Single Review: Wud?

Wud? is a new track from JAN featuring Anna Bennetto and Sam Higham. Best described as chilled trap, in that it’s got a cool vibe about it with the signature hi-hat feel, this song really understands what it wants to do. It is a stand-out for me in that Wud? is ultimately taking elements from some other areas like vocal pop, soul, and of course, trap, and melds it together in a way that works very well.

The reverb and delay laden guitar with its EQ slightly tilted in the intro to give the beginning a vinyl sound is a nice touch. When everything comes together with wonderfully recorded vocals, catchy hook and its chilled beat filled with music, it ends up sounding perfect for radio play. It’s not aggressive in any way, it’s simply a dialogue between two people both asking questions to each other.

Wud? is not ground-breaking by any stretch of the imagination, but its enjoyable and relaxed vibe will give it mass appeal.
