience.
