I Got You Review

I Got You by OMAR is a lighthearted and joyous pop track about relaxing around your partner. The production was the first thing that drew me to I Got You. It feels ethereal and rich while also having a nice rhythm, punctuated by heavy bass. The hi hats bounce off the melody beautifully. You can feel every aspect of the track interact with every other, highlighting their differences and emphasising their strengths with the contrast. You get the sense that this track has been meticulously designed to feel effortless and flowing. I Got You might be the perfect summer banger to take a party to the next level. Something about the carefree vibes, rich production, and confident vocal performance feels perfectly suited for a party.

The concept at the core of the track of stripping out stress in a relationship and trusting the other person feels beautifully executed. Something about the relaxed and tongue in cheek energy of the lyrics represents that cooling down of stress in a relationship, mirroring the conversations you’d have with a partner in this situation. Omar’s Vocals are confident yet light hearted. Every word is delivered with charm and grace. You get the sense from his delivery that he’s not just performing, he is really talking to this love interest. There is a candid energy to the lyrics and delivery that makes the whole track feel far more natural and immersive as a listener. The subtle effects on the vocal go further to build on this spaced out and relaxed tone established in the melody and production. The vocal runs as Omar repeats “you know you know” are really impressive, expanding the track’s rich sonic texture. Overall, I Got You has really impressed me with its clean and crisp sonic execution as well as the charismatic lead vocals and candid lyricism. It’s a summer banger with a surprising amount of heart.
