You might roll your eyes reading their lyrics out loud, but you suspend your disbelief the moment you press play. It’s what separates them from their peers: Ty and Jeremih are quiet album artists in a sea of single chasers, and they can make pretty much anything sound monumental and vital, even if nothing is there. Rather, as Jeremih’s masterful Late Nights and Ty’s almost as good Beach House 3 demonstrate, the two singers excel, and are excited by, longform worldbuilding and mood-making, extended scene-setting and reality-warping. Ty and Jeremih might be the two most successful and influential pop-adjacent R&B hookmen since T-Pain, but what they don’t get enough credit for is their ability to create atmosphere, their uncanny knack for pulling you headfirst into a sticky-floored, syrupy neverland of their imaginations, and their quiet commitment to, with their solo work in particular, create immersive experiences.īoth singers’ respective solo careers have sold a fraction of what their appearances on countless hit records have, yet it’s not a matter of misplaced priorities.
If anything, it’s actually making me want to drink again, buy a one way ticket to an island, and get over my ex by sleeping with someone from the club. It’s a Truman Show of epic, hedonistic proportions, where the sun is always about to set and the night always beginning to buzz-the biggest issues are girls who play hard to get, bras that take too long to unhook, bottles that don’t come quick enough.Īs someone who, as of this writing, is hungover, slightly heartbroken, and has several bills to pay in addition to many other glaring issues in his barely held together life, Ty and Jeremih’s collaborative album MihTy should be something like a slap in the face.
